In October 2025, the Dubai Land Department (DLD) launched the first phase of the Digital Sale service through the Dubai Now application — marking a new era for the Emirate’s real estate market.
The project is part of the Dubai Economic Agenda D33 and the Dubai Real Estate Strategy 2033, both aimed at digital transformation and simplification of real estate operations.

What the Digital Sale Service Offers

• Real estate transactions can now be completed fully remotely, with no in-person visits or paperwork.
• Documents are signed electronically via the UAE Pass app.
• The system operates 24/7, allowing buyers and sellers to complete transactions at their convenience.
• Once payment is confirmed, the Title Deed can be instantly issued through the system.

How the Process Works

1. The seller generates a digital sale contract in the application and sends it to the buyer.
2. The buyer signs the document via UAE Pass and transfers the payment to the designated account.
3. Upon payment confirmation, the ownership transfer is automatically registered, and an electronic Title Deed is issued.

Main Requirements to Use Digital Sale

• Both seller and buyer must have valid Emirates ID and active UAE Pass accounts.
• The property must be located in a Freehold zone (residential, commercial, or townhouse).
• The property must be unmortgaged and owned by a single individual.
• The participant’s bank account must be registered in the UAE.

Why It Matters for Investors and Buyers

• Accelerates property transactions — reducing processing time from days or weeks to minutes and hours.
• Increases market transparency, minimizing risks of fraudulent operations.
• Enables global accessibility — allowing foreign investors to complete transactions from anywhere in the world.
• Reinforces Dubai’s position as the emerging digital capital of real estate.
