Dubai, UAE

Is a non-renewable residential tenancy contract legal in Dubai?

My landlord is insisting on putting a new line in the addendum stating that the contract is not renewable.

Thank you.

When is the tenancy contract going to be expired?

The tenancy contract has already expired. He does not want to renew unless we accept that.

Yes, it can be if both parties have agreed so, or else, it could be added as per the law with a prior three months notice.

The tenancy contract already expired, he does not want to renew.

As such, the contract is not subject to renewal only if you sent him a renewal notice 3 months prior to the end of the contract.

Kindly contact me on my phone for further clarifications.
