The New Co-Occupancy Rules Will “Avoid Slums And Help Build A Safer Infrastructure For Dubai’s 2040 Master Plan”

A circular by the Dubai Land Department requests that owners, developers, property management companies, and tenants register co-occupant’s details in the owned or leased properties within two weeks, with immediate effect.

The majority are jumping onto the Rest app to update their details, but some people have questions. Why now? How many people can actually live in an apartment? Who does it apply to? And what happens if I miss the two-week deadline? Sought-after Emirati lawyer, Omar Al Heloo from Hadef & Partners joined The Lovin Dubai Show to answer your questions.

There’s an 8-step process to do this, including having to add the co-occupant’s personal details and Emirates ID

The instructions:

  1. Open Dubai REST App and Login to the Application. Please register if you’re a new user.
  2. Choose your role as “Individual” and login with UAE PASS for quick access
  3. Authenticate yourself via UAE PASS Application
  4. From the Dashboard, select the property where you are a tenant
  1. Select Manage Co-occupants to proceed
  2. Select “Add More” to add Co-Occupants to the property where you are a tenant
  3. Enter the Emirates ID and Date of Birth of the Co-Occupant and select “Verify”.
  4. Add all members of the family who are living in that property. To remove a Co-occupant, select the delete icon and submit.
