Create a Tenancy Contract Dubai Online Free (Step-by-Step 2026)

Last updated 10 June 2026

Creating a tenancy contract in Dubai used to mean a trip to a typing centre, AED 150-300, and a 30-90 minute wait. Today you can create the same official DLD Unified Tenancy Contract online in under 3 minutes — for free. Here's how, step-by-step.

What you need before you start

Property Title Deed (digital scan or photo)
Landlord's Emirates ID (or passport for non-residents)
Tenant's Emirates ID (or passport)
Recent DEWA bill (for the Premises Number)
Agreed rental terms: annual rent, start/end dates, security deposit, cheque count

Step 1: Open the free generator

Go to tenancycontract.com on any device (works on phone, tablet, laptop). No signup needed. The home screen shows the upload area.

Step 2: Upload your documents

Upload title deed

Drop the file or click to browse. PDF, JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC — any format up to 8 MB.

Upload landlord's Emirates ID

Both sides if possible. Clear lighting, all four corners visible.

Upload tenant's Emirates ID

Same — front and back, clear and well-lit.

Upload recent DEWA bill

Any month works — needed for the Premises Number (top-right of the bill).

Step 3: Review the auto-filled contract

The AI takes 5-15 seconds to extract all DLD-required fields and populate the form. You'll see:

Owner name (from title deed)
Property number, plot number, DEWA premises (from title deed + DEWA bill)
Building name, area, property size
Both parties' names, Emirates ID numbers, nationalities

Check each field against the source document. Low-confidence extractions are highlighted yellow.

Step 4: Add the rental terms

Annual Rent (AED) — the total yearly rent agreed
Contract Period — start date and end date
Security Deposit — 5% of annual rent (unfurnished) or 10% (furnished)
Mode of Payment — 1, 2, 4, 6, or 12 cheques
Up to 8 Additional Terms — parking, pets, maintenance split, early termination, etc.

Step 5: Download and sign

Click 'Generate Contract'. The PDF is produced in 2-3 seconds. Print two original copies. Both parties sign every page. Each side keeps one. Register Ejari within 30 days.

After signing, see our Ejari registration guide for the AED 220 registration process.

Why this is free

The DLD Unified Tenancy Contract is a government-issued template — there's no licensing reason to charge for it. Typing centres historically charged for the labour of manually filling fields. AI extraction does that work better, faster, and at no cost.
