    Is a landlord required to provide a municipality report for maintenance-based eviction?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Yes, if a landlord seeks eviction for comprehensive maintenance or restoration, they must prove the property's condition. This requires a technical report that is either issued by or certified by the Dubai Municipality. This report must confirm that the necessary work cannot be carried out while the tenant is in residence. This legal requirement prevents landlords from using "maintenance" as a vague excuse to remove tenants and ensures that major repairs are technically verified.
