A Guide To Listing Your Property As A Vacation Home In Dubai

Everyone’s talking about it.

It’s got your attention as well.

The world of online holiday rental marketplaces.

You’re thinking about becoming a host but not sure how?

What does it take to become a holiday home owner in Dubai?

Is it lucrative? Safe?

Let’s get started.

Firstly, vacation rental companies in Dubai are regulated.

Hosts who want to rent out their properties in Dubai need to register with the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DTCM).

This is how you can obtain a permit to list your property.

This surely works in the favor of guests because it assures that the accommodation they are booking has been classified as per DTCM requirements.

As a host, you will be responsible for ensuring that your activities comply with local legislation and regulation.

Now let’s talk about the process:

To register and obtain a permit with DTCM you need to:

  1. On the DTCM Holiday Homes website, register for an online ‘Home Owner’ account. Here’s the link:  hh.dtcm.gov.ae/holidayhomes
  2. Follow the steps, submit the required documents and pay the necessary fees at the Dubai Tourism office. This will start your approval process.
  3. Once the approval is done, you will get your own username and account. Congratulations, you’re an approved holiday home provider!
  4. Next, you need to apply for a permit.
    Click ‘add unit’; fill the property details form; attach the required documents.

The documents include:

  • The unit Title Deed
  • Your passport copy
  • Authorization letter
  • Recent DEWA bill from the unit
  1. Then submit the application and wait for DTCM approval and pay for the permit.
  2. At last, you’ll be issued a certificate, which you must make visible somewhere in your property.
