Title Deed is the most important document when it comes to your Dubai property. It is your sole and conclusive proof of legal ownership and is required if you wish to rent or sell your property in Dubai. Registering with the Dubai Land Department and obtaining your Title Deed is therefore a must.

When the property is off plan or during construction an Oqood certificate is issued by RERA under buyer’s name that ensures the property is registered under his name. In order to register Oqood the buyer has to pay at least 10% payment to the developer before he / she can register Oqood with RERA. As per the law, the registration of Oqood is mandatory for every buyer and fees of 4% of the selling price along with some administration charges are charged to the buyer by the Land’s department.

On handover of property the oqood automatically converts to a title deed. Please note that only small admin fee needs to be paid at that time and no other charges should be paid for the conversion.
