8 متاح 8 • عرض الجميعماذا أفعل إذا لم أتمكن من تجديد عقد الإيجار الخاص بي لأن العقار محظور؟

2
س: مرحبًا،
مستأجر شقة في دبي (ملكية حرة)، وينتهي العقد خلال أقل من 90 يومًا.
يقول المالك إنه غير قادر على تجديد العقد بدون تحديد سبب. كما لم يُخطرني من خلال أي قناة رسمية.
أجريت بعض المراجعات من خلال دائرة الأراضي والأملاك بدبي/مركز فض المنازعات الإيجارية واكتشفت أن هناك دعوى سارية لدى مركز فض المنازعات الإيجارية وأن العقار مدرج على أنه "عقار محظور".
تبين حالة الدعوى أن معاملة البيع محظورة، وأن معاملات إيجاري محظورة أيضًا (كان المالك يحاول البيع منذ مدة) منذ رفع الدعوى.
ما خياراتي نظرًا لأنني بصفتي مستأجرًا ليس لدي أي معرفة رسمية بأي من هذه الأمور ولدي النية الكاملة لتجديد عقدي؟

Early termination of a lease without a proper tenancy agreement
3
Q: Hi,
A security deposit of AED 3,500 was paid to the landlord when I moved in and rental payment for each month was monthly. I moved out for personal reasons 4.5 months later and all rental payments were made for my time there.
At the time of viewing the room, it is being claimed that the landlord stated the minimum term was 6 months, which was never put in writing or was it ever confirmed I would lose my deposit even when I gave my 30 days notice. There is no contract or correspondence to confirm any of this.
The landlord lives in the property and is refusing to return any of my deposit. She is ignoring me now by blocking my number. I even offered her just over AED1,000 as a pro rata settlement as a goodwill gesture, but that is when she blocked me after she read it. I refused her 50/50 offer.
If filing a complaint can cost AED 2.5k-3k where do I stand it seems like a pointless exercise, I don't think RERA will look at it? Do I go to the police? I'd prefer to avoid this option.
Thanks

إنهاء المالك لعقد الإيجار بسبب عدم قيام المستأجر بتسجيله في "إيجاري"
5
س: مرحبًا،
لقد أجرت مستودعي في القوز (دبي) منذ شهرين، وما زال المستأجر لا يقوم بتسجيل العقد في "إيجاري" والتي هي مسؤولية المستأجر.
لقد ذكّرتهم مرات عديدة ولا أريد أن يتم تغريمي من الحكومة.
السبب في أنني أرسلت لك رسالة هو أنني أريد حقًا معرفة ما إذا كان هناك أي فرصة لأن أتمكن من إنهاء العقد مع المستأجرين.
لدي بعض العملاء الذين هم على استعداد لاستئجار المكان وسيدفعون لي سعرًا أفضل.
هل يمكن لأي شخص أن ينصحني بشأن هذه المسألة؟
مع التحية

When rental contracts expire: How to handle building access suspension?

1
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
Is it possible for building management to suspend access to the building in the case of a non-renewed contract?
Our rental contract in Dubai recently expired, and the building management has disabled our access cards for the main entrance, parking, and amenities such as the gym and pool.
We have been in contact with the owner for at least one month prior to the contract's expiry to follow up on the renewal. The delay is due to the owner's end, and we have documented this through email.
What steps can we take to ensure uninterrupted access to the building facilities?

Blocked Ejari due to landlord's unpaid charges - How to renew the lease?
2
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
I am unable to renew my Ejari because my apartment is blocked in the system. The landlord has not been paying service charges to the developer for some time, which is the reason for the blockage.
The landlord is in dispute with the developer and is unlikely to settle his dues anytime soon. Consequently, I cannot renew my Ejari until the landlord pays the service charges.
Is it possible to renew my Ejari without the landlord settling his dues?
Can the landlord increase my rent beyond the RERA rent increase cap, considering I do not have a renewed Ejari?
Can the landlord evict me without prior notice?
Please note that I had an Ejari from the previous year, but I cannot renew it this year.

ما هي حقوقي كمستأجر في دبي إذا تم حظر إيجاري؟

2
س: سيدي/سيدتي،
لقد انتقلت للتو إلى شقة جديدة كمستأجر. تم التوقيع على عقد الإيجار من قبل جميع الأطراف (المالك وأنا)، وتم التوقيع على الشيكات وتقديمها (تم صرف الشيكات الأربعة الأولى).
لقد حاولت الحصول على إيجاري باستخدام تطبيق REST وموقع دائرة الأراضي والأملاك في دبي وشخصيًا في الأكشاك، ولكن تم رفضها/حظرها بسبب قضية قانونية بين المستأجر السابق والمالك السابق (انتقلت في اليوم الذي اشترى فيه المالك الجديد العقار).
يريد المالك الجديد طردي ويقول إنني يجب أن أغادر. بدون إيجاري، لم أتمكن من تسجيل عقد الإيجار، ولا يمكنني حتى الحصول على ديوا (يوجد حاليًا باسم المالك الجديد الذي يهدد بإغلاقه).
يقول المالك أنه نظرًا لعدم وجود إيجاري، فليس لدي حقوق ويجب أن أغادر.
هل يجب عليّ المغادرة كما يقول المؤجر؟ هل هناك مسار عمل يمكنني اتباعه؟

Can the building management ask me to pay the one-year expenses for non-registration of Ejari?


