Document background
The Move Out Lease Letter is an essential document in the UAE real estate sector, required when a tenant plans to end their lease and vacate a property. This formal communication tool ensures compliance with UAE federal property laws and emirate-specific regulations, including Dubai Law No. 26 of 2007 and Abu Dhabi Law No. 20 of 2006. The letter serves multiple purposes: it provides legally required notice of intent to vacate, initiates the property handover process, and creates a documented trail for security deposit returns. It should be used whenever a lease is being terminated, whether at the natural end of the term or in cases of early termination, and must include specific details about move-out dates, property condition, and utility arrangements. The document's format and content are influenced by local property regulations and standard practice in the UAE real estate market.
