Ejari Registration in Dubai — What It Is and Why Your Business Needs It

Answer Capsule: Ejari is Dubai's mandatory tenancy contract registration system, managed by RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Agency). All Dubai mainland companies must have a valid Ejari registration linking their trade licence to a registered office address. Ejari registration costs approximately AED 220 in government fees and is required for trade licence issuance, renewal, and visa processing.

Why Ejari Matters for Your Business

Without Ejari, you cannot obtain or renew your trade licence, process employee visas, or pass DET compliance checks. It is the link between your company and its registered address.

How to Register

Register through the Ejari website (ejari.ae) or at an authorised typing centre with your signed tenancy contract, landlord's title deed, tenant identification, and DEWA connection proof.

Ejari for Flexi-Desk Offices

Flexi-desk and serviced office providers typically handle Ejari registration as part of their package. Confirm this before signing — some providers charge it as an add-on.

Common Ejari Problems

Expired Ejari blocking licence renewal (the most common issue), address mismatch between Ejari and DET records, landlord refusing to provide title deed documentation, and Ejari cancellation when moving offices.
