This means that when a tenant or landlord does not plan to renew the lease or when the rental agreement is terminated early, the Ejari contract must be cancelled. But what does this process entail?Contrary to popular belief, your Ejari contract will not be automatically cancelled after the contract expires. Instead, DEWA will remain connected until an application is submitted to close it.
