Document background
The Residential Lease Extension agreement is utilized when parties to an existing UAE residential lease wish to continue their landlord-tenant relationship beyond the original lease term. This document is particularly relevant in the UAE's dynamic real estate market, where both landlords and tenants often seek to extend their existing arrangements while ensuring compliance with local regulations. It incorporates essential elements required by UAE federal law and emirate-specific requirements, including registration with relevant authorities (Ejari in Dubai, Tawtheeq in Abu Dhabi). The document typically includes updated rent terms, confirmation of existing conditions, and any modifications agreed upon for the extension period. It's designed to provide legal certainty while maintaining the continuity of the tenancy relationship.
