What is a Short Rental Lease Agreement?

The Short Rental Lease Agreement is designed for use in the United Arab Emirates real estate market, specifically tailored for lease terms typically ranging from 1 to 12 months.

The agreement is structured to facilitate registration with relevant authorities (such as Ejari in Dubai or Tawtheeq in Abu Dhabi) and includes provisions for security deposits, utility connections, and property maintenance in accordance with local standards.
