    What is the procedure for eviction when a property is likely to collapse?

    If a property is likely to collapse, the landlord can request the tenant to vacate. To enforce this, the landlord must provide a technical report that is either issued by or certified by the Dubai Municipality. This ensures that eviction for safety reasons is based on objective, professional engineering data rather than a landlord's preference. This provision prioritizes occupant safety while requiring official government verification to protect the tenant from being unfairly displaced under false pretences.
