Are you looking to register your tenancy contract with Ejari? Here’s everything you need to know before proceeding with the Ejari registration. Well, Ejari registration is mandatory for a variety of services. This includes renewing a resident visa, obtaining an internet connection, obtaining a commercial license, hiring domestic help, and most importantly, registering with the DEWA (Dubai Electricity and Water Authority). For acquiring power and water services, the Dewa registration now requires a certified copy of the Ejari, as well as additional documentation.

WHO SHOULD REGISTER FOR EJARI DUBAI?

This is one of those points where the landlord and the tenant are at odds. According to RERA, the Ejari is the landlord's obligation and must be paid by the tenant. Before registering a new tenant in the system, landlords must terminate the registration under the prior renter's name.

In most circumstances, the consultant who acts as a mediator between the landlord and the tenant may take on the obligation of Ejari registration, which is an extra service for which all parties should agree on compensation.

All parties involved in property lease and management, including landlords who manage their properties on a personal basis, licensed companies, and legal representatives can be connected and authorized to register and issue contracts through Ejari's tenancy contract registration.
