To accurately determine which maps are approved for use by the Dubai Land Department (DLD), it's important to understand the types of maps commonly utilized in property and real estate transactions in Dubai. The DLD approves and issues several types of maps that are crucial for property transactions, development, and registration. Here’s a breakdown of the key maps approved for use:

1. Land Map

• This map provides detailed information about a specific plot of land, including its boundaries, dimensions, and location. It is essential for property transactions, development planning, and legal documentation.
  
  

2. Real Estate Unit Map

• This type of map is used to illustrate individual real estate units within a larger property, such as apartments within a building. It includes the unit's layout, size, and specific location within the building.
  
  

3. Building Map

• A comprehensive map showing all the details of a building, including the layout of floors, common areas, and individual units. This map is necessary for developers and property managers.
  
  

4. Map of Common Areas and Facilities

• This map details the common areas within a property or community, such as parks, pools, and shared facilities. It is crucial for managing and maintaining shared spaces within developments.
  
  

5. Villa Map

• Specific to villa properties, this map provides details on the layout and dimensions of a villa, including any adjacent land that is part of the property.
  
  

6. Parking Lot and Store Maps

• These maps are used to detail additional parking spaces or storage units associated with a property, which is particularly important in multi-unit residential and commercial buildings.
  
  

7. Unified Map with Dubai Municipality

• For properties within the jurisdiction of Dubai Municipality, a unified map that integrates details from both the DLD and the municipality is often required. This map ensures consistency across different government departments.
  
  

These maps are issued and approved by the DLD as part of their regulatory role in managing and documenting property ownership, development, and transactions in Dubai.
