What this tenancy contract generator does
Dubai residential rentals use a standard unified tenancy contract. This tool fills in the details for you — property, landlord, tenant, rent, security deposit and payment schedule (number of cheques or cash) — and gives you a print-ready PDF to sign.
The signed contract then has to be registered with Ejari. Registration is what makes the tenancy official: you need the Ejari certificate to connect DEWA and for many visa and government services.
What you need before you start
Landlord: name, contact details and a copy of the title deed (or the property’s DLD details). Tenant: name, nationality, Emirates ID or passport details, phone and email. Property: building, unit number, area, size and the DEWA premise number. Rent: yearly amount, contract start and end dates, security deposit and how the rent will be paid.
Tenancy contract — questions people ask
Is a tenancy contract required in Dubai?
Yes. Every residential rental should have a written tenancy contract, and it must be registered with Ejari to be official.
How do I register a tenancy contract with Ejari?
After both sides sign, the contract is registered through the Ejari system — via the Dubai REST app, a registration (typing) centre or an agency such as Al Firouz. You need the signed contract, title deed, Emirates ID or passport of the tenant and the DEWA premise number.
Who registers the Ejari — landlord or tenant?
Either can, and many agencies do it as part of the rental. Agree who will handle it when signing so it is done before move-in.
Can I add extra terms to the tenancy contract?
Yes. Extra agreed terms are usually written in an addendum signed by both sides. Use our free Addendum Generator for that.
