What are the property taxes and fees in Dubai?
Dubai does not impose property taxes, making it a highly appealing destination for real estate investors. However, certain fees are associated with property ownership and transactions. Key costs include a 4% Dubai Land Department (DLD) fee, annual service charges for property maintenance, and a 0.25% mortgage registration fee (if applicable). Rental income is tax-free, and there are minor administrative fees for tenancy registrations and title deeds. Dubai’s low-tax structure attracts global investors.
