The Ejari system is a lease agreement process that has been implemented in Dubai and other Emirates in the United Arab Emirates. It was initiated by the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) to streamline the rental and lease process. The tenant is responsible for registering the Ejari agreement, which can be done online through the Ejari portal, through the Ejari app, or at any center approved by EJARI. The Ejari registry serves as proof of the validity of the lease and creates transparency in the Dubai rental market.

It is also necessary for tenants to receive essential services, such as electricity and water. The tenant must start the Ejari registration procedure once the contract has been concluded with the owner of the property with the notary public. Once the landlord approves the documentation through their account in the app, you'll receive the Ejari certificate in one to two business days. The cancellation process requires the landlord to visit an Ejari office and present a copy of the previous contract. Some of the typing centers open for Ejari registration are located in Al Manara, Za'abeel, Deira, Al Barsha Mall and Oud Metha.

However, EJARI does not accept the receipt provided for the online payment of the DEWA security deposit.EJARI was created to address malpractice in the rental sector by making the rental procedure transparent for all parties. Knowing what Ejari is and how it works is essential for anyone living in Dubai or any other emirate in UAE.
