A certified true copy of an Emirates ID for a tenancy contract is a photocopy of the ID card examined against the original and certified by a licensed UAE legal professional.

Landlords, real estate agents and the Ejari registration system sometimes request this certified copy alongside the tenancy contract, to confirm the tenant’s identity matches the details on the lease and the Ejari record.

Certified Emirates ID Copies for Tenancy and Ejari

If your landlord, agent, or the Ejari system has asked for a certified true copy of Emirates ID for a tenancy contract in Dubai, this page explains what to expect, what to bring, and how the appointment works.

Who Needs This

Tenants signing a new residential or commercial tenancy contract
Landlords and property managers who require certified tenant identification for their file
Real estate agents preparing a tenancy file for Ejari registration
Tenants registering or renewing Ejari where a certified ID copy is requested
Sub-tenants or additional occupants named on a contract
Property management companies handling multiple tenant files

Who Can Attend

Each tenant named on the contract should attend with their own original Emirates ID for examination.

If a landlord or agent only needs one tenant’s ID certified, only that person needs to attend, but check the tenancy contract and Ejari requirements first, since this varies by landlord and agent.

How It Works

Confirm with your landlord, agent, or the Ejari system whether a certified Emirates ID copy is actually required.
Contact us with your appointment preference and the number of tenants needing certification.
Attend with the original Emirates ID for each named tenant.
One of our own licensed lawyers or legal consultants examines each original and certifies the copy.
Collect your certified copies to attach to the tenancy contract or Ejari file.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Certifying an Emirates ID copy before confirming whether the landlord or Ejari actually requires it
Using an outdated Emirates ID copy that does not match a renewed card
Missing that all named tenants on a joint contract may each need their own certified copy
Assuming Ejari accepts a plain scanned copy when a certified true copy has been specifically requested
Booking after the tenancy contract deadline, leaving no time to fix an issue before signing

Real-World Situations

A tenant signing a first residential lease in Dubai is asked by the landlord’s agent for a certified copy of her Emirates ID to accompany the tenancy contract before Ejari registration.

A group of flatmates on a joint tenancy contract are each asked to provide a certified Emirates ID copy so the property management file matches every named occupant.

A relocating family renewing their villa lease is asked for updated certified ID copies after their Emirates ID cards were renewed since the last tenancy.

How This Differs From General Emirates ID Certification

This page covers Emirates ID certification specifically for tenancy and Ejari purposes, which can involve matching tenant names across the ID, the contract and the Ejari record. For an Emirates ID certified copy needed for a different purpose, see the main Certified True Copy of Emirates ID page.

Our plain-language guide explains how these differ.

Frequently Asked Questions

This depends on the landlord, agent and how the Ejari registration is being processed. Not every tenancy file requires certification, so it is worth checking with your landlord or agent first.

Where a contract names more than one tenant, some landlords or agents ask for each named tenant’s ID certified separately. Check the specific requirement with your landlord or agent before booking.

We recommend booking as early as possible once you know certification is required, and same-day appointments may be available if your signing date is close. See our Same-Day / Urgent Certified True Copy Attestation page for details.

Bring your current, valid Emirates ID to the appointment. A certified copy reflects the card presented on the day, so it should match your latest details.
