Leases and rent in Abu Dhabi
ADREC regulates the Abu Dhabi market, and tenancy contracts are registered on Tawtheeq. RealMake saves the Tawtheeq reference with each lease and reminds the team when a renewal or a new tenant needs a fresh registration. Rent increases are subject to the freeze ADREC announced in June 2026, and RealMake applies whatever increase rule is in force when each offer is made. UAE VAT is 5%, applied to each type of charge as your tax advisor sets it. E-invoicing starts on 1 January 2027 for businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or more and on 1 July 2027 for the rest.
