A renewal application carries nearly the same bundle as a first registration, plus the record it replaces. Incomplete bundles are the main reason a same-day registration becomes a three-day one — assemble against this list once and submit once.
The renewed tenancy contract — unified format, signed by both parties, with the new term and rent stated.
The tenant’s Emirates ID — the registration is made against the Emirates ID; this is the DLD’s rule for the contract party, with passports serving only at the system’s user-registration stage for non-residents and narrow embassy exemptions.
The landlord’s identity document — passport or Emirates ID.
The title deed copy — confirming the landlord’s ownership as the register records it.
The previous Ejari certificate — the record being superseded; its number ties the renewal to the tenancy’s history.
The DEWA premise number — identifying the unit in the utilities system.
Where the tenant is a company, add the trade licence and the authorised signatory’s Emirates ID, with the contract in the company’s name. Corporate renewals are processed the same way and are the AED 499 tier of the assisted service.
Send the renewed contract and we register it the same day — AED 299 for individual tenancies, AED 499 for corporate. The certificate lands in your inbox.
A representative can complete the renewal under a notarised power of attorney that covers tenancy or property dealings, with their own Emirates ID alongside the principal’s documents. For landlords overseas this is routine; the renewal does not require either party to attend in person when the file is complete.
