Frequently Asked Questions
Is there property tax in Dubai?
No. Dubai has no annual property tax, no capital gains tax, no rental income tax, and no inheritance tax on real estate. The only government charges are the one-time 4% DLD transfer fee at purchase and annual municipality fees of 5% of annual rent (for tenants) or a flat housing fee for owners. This makes Dubai one of the most tax-efficient property markets globally.
How does Dubai compare to London or New York for property taxes?
Dubai's total annual tax burden on property is effectively 0%. London charges Council Tax (GBP 1,500–3,000+/year), Stamp Duty (up to 12%), and capital gains tax (18–28%). New York charges property tax (0.8–1.9% of assessed value annually), plus state and federal income tax on rental income and capital gains. On a $1M property, annual tax costs are roughly $0 in Dubai vs $8,000–19,000 in New York vs $5,000–12,000 in London.
