Oqood

01

What It Means

Oqood is Dubai's system for registering off-plan property sales with the land authority before the title deed is issued.

02

Why It Matters

Registering the off-plan contract protects the buyer's interest in the property. A registration fee applies. Once the property completes, the Oqood registration transitions to a title deed.

03

Simple Example

An off-plan buyer registers their sale agreement under Oqood, and at handover the registration is converted into a title deed in their name.
