How can I find the owner of a property in Dubai before completing a transaction?

Legal ownership of a property in Dubai can only be confirmed through an official Property Status Inquiry, issued by the DLD. This service can be accessed via the DLD website, the Dubai REST app, or in person at an authorised Real Estate Services Trustee. To process the inquiry, you will need to provide key details such as the property’s area, name, and land number. The issued record is considered the sole legally valid proof of ownership.

Can I conduct a property status inquiry without the owner’s consent?

Under the DLD regulations, a property status inquiry may be requested without the consent of the property owner. The service is designed to provide transparency in real estate transactions by allowing prospective buyers, investors, and other interested parties to confirm the registered legal ownership before entering into any agreement.

What details are required to check property status in Dubai through EGSH?

To check property ownership, the client must provide the property's area name and plot number. Additional information, such as the plot number, Makani number, Title Deed number, or project/building name (if available), can help identify the correct property more efficiently.

How to find the plot number in Dubai if only the location or project name is known?

If you do not know the plot number, you can identify it using the tools provided by the DLD, such as the Dubai REST app or the map services on the DLD website. You can search for related land and plot details by entering the location or project name.

Where to find the Title Deed number in Dubai if the physical document is missing?

If the original title deed is missing, it can be retrieved through the DLD by submitting a request via the Dubai REST app or by visiting a DLD service centre. The request must include property-related details, such as the area, land number or plot number, to help locate the relevant record.

Can a third party verify ownership?

The property status inquiry service is publicly accessible and does not require proof of ownership or a power of attorney. Any individual or legal entity – including third parties such as buyers, brokers, or legal advisors – can verify property ownership using the area and land number. In some cases, the DLD may require additional information, such as the title deed number, plot details, or other property identifiers, to complete the verification accurately.

What Is a Property Status Inquiry in Dubai

A Property Status Inquiry is an official service of the DLD that allows individuals and entities to verify the legal ownership and registration status of any property in Dubai. By entering the area name and land number, clients can access verified data from the DLD Real Property Register, confirming who legally owns the property and whether it is officially recorded in the Department’s system.

The service is governed by Law No. (7) of 2006 Concerning Real Property Registration in the Emirate of Dubai, which regulates the registration, maintenance, and verification of all property records within the DLD Real Property Register. This verification is an essential step before buying, leasing, or investing in real estate, helping prevent fraud, ownership disputes, and transactions involving unregistered properties.

Main Features of DLD Property Status Inquiry

The DLD property status inquiry is a secure, fully electronic service that provides immediate access to verified property ownership information in Dubai. Key features of the Property Status Inquiry include:

Instant access to official Dubai property ownership records
Verification based on the title deed number, area name and land number
No forms, documents, or approvals required
Accessible via the Dubai Land Department website or Dubai REST App
Fully compliant with DLD’s electronic Real Property Register

The inquiry is conducted directly through DLD’s central database, ensuring transparency and full compliance with UAE property laws.

Information Confirmed Through a DLD Ownership Inquiry

A Dubai Land Department ownership inquiry provides official confirmation of a property’s registration details, including:

The registered legal owner’s name
The property’s area and land number
The ownership status and date of the latest registration or update
Confirmation that the property is officially recorded in the DLD Real Property Register

This service does not include financial or legal encumbrances such as mortgages, attachments, or ongoing disputes. It is strictly designed to verify legal ownership and registration data for real estate within Dubai.

Financial checks often follow a service fees indicator inquiry in Dubai.

Went there for a consulting. Booked an appointment in advance thro their website. Came early — no line — which is good. Very pleasant interior. My consultant Rachel, was polite. Answered all my questions. Can’t judge regarding the process once applied for an exact service, but consulting went well.

This trustee office is remarkably quiet, and it is unquestionably the finest I have experienced in Dubai. Umama Azeem was an absolute pleasure to work with; she ensured that all documentation and formalities were thoroughly prepared prior to the arrival of both the buyer and the seller. As a result, the transaction itself was completed within approximately ten minutes. For anyone uncertain about which trustee office to choose among the many available options, this is undoubtedly the correct choice. My sincere thanks to Umama Azeem for her exceptional assistance.

Amazing support and communication during the whole process. Rachel, Yara and Maria were super well organized and assisted in record time. We finished the whole process from star to end in 4 business days for 10 year Golden Visa!

I had an excellent experience with the wonderful help of Maria Claudia Garcia. Her professionalism and attention to detail made the whole process easy.

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 🙏

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!

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.

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!

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!
