Ajman Issues New Real Estate Law to Enhance Investor Protection and Market Transparency
New legal framework aims to boost confidence and sustainability in the emirate's real estate sector

Ajman, under the leadership of His Highness Sheikh Humaid bin Rashid Al Nuaimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Ajman, has issued Law No. (1) of 2025 to strengthen investor protection and ensure greater transparency in the real estate sector.
The newly introduced real estate law aims to create a more sustainable, regulated, and investor-friendly environment, aligning with Ajman’s vision to attract capital and improve governance in property development.
The law applies to:
- Undeveloped land designated for joint real estate ventures
- Dilapidated buildings slated for redevelopment
- Under-construction projects registered under the real estate contribution system
Key Legal Features:
- Oversight will be conducted by the Department of Land and Real Estate Regulation, which will:
- Issue initial approvals to licensed real estate offices
- Supervise all contribution-related activity
- Maintain a centralized Real Estate Contribution Register
This register—available in both digital and physical formats—will store essential legal information on:
- Developers and investors
- Ownership shares
- Property sizes
- Project amendments
This move provides clear legal safeguards, enhances investor confidence, and encourages lawyers and legal advisors to actively engage in shaping compliant, transparent development deals within Ajman.
With this latest legal update, Ajman sets a benchmark for real estate governance in the UAE, supporting both local and international investors through a robust legal infrastructure
