Before purchasing a property in Dubai, it's essential to gather the necessary documents to streamline the process smoothly. If you're buying from a developer in the primary market, as an individual, you'll typically need to provide a copy of your passport. For companies, the requirements are a bit more extensive and include documents such as Articles of Incorporation, Registration Certificate, Power of Attorney (POA) of the authorized signatory, and a Board of Directors Resolution.

Here's a breakdown of the documents needed:

Please note that the list of corporate documents may vary, so it's advisable to have your documents pre-approved by the Dubai Land Department. Additionally, any documents not in Arabic must be translated into Arabic by a certified legal translator before submission to the Dubai Land Department or the developer.

It's crucial to ensure you have both the original and prepared copies of these documents for submission. This helps expedite the process and ensures compliance with legal requirements. If you have any doubts or questions about the required documents, don't hesitate to reach out to us for guidance.
