    Can a Tenant be evicted for violating land use regulations?

    Yes, a Landlord can request eviction if a Tenant uses the property in a way that violates planning, construction, or land use regulations. This applies if the Tenant uses the premises for a purpose other than what was agreed in the lease. For example, using a residential villa as a commercial office without permission is a breach. These regulations ensure that all property use in Dubai remains consistent with the government's urban planning and zoning laws, protecting the character and safety of the community.
