Sharjah Tenancy Contract Attestation Help

We prepare and route your Sharjah tenancy contract attestation (Tasdeeq). You send the signed contract, both parties Emirates ID, the title deed, the latest SEWA bill and an owner No Objection Certificate where needed. We check the file, arrange the Arabic details the municipality expects, and submit the attestation at Sharjah Municipality so your SEWA connection activates without a second trip.

What we handle

Attestation is how Sharjah Municipality recognises your lease. Without it you cannot activate the SEWA electricity and water connection, and the contract will not stand up if a dispute reaches the Sharjah Rent Dispute Committee. We confirm every document matches, correct the details that cause rejections, and submit the file through the municipality or a licensed attestation office. The attestation fee is set by Sharjah Municipality at four percent of the annual rent, and it is renewed each year with the contract.

Documents you need

  • The signed tenancy contract, all pages
  • Tenant and landlord Emirates ID
  • Title deed or proof of ownership for the unit
  • The most recent SEWA bill for the premises
  • Owner No Objection Certificate and agent licence where a company or agent signs

Timing and late penalties

Attest the contract within the window Sharjah Municipality sets after signing. Late attestation can add a municipality penalty on top of the standard fee, so the cheapest path is to submit early. We flag the deadline when we review your file.

Why attestations get delayed

  • Names on the contract do not match the Emirates ID or title deed.
  • The SEWA premises number or account detail is wrong.
  • A company or agent signs without the licence or owner NOC.
  • Contract dates or rent figures are inconsistent across pages.