0
Q: My building asked the tenants to register for the empower portal after 1 year of tenancy.
After my lease renewal, I asked the management team to provide me the Ejari and they stated I have to pay for the non-registration period (the 1 year before empowering registration) to the landlord, otherwise, I won't get the Ejari.
Am I supposed to pay for that period?

How to cancel the brokerage management contract of a property to be able to rent it?



0
Q: I'm currently in the process of leasing the property and as part of the standard procedure, we attempted to register the tenancy on the Ejari system.
However, we encountered a persistent error message indicating that the property is currently managed by an independent brokerage agency.
In an effort to resolve this matter promptly, we reached out to the broker company and were informed that a payment of AED 300 is required to process the Ejari registration.
In good faith, we transferred the requested amount to facilitate the registration process.
To our surprise, the broker company has since communicated that they have applied for the cancellation of the management contract for the said property and are now requesting to return the AED 300.
Despite their assurance of canceling the contract, we are still unable to register the property on the Ejari system.
Given the urgency of the situation and the fact that the tenant's move-in date was January 15, 2024, we are seeking legal advice.

Can the landlord send me an eviction notice for non-payment despite submitting an offer and deposit at RDC? 0
I’ve lived in my building for over 4 years, with the most recent rent being AED 50,000. Each year, the management collects cheques and extra AED 2,400–2,500 cash (no receipt) for management and Ejari fees.
My contract was due for renewal on 15 Feb 2025, but management delayed, demanding a 10% rent increase even though no formal 90-day notice and the RERA index did not allow it.
After a month of excuses, the manager called on 12 March, insisted increase to 55K, and threatened eviction if I refused. When I referenced RDC, he hung up. The next day, he again made unprofessional remarks, so I decided to go with RDC.
I submitted my offer and deposit on 13th March, but the management didn’t respond. The case went to the judge on 14 April he ruled in my favor.
On 30 April, I applied for the execution of the ruling, and RDC says I can renew Ejari only on 8th May at DLD with cheques given to them.
However, on 1st May 2025, I received a notarized eviction notice for non-payment of rent and communication.
My question is, what will happen at DLD now?

Can I resign during the probation period without serving a three-month notice to take another job? 0
I am working in the private sector, and currently I am in the probation period. I got a government job, so I submitted a one-month resignation notice.
My current company rejected my one-month notice and ordered me to serve a three-month notice (as per the contract).
I enquired with One Time Centre, and as per their advice, after one month, I can stop work and register a complaint against my company.
For this matter, how will the UAE law help me to solve it?

Can the employer force the housmaid to work for unlimited hours without rest? 0
Hi
I'm a nanny, and at the same time, I work as a housemaid (khadama) here in the house. I work, but as I know, the nannies and housemaids have different rights, and my employer doesn't give me rest.
My work starts at 7:30 am and then finishes at 10 pm or less. It depends on whether the baby is asleep or what time they will take on me if not yet asleep. Is this right?
Also, at the time of eating, I'm still working because the baby is with me, so I just let her sit in her chair. That's how I eat.
Please answer me. I want to know my rights.
Because if I can leave during the 6-month probation, I want to take it if the employer is this kind. I don't know.
They are also expats, but they don't follow the rules of the UAE regarding a housemaid.

My landlord vacated the property with 12 months' notice, stating he would live there himself.
However, he started renting the property through the holiday homes system.

Can I file a case against a friend for privacy breach if he claimed I scolded him for his act? 0
On Jan 2, 2025, one of my close friends did a privacy breach and recorded me and my van in some specific place.
On Feb 5, when I called and asked him why he did this to me, he went and gave a complaint that I scolded him and threatened him.
The same case was later closed by the PP when we negotiated outside the station and apologized.
At this juncture, can I file a privacy breach case against him, which happened on Jan 2, 2025, and on Feb 5 I scolded him only for the privacy breach that happened on Jan 2?

Getting my children back from the UAE after my ex-husband took them to avoid divorce 1
Hello,
I'm in Canada, and I filed for divorce. My husband, who owns a real estate company in Abu Dhabi, kidnapped our children and took them to the UAE to avoid the divorce and force me back to him.
My children are twin boys, 8 years old, and a 10-year-old girl. What can I do?
I want to follow them and take my children back, but he says his local Emirati connections will file criminal cases against me and have me jailed if I go there. What can I do remotely?
Does the UAE return kidnapped children to their mother? In the UAE, a guardian cannot legally kidnap their own child; what does this mean for my case?
If I report him, what happens to my children? Will they be held until I arrive to take them?

The public prosecution appealed a judgment to increase the fine I already paid. What do I do now? 0
Good afternoon,
Thank you for your time.
The public prosecution appealed my judgment (a fine that I satisfactorily cleared) and requested increasing the fine.
Can you please explain what happens during a criminal case appeal hearing for me as a defendant?
Will I be asked questions?
Is the hearing just for the Public Prosecution to present their appeal to the judge, and I do not need to give a response?
Thank you again for your time.
