What is a developer NOC in Dubai?

A No Objection Certificate from the master developer confirming service charges are clear and they have no objection to a transfer, mortgage, or modification of the unit.

How much does a developer NOC cost?

Typically AED 500–5,000. Emaar ~AED 5,250, Damac ~AED 2,100, Nakheel ~AED 1,580, smaller developers AED 500–1,500.

How long does an NOC take?

3–7 working days at most developers. Emaar and Damac usually issue in 3–5 days once service charges are settled.
