Get Free AdviceDubai's Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA), part of the Dubai Land Department (DLD), sets clear rules about how much landlords can increase rent when renewing a tenancy contract.
The allowed increase depends on how far below the average market rent your current rent is:
| Your Rent vs Market | Max Increase |
|---|---|
| At or above market rate | 0% |
| Up to 10% below | 0% |
| 11% to 20% below | 5% |
| 21% to 30% below | 10% |
| 31% to 40% below | 15% |
| More than 40% below | 20% |
Important: Your landlord must give you 90 days' written notice before any rent increase takes effect. If they don't, you can legally reject the increase.
