What the rule says at renewal
A landlord in Dubai cannot raise a renewal rent by any amount they like. Decree 43 of 2013 caps the increase by how far your current rent sits below the RERA Smart Rental Index figure for your building, which has been building-specific since January 2025: within 10% of the index, no increase; 11 to 20% below, up to 5%; 21 to 30% below, 10%; 31 to 40% below, 15%; more than 40% below, 20%. Any increase needs 90 days written notice before the renewal date, or the old rent stands for another term.
The medians above are the market; the index is the law. If your renewal asks for more than the slab allows, the rent increase calculator shows the ceiling in seconds, and the Rental Disputes Centre holds that line consistently. Weighing up buying instead? The rent vs buy calculator runs Jumeirah Village Circle on these registered rents and the registered sale medians.

Are these asking rents?
No. Every figure on this page is a registered Ejari contract, the rent a tenant actually signed for, recorded by the Dubai Land Department. Portal asking rents in most communities run above what tenants end up paying, so an asking rent well above the median here is a negotiation, not a market.

Only what the Decree 43 of 2013 slabs allow against the RERA Smart Rental Index figure for your building, with 90 days written notice before renewal. Within 10% of the index average no increase is permitted; 11 to 20% below allows up to 5%; 21 to 30% below, 10%; 31 to 40% below, 15%; more than 40% below, 20%. The rent increase calculator on this site checks your exact position.
