What happens if the Ejari has expired but the tenancy contract has been renewed?

21 Nov 2024, 09:38

If your Ejari registration has expired while your tenancy contract has been renewed, it is crucial to understand that this can lead to legal complications, difficulties in asserting tenant rights, and challenges in accessing utility services.

To rectify this, confirm with your landlord about renewing the Ejari, gather the required documents, either register or renew the Ejari online or in person, pay the applicable fees, maintain open communication with your landlord, and consider seeking legal advice if necessary.

Hello,

Ejari is a government-regulated system in the UAE designed to formalize rental agreements and enhance transparency and accountability between landlords and tenants.

Ejari ensures that tenants' rights are protected by creating a transparent and official record of the lease terms.

This includes the duration of the lease, the rent amount, and the agreed-upon payment schedule. If a tenant refuses to pay rent, the landlord can present the Ejari contract as evidence of the terms agreed upon by both parties.

If rent payments are not made, or if there is a disagreement regarding arrears, Ejari provides a clear foundation for either party to take legal action through the Rental Dispute Center (RDC) or the relevant authority in other emirates.

Ejari is a mandatory registration system for all tenancy contracts in Dubai. It is administered by the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) and aims to regulate the rental market and protect the rights of both landlords and tenants.

If a disagreement arises regarding vacating the property, the Ejari contract outlines the notice period required by both parties.

The tenant must give the landlord sufficient notice before vacating, and the landlord must ensure that the property is returned in good condition.

If there is a dispute regarding rent payments, the Ejari contract clearly states the due dates and payment terms.

In case of non-payment, the landlord can take legal action based on the terms of the contract and the provisions of Dubai's tenancy laws.

If you need further clarification, you may ask us.

Thank you for your inquiry regarding Ejari!

Ejari is a mandatory system in Dubai designed to register tenancy contracts. Its primary purpose is to ensure transparency and regulate the relationship between landlords and tenants, providing legal recognition and protection for both parties.

In case of disagreements, such as disputes over vacating the property or rental payments, an Ejari-registered contract is essential.

It serves as a legally binding document that can be presented to relevant authorities or courts to resolve disputes. Without Ejari, both the landlord and tenant may face challenges in enforcing their rights.

To better understand your situation and provide tailored advice, I’d recommend a consultation. Feel free to reach out to me via WhatsApp or phone. You can also email me at [---------]. I’d be happy to assist further.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
