Navigating tenancy and eviction laws in Dubai can be complex. Whether you are a landlord looking to issue an eviction notice or a tenant seeking clarity on your rights, ValuGate is here to guide you every step of the way. We specialize in legal tenancy services, ensuring your eviction notices are compliant with Dubai’s Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) and Dubai Land Department (DLD) regulations.
Why Is a Legally Compliant Eviction Notice Important?
Dubai has strict rules on how eviction notices must be issued and delivered. A poorly drafted or improperly served notice can be challenged by tenants, causing delays and potential legal setbacks.
At ValuGate, we help landlords and tenants avoid these pitfalls by offering professional eviction notice preparation, document verification, and compliance checks.

When Can a Landlord Issue an Eviction Notice?
According to Dubai law, landlords can issue an eviction notice under the following conditions:
- Sale of the Property
The landlord is planning to sell the property and requires the tenant to vacate. - Personal Use
The landlord or a first-degree relative intends to move into the property. - Major Renovations or Demolition
The property needs extensive renovations or demolition that make it uninhabitable. - Tenant Contract Breach
Eviction is also permitted if the tenant breaches the tenancy contract, such as by failing to pay rent or using the property for unauthorized purposes.

What Should an Eviction Notice Include?
Our experts ensure your eviction notice meets all legal requirements, including:
- Landlord and Tenant Information: Full names and the property’s address.
- Reason for Eviction: A clearly stated, lawful reason.
- 12-Month Notice Period: For reasons like sale, personal use, or renovations.
- Supporting Documents (if applicable): Approvals for renovations or proof of planned sale.
- Delivery Date and Signature.
How We Serve Eviction Notices
Delivery is a critical aspect of the eviction process. An improperly delivered notice may be invalidated by the Rental Dispute Settlement Center (RDC). At ValuGate, we handle notice delivery through approved methods, including:
- Registered Courier Service
Notices are sent via official courier to provide verifiable proof of delivery. - Notary Public Certification
We can issue notices through a notary public, adding legal weight to the document. - Posting the Notice at the Property
For urgent cases, notices can be posted at the property, documented with photographs and witness verification.
We also maintain thorough records of all notice deliveries to protect your case in the event of a dispute.

What Happens After Issuing an Eviction Notice?
After the eviction notice is delivered, tenants have 12 months to vacate the property. In cases of breach of contract, shorter notice periods may apply. If a tenant refuses to comply or disputes the notice, we provide full support by:
- Registering your case with the Rental Dispute Settlement Center (RDC).
- Representing you at hearings, presenting evidence, and handling all legal documentation.
- Ensuring compliance with final rulings issued by the RDC.

Tenant and Landlord FAQs
- What happens if a landlord doesn’t follow the proper eviction process?
If a landlord fails to comply with legal requirements for eviction notices, the notice may be invalid, and the tenant can file a complaint with the RDC. This can lead to delays and potential penalties. - Can tenants refuse to vacate if they believe the eviction reason is false?
Yes. Tenants can challenge the eviction notice if they suspect false claims, such as a fake intent to sell the property. The RDC may award compensation if the notice is proven dishonest. - How do I know if my eviction notice is compliant?
You can consult with ValuGate to verify your notice against Dubai’s tenancy laws. Our experts will ensure full compliance and proper delivery.
