    What is the legal weight of a digital property record compared to paper?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Documents and instruments stored electronically in computers, such as the Real Property Register, carry full legal weight. Under Dubai law, these electronic records have the same evidentiary value as original paper documents. A title deed or register entry serves as conclusive evidentiary value in proving ownership and other real property rights. This authenticity cannot be challenged unless there is clear proof of fraud or forgery, ensuring that the digital transition of the DLD provides a secure legal environment.
