    Can a Tenant be evicted for using a property for illegal purposes?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Yes, a Landlord has the legal right to seek immediate eviction before the lease term expires if the Tenant uses the property for illegal purposes. This also applies if the Tenant allows others to use the premises for activities that conflict with public order or morals. Such actions are considered a grave breach of the rental relationship and public safety standards in the Emirate. In these cases, the Landlord can serve notice to protect the property�s reputation and compliance with local laws.
