How much can my landlord increase my rent in Dubai?

Under RERA Decree 43 of 2013, the permitted increase depends on how far your current rent sits below the RERA rental index: 0% if within 10% of the index, 5% if 11–20% below, 10% if 21–30% below, 15% if 31–40% below, and 20% if more than 40% below. NEST IQ Check calculates your exact figure from your rent and area.

How do I protect my security deposit in Dubai?

Create a signed move-in condition record with photographs of every room before you take the keys, and repeat it at move-out. A shared, timestamped record both parties signed is the primary evidence that prevents deposit disputes at the Dubai Rental Disputes Centre. NEST IQ produces a certified, tamper-evident record.

What notice period applies to a Dubai tenancy renewal?

Under UAE rental law, a landlord must give at least 90 days’ notice before renewal to change rent or terms, and eviction on specific legal grounds generally requires 12 months’ notice via notary public or registered mail. NEST IQ’s assistant Nia explains the rules for your situation; it is informational, not legal advice.
