A parent wants a child on the deed. A spouse wants the family home held jointly. An owner wants the asset moved into a company they control.<\/p>\n        <p>In Dubai this is not a sale, and it is not handled as one. The Dubai Land Department runs a distinct service for it \u2014 <strong>Property Gift Registration<\/strong> \u2014 which the DLD describes as allowing individuals to register gifted properties, in full or in part, by transferring ownership to first-degree relatives or companies <strong>&#8220;without compensation, provided that the property is not restricted or granted land.&#8221;<\/strong> The Arabic term you will see used for it is <em>hiba<\/em>.<\/p>\n        <p>The reason people care about the distinction is cost. A normal sale is registered through the DLD&#8217;s Property Sale Registration service at 2% of sale value from the seller and 2% from the buyer \u2014 the 4% figure everyone quotes. A gift registration is charged at <strong>0.125% of the property valuation, with a minimum fee of AED 2,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n        <p>That is a thirty-two-fold difference in the headline rate, which is why the eligibility rules are narrow and the evidence requirements are strict. The DLD is not offering a cheaper way to sell property. It is recognising that a transfer within an immediate family, or into your own company, is a different kind of transaction.<\/p>\n        <p>One structural point underpins all of it. <strong>Article 9 of Dubai Law No. 7 of 2006<\/strong> provides that transactions which create, transfer, amend or extinguish real property rights &#8220;will not be deemed valid unless recorded in the Property Register.&#8221; A private family agreement to hand over a property has no legal effect in Dubai. Until the DLD registers it, nothing has moved.<\/p>\n        <div class=\"gf-hbox\">\n          <strong>TruHauz perspective:<\/strong> Gifting is a registration route, not a tax strategy \u2014 there is no personal income or capital gains tax on property in Dubai for the gift to avoid. What it saves is transfer cost, and what it buys is clarity about who owns what while everyone is alive to confirm it.

If the property carries a mortgage, Property Finder reported on 30 April 2026 that a No Objection Certificate from the bank is mandatory, with some lenders requiring settlement of the loan and others permitting refinancing or transfer to the recipient. And the same source states that a property under construction cannot be gifted until the title deed has been issued \u2014 which is consistent with the registration-based structure of Dubai property law.<\/p>\n        <p>The DLD delivers the service through Real Estate Registration Trustees Centres and publishes a service time of 25 minutes. That figure describes the transaction at the counter once everything is in order; the attestation and translation work beforehand is what takes the real time.

On top of that the DLD lists AED 250 for the title deed certificate, AED 250 for a villa or apartment map, AED 225 for a unified map with Dubai Municipality, and AED 10 each for the knowledge and innovation fees. Service partner fees are listed as AED 4,000 plus VAT where the value is AED 2,000,000 or more, or AED 2,000 plus VAT below that.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"gf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-q\" onclick=\"gfFaq(this)\">Who counts as a first-degree relative for a Dubai property gift?<span class=\"gf-faq-icon\">+<\/span><\/div>\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-a\">The Dubai Land Department\u2019s Property Gift Registration service names the eligible recipients as first-degree relatives \u2014 mother, father, spouse or children \u2014 or companies. That list is exhaustive, so transfers to siblings, grandparents, stepparents, cousins and other extended family do not qualify for the gift route and are handled as ordinary transfers instead.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"gf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-q\" onclick=\"gfFaq(this)\">Can I gift a property in Dubai to my brother or sister?<span class=\"gf-faq-icon\">+<\/span><\/div>\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-a\">No. Siblings are not within the first-degree category the Dubai Land Department lists for its Property Gift Registration service, which covers mother, father, spouse, children and companies. A transfer to a sibling therefore falls outside the gift route. The DLD\u2019s published sale registration fee of 2% from the seller and 2% from the buyer would apply to a normal transfer instead.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"gf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-q\" onclick=\"gfFaq(this)\">Can I gift a property that still has a mortgage on it?<span class=\"gf-faq-icon\">+<\/span><\/div>\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-a\">Not without the lender\u2019s agreement. Property Finder, in an article published 30 April 2026, reports that a No Objection Certificate from the bank is mandatory where a mortgage exists, and that some lenders require the loan to be settled first while others allow the mortgage to be refinanced or transferred to the recipient. Speak to your lender before you plan anything else, because their position determines whether the gift is possible at all.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"gf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-q\" onclick=\"gfFaq(this)\">Can off-plan property be gifted in Dubai?<span class=\"gf-faq-icon\">+<\/span><\/div>\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-a\">Property Finder, in its article published 30 April 2026, states that a property under construction cannot be gifted until the title deed has been issued. That fits the wider structure of Dubai property law, where Article 9 of Dubai Law No. 7 of 2006 provides that transactions creating or transferring property rights are not valid unless recorded in the Property Register.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"gf-faq-item\">\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-q\" onclick=\"gfFaq(this)\">Is gifting property in Dubai the same as leaving it in a will?<span class=\"gf-faq-icon\">+<\/span><\/div>\n        <div class=\"gf-faq-a\">No, and the difference matters. A gift transfers ownership now, while you are alive, and is registered through the DLD\u2019s Property Gift Registration service at 0.125% of valuation. Inheritance transfers ownership after death through a different DLD service, Inheritance Title Transfer, which is priced at AED 1,000 per property collected from the heirs and requires a legal inheritance notification and a court letter. They are separate routes with separate costs, evidence requirements and timing.<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <p style=\"font-size:.78rem;color:#999;margin-top:26px;text-align:center;max-width:820px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto\"><strong>This article is general information, not legal advice.<\/strong> Dubai Land Department fees, eligibility rules and document requirements change, and how they apply depends on your property, your family circumstances and your lender.
