End-of-term eviction for sale, personal or first-degree-family use, demolition and rebuilding, or major works requires the conditions of the relevant ground and at least twelve months’ notice through a notary public or registered mail.
Tenant breaches, such as unpaid rent or unauthorised subletting, follow different provisions. Some grounds require notice and an opportunity to remedy; a generic twelve-month eviction notice is not the appropriate response to every breach.
Review the lease, Ejari, notice, service evidence and eviction ground together. For disputes within RDC jurisdiction, use formal proceedings and enforcement; a notice by itself is not an eviction judgment.
A practical next step
Before sending or answering a notice, identify the ground, dates and service evidence, then check the requirements of that particular route.
