How Much Does Ejari Cost in Dubai?
Ejari registration has an official fee set by the Dubai Land Department and its approved registration channels. The amount can change and can differ slightly between the online route and a trustee centre, so the reliable figure is always the one shown on the official DLD or Ejari channel at the time you register.
What the fee covers
The fee is for registering your signed tenancy contract with the DLD so it becomes an official record. That record is what you use for DEWA activation and for visa and residence steps that ask for a registered tenancy.
What can change the amount
| Factor | Effect |
|---|---|
| Registration route | Registering online through Dubai REST or Dubai Now can differ from a trustee centre. |
| Official updates | Government fees are set by the DLD and can be revised. |
| Additional services | Any optional help you choose to use is separate from the official registration fee. |
Where to check the current fee
Confirm the current amount before you register on the official DLD register or renew Ejari page. Because the figure is set officially and can be updated, treat any third-party number as a guide only.
Get ready before you pay
Missing documents are the most common cause of delay and repeat trips. Confirm your file first with the Ejari Document Checker, and check for issues with the Ejari Rejection Checker.
