What’s Included in Property Ownership Transfer

Complete Legal Handling of Your Real Estate Transaction

Property ownership transfer in Dubai is the official legal process of registering a change in ownership with the Dubai Land Department (DLD). It applies to various scenarios, such as property sale, gifting between family members, inheritance, or transfers between business entities.

The process requires document verification, official approvals, and issuing an updated Title Deed reflecting the new legal owner in the DLD system.

EGSH manages the entire property transfer process, ensuring compliance with all DLD regulations, preparing required documents, and overseeing every step from the digital issuance of the updated Title Deed.
