What exactly is EJARI?
EJARI means ‘Rent’ in Arabic. Ejari is a system that is presided by the RERA(Real Estate Regulatory Authority). It is used to make registration of rental / lease agreements easy and accessible to Owners and Real Estate Management Companies of various categories. The Ejari system provides a full collection of services that are beyond registering the primary lease agreement. EJARI registration cannot be done if the Tenancy Contract is issued from other emirates (eg. Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman..etc). In that case, the contract has to be attested from concerned Municipality/Land Department and attach Electricity Bill.
