    Are electronic property documents legally valid in Dubai?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Yes, Law No. (7) of 2006 stipulates that Real Property documents and instruments stored electronically in computers have the same evidentiary value as original paper documents. This applies to the Real Property Register and mortgage deeds, which can be issued in electronic format. A digital mortgage deed signed by a competent officer and stamped by the DLD carries full legal weight. This digital integration supports Dubai�s goal of providing efficient and modern smart services.
