Ejari registration is mandatory for tenancy contracts in Dubai, but there are situations where you may need to cancel or deregister Ejari for a property. Whether you’re ending a lease, selling the property, or terminating a tenancy contract, understanding the Ejari cancellation process is essential to avoid legal complications.
When Do You Need to Cancel Ejari?
When a tenancy contract expires and will not be renewed
When the property is sold or transferred to a new owner
When the tenant vacates the property permanently
If you want to update or replace the Ejari with a new contract
Steps to Cancel Ejari Registration
Notify the Other Party: Inform the landlord or tenant about contract termination.
Clear Outstanding Dues: Ensure all rent and utility bills (DEWA) are settled.
Prepare Required Documents: These typically include:
Ejari certificate
Original tenancy contract
Passport and Emirates ID copies of tenant and landlord
Submit Cancellation Request: Visit the authorized typing center, or use online portals such as the Dubai Land Department (DLD) or the Ejari system to request cancellation.
Receive Confirmation: After processing, you’ll receive an official confirmation that Ejari is canceled.
Important Things to Remember
Ejari cancellation must be completed before signing a new tenancy contract for the same property.
Without Ejari cancellation, your new contract registration may face delays.
Both tenants and landlords should keep proof of Ejari cancellation for future reference.
Cancelling Ejari is essential when moving out to avoid disputes or penalties.
