How Ejaar works
Ejaar is Fujairah Municipality’s online system for tenants, owners, and property managers. Two things are needed before a contract can be registered: the owner is registered on Ejaar, and the property itself is registered. Once both are in place, the tenancy contract can be entered and registered online.
Fees

Preparing the contract
