Preserve the records
Keep the tenancy contract, notice, proof of service, payment records, messages and repair reports together.
Confirm dates and reasons
Record when a notice was received and what reason it gives. The correct process depends on the circumstances.
Check the appropriate route
Identify the relevant emirate, authority or dispute centre and the steps available for your matter.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions about rental and property matters
How much notice is required for eviction?
It depends on the reason, applicable legal framework and facts. The notice should be reviewed before relying on a general period.
What should I do after receiving a notice?
Keep the notice and proof of service, record the date received and seek guidance promptly if a deadline or court date may apply.
Are rental rules the same in every emirate?
Do not assume so. The relevant emirate, tenancy type, authority and dispute forum should be identified.
