Ejari Cancellation

Ejari cancellation in Dubai is required when a tenancy contract ends or is no longer valid. You must cancel Ejari in the following cases: — Upon the expiry of the tenancy contract, the tenant vacates the property. — When the tenancy contract is terminated early by mutual agreement. — After the property is sold and the new owner requests tenancy deregistration. — If the property remains vacant and the landlord wishes to clear the rental record. Ejari cancellation ensures the property is legally deregistered in the Dubai Land Department (DLD) system and prevents future disputes over tenancy status. EGSH assists with full Ejari deregistration in compliance with DLD rules.

You can cancel Ejari in Dubai either online or through an authorised Real Estate Services Trustee Centre: — To cancel Ejari online, use the Dubai REST app, the DLD website, or the Ejari system. You’ll need to log in, select the tenancy cancellation service, and submit your documents. — For in-person cancellation, visit EGSH with your Emirates ID, tenancy contract (if still valid), and power of attorney (if applicable). We will verify your documents and process the Ejari cancellation through official DLD systems. Both options ensure your Dubai tenancy cancellation is registered legally, preventing future liabilities. EGSH completes the entire process in one visit with full legal compliance.

You can complete Ejari cancellation online through the Dubai REST app or the Ejari system by following these steps: — Create an account on the Dubai REST app or log in if you already have one, then select the tenancy cancellation service. — Fill in the required details and upload supporting documents, such as your Emirates ID and tenancy contract (if applicable). — Apply to the platform. — Wait for review by a DLD officer. — Once approved, you will receive an email confirmation of your Ejari cancellation. To ensure fast processing and avoid submission errors, you can complete the Ejari cancellation through EGSH. Our team prepares your application correctly and submits it via the official DLD systems.

Under RERA regulations, either party may terminate a tenancy contract in Dubai upon expiry or by mutual agreement. Early termination must follow the terms outlined in the contract—unilateral cancellation without legal grounds may lead to penalties or disputes. For landlords, Ejari cancellation online must be completed after the tenant vacates, using the Dubai REST app or via an authorised Trustee Centre. This ensures proper deregistration and avoids issues with future lease registrations. If the tenancy ends due to property sale, Dubai tenancy cancellation must be initiated by the new owner or authorised representative. Valid documents must support all terminations, and fees apply depending on the cancellation channel used.

The Ejari cancellation cost depends on the method of submission. If you apply through the online Ejari cancellation system (e.g., via the Dubai REST app), the service is free of charge. If the application is submitted through a Real Estate Services Trustee Centre, the fee is AED 40 plus VAT, as set by the Dubai Land Department (DLD). EGSH assists with Ejari cancellation, ensuring that all documents are correct and the process is completed without delays.

To cancel an Ejari in Dubai, the following documents are required: Original tenancy contract (if still valid), Emirates ID of the landlord or authorised applicant, Power of Attorney (if applying through a representative), Title deed (in case of Ejari removal after sale). EGSH verifies all documents and applies directly to DLD, ensuring full compliance with the cancellation tenancy in RERA requirements.

You can check the Ejari cancellation status through the same channel used for submission — either the online system or the Real Estate Services Trustee Centre. If you applied through EGSH, your consultant will monitor the request and inform you once the cancellation is confirmed.

A tenancy contract cancellation letter is not mandatory for Ejari cancellation in Dubai. The Dubai Land Department (DLD) does not require it as part of the standard documentation. However, it may be requested in exceptional cases, such as early termination or disputes. EGSH confirms the specific requirements based on your case and applies directly to DLD for a smooth cancellation process.

Once the tenant vacates the property, the landlord (or an authorised representative) must initiate Ejari cancellation to officially close the tenancy record with the Dubai Land Department (DLD). This is a mandatory step to avoid future liability or issues with new registrations. EGSH handles the entire cancellation process on your behalf — verifying documents, submitting the request, and ensuring that the Ejari record is officially removed from the DLD system.

If the property was leased at the time of sale, the Ejari must be cancelled to reflect the change in ownership and remove the previous tenancy record from the Dubai Land Department (DLD) system. This process ensures that the new owner can register a fresh tenancy without legal or technical complications. EGSH assists with cancelling the existing Ejari by verifying the required documents and submitting the cancellation request directly to DLD.
