المطالبة باسترداد الرسوم المدفوعة إلى دائرة الأراضي والأملاك بدبي بعد تبديل العقار بآخر

Dear questioner,

DLD will not refund any paid fees for the registration or deregistration of a unit. You can try to claim 4% from the developer only.

Contact us via phone or email to provide you with legal advice or legal services.

Dear questioner,

Did you complete the transaction with the DLD? do you have any receipts from DLD for the 4% you have paid?

If not, it means that the transaction did not reach the stage of registration and you can claim the funds from the developer, unless otherwise agreed.

In case you have the DLD receipts, and the property has been registered with them, you cannot claim the 4% from the DLD, but this supposes to be part of your settlement with the developer as mentioned in the agreement between you.

If there is no such clause in the termination agreement or amendment to the previous agreement (depends on the documents you have signed) between you and the developer, we have to serve the developer with a legal notice, requesting them to return the 4% or to offset that amount from the funds they are requesting for the new unit.

Please feel free to contact me via email.

Best Regards,

Raluca Gatina

You can contact the developer to transfer the fee to the new unit or return it to you as part of the cancellation settlement.

You can contact us via e-mail.

If the previous property is registered, then you will get that amount unless you enter into an agreement with the developer to adjust that amount with the pending payment.

For any queries, you may contact us via phone or email.

Thanks!
