Key Aspects of Property Ownership Transfer in Dubai

The property ownership transfer is one of the key real estate registration services administered by the Dubai Land Department (DLD) under Law No. (7) of 2006 Concerning Real Property Registration in the Emirate of Dubai. It formalises the legal transfer of ownership between parties and ensures that the new owner is officially recorded in the DLD’s real estate register.

This service applies to all forms of ownership change, including property sale transactions, inheritance transfers, gifting, and corporate ownership changes. It covers all categories of Dubai real estate, including residential villas, apartments, land plots, buildings and commercial properties.

Legal Effect of Property Ownership Transfer

Upon completion, the new owner receives a new Title Deed and e-map, confirming the successful transfer of property ownership.

Completing the ownership transfer in the UAE provides the legal basis for the new owner to use, sell, lease, or mortgage the property. Residents and non-residents can complete the process, provided all the necessary documents are submitted by the seller and the buyer in accordance with DLD property transfer procedures.

At EGSH, an authorised Real Estate Services Trustee Centre, ownership transfers are processed directly through the DLD system. Our consultants verify documents, collect fees, and complete the entire registration in a single visit.

Government Fees for Real Estate Ownership Transfer

The official Dubai Land Department fees for the ownership transfer are as follows:

AED 250 – for each issued Title Deed (ownership certificate)
AED 100 – for a land plot map outside the Dubai Municipality jurisdiction
AED 225 – for a unified land map with Dubai Municipality
AED 250 – for an apartment map
AED 250 – for a villa map
AED 10 Knowledge Fee and AED 10 Innovation Fee per drawing

In addition, the Dubai property transfer fee includes a 4% DLD transfer fee on the property’s declared value. All payments can be made via cash, cheque, credit card, or ePay, with an official electronic receipt issued immediately after settlement.

Where Property Ownership Transfer Can Be Completed

Applications for real estate ownership transfer in Dubai may be submitted through the following official DLD channels:

Dubai Land Department – where transactions are entered, verified, and approved directly by DLD officers.
Authorised Real Estate Services Trustee Centres (including EGSH)—which manage the entire process on behalf of clients, ensuring document accuracy, secure payment, and compliance with DLD requirements.

Each official channel is directly linked to the DLD property registration system, guaranteeing that every property transfer record is valid, traceable, and legally recognised in the Dubai Land Department register.

Hello, My Name is Kelvin it was my first time to hear EGSH Emirates Govt from my sponsor. I was assisted By Mrs Maria Claudia Garcia the experience was amazing from the beginning to the End she has been supporting and guiding me through all the process. I am grateful to her and the entire team for the help. I trust and believe EGSH is a place to recommend to family members and friends.

A very hassle free experience from EGSH. Special mention of Ms.Zara who was most helpfull. Her quick response to queries and swift action are much appeciated.

We had the pleasure of being assisted by the lovely Ms Maria and Ms Randa. They were clear concise and super professional throughout our whole process of renewing our Ejari and business licence. Maria provided continued support while we were waiting for our business Ejari to come through and made it a simple seamless process. I can’t thank these lovely ladies enough. We saved so much money going direct and it was refreshing knowing we are not over paying going through a PRO or typing service company that add so many fees. I saved over 6000aed just for reference. Thank you to EGSH staff. Especially Maria & Randa 🙏

EGSH in art of living is the best Hub center for every thing that you want in dubai Specially Ms.ZARA MOSHIRI is the advisor and assistance and she is beside you in every step Thank you Ms.ZARA MOSHIRI and EGSH

I recently visited this institution had an exceptional experience! Ms. Maria Claudia took the time to understand my needs and preferences. I really appreciate her support and services.

Good morning, I needed to apply for the Golden Visa and went to this EGSH Emirates office. I was very impressed by their facilities and the peaceful atmosphere. We were fortunate to be assisted by María Claudia García, who provided exceptional service. She advised and helped us every step of the way, guiding us through the entire process until we obtained the Golden Visa. Honestly, people with this level of professionalism and personal touch make one feel more at ease and integrated into this country. Thank you!

I would like to express my appreciation to Ray from EGSH for his outstanding assistance in handling the transfer of our property at Rove Hotel. He was very helpful, accommodating, and patient throughout the entire process, from addressing transaction concerns and verifying documents to the actual property transfer and ensuring the new owner received the title deed…

I worked with Amir and Zara, they took care of everything, I only had to send the mandatory information. In a very short time, everything was completed. I was amazed, considering how difficult it had seemed before. Not to mention, the fees were the same or even lower than those of the other companies I mentioned. For me, it was a 10/10 experience, the quickest and smoothest process someone could have in this journey. Strongly recommend them.

Zara assisted me with my Ejari registration, and she was absolutely amazing. She demonstrated exceptional professionalism, efficiency, and delivered everything promptly. Truly a pleasure to work with!

THE BEST!!! Zara you are as always star

Went there for ejari cancellation. Excellent place. Staff was so cooperative. Ms Maria and Ms Fatima assist me and it was a fast process.

This is probably the best government service hub in Dubai. You come in, asked to be seated, and the staff will come to you instead of standing on the reception and on queue. They will offer you tea and water are available at each table. Really embodies the Emirati hospitality and what seamstresses Dubai is known for.

I was here the morning of this post. The concierge like service with a contact person arranging for you all the difeerent interactions is making the interactuon as smooth as possible. A truly delightful experience and a true commitment to service excellence, thank you for the great experience and for the initiative to present government interactions in this way!

Outstanding service — fast, friendly, and highly professional. Thank you very much!

I’ve been here for the first time and I can say that this organization definitely worth to come here and make all proceeds with their help! We were changing the owner and such difficult process was really easy for us with your help and most of the time it was done online. So I’m very grateful to Mrs Zara and her support during all the process❤️

I had an excellent experience with Natalia Baiamonte from EGSH while getting Ejari certificate. From the very beginning, she was professional, attentive, and extremely helpful. Natalia guided me through the process clearly, answered all my questions with patience, and made task feel simple and stress-free. Highly recommend Natalia for her outstanding customer service and dedication!
