Every new tenancy contract signed in Dubai — whether residential or commercial — must be registered on the Ejari platform within 30 days of the contract start date, as required by RERA under Law No. 26 of 2007. At Hashmi Business Consultant, we make first-time Ejari registration effortless: share your documents, and we handle everything from expert verification to RERA submission, delivering your official Ejari certificate the same business day. With 5,000+ successful registrations and zero rejections, we are Dubai's most trusted name for Ejari.

Failing to register within the mandatory 30-day window exposes tenants to legal vulnerability and landlords to non-compliance risk — making prompt, professional registration not just a legal duty but a smart protection for both parties.

Who Needs New Ejari Registration?

New Ejari registration is required for any party entering a fresh tenancy agreement in Dubai, including:

• Residential tenants moving into a new apartment, villa, studio, or townhouse
• Commercial tenants signing a new lease for an office, retail unit, warehouse, or showroom
• Landlords whose property is being leased for the first time or after a period of vacancy
• Subletting arrangements where a new occupant takes over and a fresh contract is issued
• Property managers acting on behalf of landlords registering new tenancies in a portfolio

If the existing Ejari was cancelled, or if this is a completely new property-tenant relationship, a new Ejari registration — not a renewal — is the correct procedure.

How New Ejari Registration Works

Getting your first Ejari certificate through Hashmi Business Consultant is a clear, four-step process:

1. Share Your Documents Send us your signed tenancy contract and all supporting documents via WhatsApp, email, or by visiting either of our offices in Dubai Healthcare City or Ajman. Our team will review everything immediately and confirm what is in order — no waiting, no guessing.

2. Expert Review & Verification Our RERA-trained consultants examine every document for completeness, consistency, and compliance with current RERA requirements. We verify that the tenancy contract is properly signed and dated, that all ID documents are valid, and that the property details match RERA records. Any discrepancy is flagged and resolved before submission — this is why our record shows zero rejections.

3. Submit to RERA We submit your fully prepared application directly to the RERA Ejari portal on your behalf. Our established workflow and deep familiarity with the system ensures submissions are processed at the fastest possible speed — standard applications are completed the same business day.

4. Receive Your Ejari Certificate Your official, RERA-stamped Ejari certificate is delivered to you digitally. It is immediately valid for DEWA utility connections, UAE residency visa applications, trade license submissions at the DED, and any legal proceedings before the Dubai Rental Dispute Centre.

Documents Required

Tenant Documents

• Passport copy (all tenants named on the tenancy contract)
• UAE Residence Visa copy
• Emirates ID copy — both front and back
• Original signed and dated tenancy contract
• Security deposit receipt (proof of payment)

Property & Landlord Documents

• Title deed copy — or a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the developer if the title deed has not yet been issued
• DEWA Premise Number for the property
• Landlord's passport copy
• Landlord's Emirates ID copy
• Power of Attorney (if a property manager or representative is acting on the landlord's behalf)

Tip: Documents do not need to be originals — clear, legible scans or high-quality photos are accepted. Our team will advise if anything needs to be re-submitted in a specific format.

Fees

The AED 220 RERA fee is a fixed government charge that applies to all new Ejari registrations. Our professional service fee is transparent, competitive, and disclosed upfront before we begin — there are no hidden charges. Contact us on WhatsApp for an immediate, no-obligation quote tailored to your specific registration.

Note: DED fines of AED 250 per month apply to businesses operating without a valid Ejari. Registering promptly avoids this unnecessary expense.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How quickly can my new Ejari be registered? When all documents are in order, Hashmi Business Consultant completes new Ejari registrations within the same business day. The 30-day window from your contract start date gives you time to gather documents, but we recommend submitting as early as possible to ensure your DEWA connection and visa applications are not delayed.

2. What does the new Ejari registration cost in total? The mandatory RERA official fee is AED 220 inclusive of VAT — this is a fixed government charge. Our professional service fee is quoted separately and transparently. Contact us on WhatsApp for a precise quote; there are no surprises or hidden charges.

3. What if my landlord is uncooperative or unreachable? The landlord does not need to be physically present for the registration. In most cases, providing the landlord's passport copy and Emirates ID copy (along with the signed tenancy contract) is sufficient. If the landlord is represented by a property management company, their Power of Attorney covers the requirement. If you face genuine obstruction from a landlord refusing to cooperate, we can advise you on RERA's dispute channels — this is an enforceable legal right as a tenant under Dubai rental law.

4. Is a digital (e-copy) Ejari certificate as valid as a physical original? Yes — completely. RERA issues Ejari certificates digitally, and the e-copy carries the same legal weight as any physical document. The digital certificate can be verified by any Dubai authority, including DEWA, the DED, and the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA), using the unique Ejari reference number on the certificate.

5. How long is a new Ejari registration valid? An Ejari certificate is valid for the duration of the tenancy contract it covers. For a one-year lease, the Ejari is valid for one year. When the contract is renewed, a new Ejari renewal must be processed — the original registration does not carry over automatically.

6. When should I start the Ejari renewal process before my certificate expires? We recommend initiating the renewal process at least 2 to 4 weeks before your Ejari expiry date. This ensures continuity — particularly important for tenants whose residency visa renewal, trade license, or DEWA account is tied to a valid Ejari. Our team will remind you proactively if you are an existing client.
