What is Ejari? EJARI is an Arabic word which means “My Rent”. In Dubai it represents a legislative initiative issued by the Real Estate regulatory Authority (RERA). According to RERA as of 14th March 2010, every tenant and landlord must get their rental and lease contracts registered through EJARI. Ejari is an electronic registration system accessible through the web, which is exclusively designed to execute the legal requirements as well as the vision and the mission of establishing a strong regulatory system to control the rental market in the Emirate. This regulatory system is established to protect the rights of everyone involved in rental deals.
Customers have the option of canceling their previous contract online or by visiting an Ejari office in Dubai and making the request in person. Cancellations made online are typically handled within 24 to 48 hours. It will be allowed to complete the registration of the new tenancy contract after the former contract has been canceled. To cancel Ejari, you will have to provide certain documents and follow a particular process.
