How to Register Ejari in Dubai

Ejari registration should reflect the signed tenancy—not a different rent, property or party name.

Quick answer: Start with the official service below, use the checklist for your exact case and keep every reference number. Requirements can differ by applicant, vehicle, property or institution.

Check the contract before upload

Confirm the landlord and tenant names, property number, dates, annual rent, payment schedule and included parking or storage. The title or management information should match the property record. Resolve discrepancies before registration.

Prepare the current requirements

Use Dubai Land Department’s live e-service or an authorised registration channel. Have the signed tenancy contract and identity/property documents requested for your case. Corporate landlords, representatives and subleases can require extra authority documents.

Review the generated record

Before paying, inspect the property details and contract period. After approval, download the Ejari certificate and check the contract number, parties and dates. Keep it with the signed lease, payment proof and handover report.

Avoid unofficial shortcuts

Do not send a full identity pack to an unverified messenger account. Use DLD’s official service directory to confirm channels and fees. If the contract is renewed, changed or cancelled, use the matching DLD process instead of editing an old certificate.

Check the live authority page immediately before submitting. Service options, requirements and charges can change.
