Document background
The Agreement For Sale Of Immovable Property is a crucial legal document used in the United Arab Emirates for property transactions. It is essential for any transfer of real estate ownership, whether residential or commercial, and must comply with the UAE Civil Code (Federal Law No. 5 of 1985) and relevant emirate-specific property laws. This agreement is required when transferring ownership of any immovable property in the UAE, including land, buildings, apartments, or commercial units. It contains all necessary elements required by UAE law, including detailed property descriptions, payment terms, warranties, and registration requirements. The document serves as the primary contract between seller and buyer, forming the basis for property registration with relevant authorities and subsequent transfer of ownership. It must be drafted in accordance with specific UAE legal requirements and often requires registration with the local Land Department.
