Can Property Owners Transfer Full Ownership to Their Company?

Yes, property owners in Dubai can transfer full ownership of a property to their company, but certain conditions must be met, and the process involves specific steps. The most common reasons for transferring property to a company include inheritance planning or property management.

The process starts by obtaining a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the property's developer, followed by registering the transfer with the Dubai Land Department (DLD). A key step is determining whether the company is eligible to hold the property; for example, JAFZA or DIFC offshore companies can hold real estate in Dubai. The property must be registered under the company, and a 4% transfer fee is typically charged. However, in cases of family transfers, such as a Hiba transfer, this fee might be reduced to 0.125%.

Before proceeding, it's essential to verify the legal structure of the company, as only certain types of companies can hold property in Dubai. Proper documentation and compliance with the DLD regulations are crucial to complete the process smoothly. This ensures that the transfer is recognized legally, protecting both the company's and the owner's interests.

For more detailed advice, consulting with legal professionals is recommended to ensure compliance with all requirements.
