Dubai Launches Digital Sale Service

At GITEX Global 2025, the Dubai Land Department (DLD) unveiled the “Digital Sale” service on the Dubai Now app. This milestone marks Dubai’s growing leadership in digital transformation and supports the Dubai Real Estate Strategy 2033 and the Economic Agenda D33. The initiative enhances the efficiency, speed, and reliability of property transactions while fostering a sustainable, innovation-driven economy.

Fully Digital Property Transactions

Through the Dubai Now app, users can complete every step of the sale and registration process entirely online. Buyers and sellers use electronic signatures via the UAE Pass, enabling them to finalize deals anytime and anywhere, in full compliance with Dubai’s vision of unified digital services.

By simplifying transactions, DLD strengthens investor confidence and reinforces Dubai’s reputation as a secure, transparent, and globally competitive real estate hub.

Seamless and Secure Experience

The process begins with a digital sale contract created by the seller and sent to the buyer for signing. Once payment is deposited into the system’s secure account, ownership is instantly transferred, and the ownership certificate is issued digitally. The service provides an end-to-end experience that is paperless, fast, and reliable.

Eligibility and Requirements

Both buyer and seller must hold valid Emirates IDs, UAE Pass accounts, and UAE-based bank accounts. Eligible properties must be in freehold areas, categorized as residential or commercial, owned by one individual, and free of mortgages.

Available on the App Store and Google Play, Dubai Now gives users access to over 350 services from 50 public and private entities, serving as the emirate’s all-in-one digital portal.

Expanding Dubai’s Smart Property Vision

DLD also presented its Real Estate Instant Registration Platform at GITEX — an interactive dashboard offering real-time data on property deals. Alongside, the department introduced new digital initiatives to enhance operational efficiency, customer experience, and Dubai’s long-term real estate competitiveness.
