    Are there any rental disputes that fall outside the Centre�s authority?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Yes, the RDSC does not have jurisdiction over rental disputes arising within free zones that possess their own tribunals or special courts. Additionally, disputes stemming from a lease finance contract are excluded from its mandate. The Centre also cannot hear conflicts related to long-term lease contracts governed by Law No. (7) of 2006. These specific exclusions ensure that specialised financial or long-term property rights are addressed by the appropriate alternative legal frameworks or specific free zone authorities.
