What is 租约续签?
现有租约在原到期日届满后以新条款（通常会有租金调整）延续的合同安排，迪拜的续约租金调整须遵守RERA租金计算器的最高涨幅规定，以保护长期租户免受过度的租金急涨冲击。
Description
Lease renewal is the process of extending an existing tenancy beyond its original term. In Dubai, residential leases auto-renew on the same terms unless either party provides 90 days' written notice before expiry. Landlords seeking a rent increase must reference the RERA Rental Index calculator, a tool that determines permissible increases based on how far current rent falls below market averages.
0% increase: If current rent is within 10% below market average
5% increase: If 11%-20% below market
10% increase: If 21%-30% below market
15% increase: If 31%-40% below market
20% increase: If more than 40% below market
In real estate investment, this concept directly affects return calculations and due diligence analysis for any property acquisition.
How to interpret
Lease renewal is where rental income growth is either captured or deferred. In a rising market, the RERA calculator's tiered increase caps mean that landlords who have not increased rent in previous cycles face a compounding loss-to-lease problem. Tracking where in-place rents sit relative to the RERA index eparticularly renewal cycle is important income management.
The notice requirements for lease renewal are non-negotiable under Dubai law. A landlord who sends a rent increase notice via WhatsApp or email without using notary public or registered mail has not met the legal requirement, meaning the increase cannot be enforced at that renewal. Procedure matters as much as intent.
迪拜市场背景
The RERA Rental Index is updated periodically and reflects actual Ejari-registered transactions in each building and community. Landlords should check the index before eparticularly renewal to calculate the maximum permissible increase. The index is available through the RERA website and the Dubai REST app.
Dubai's rental increase cap system creates a predictable rent growth path for tenants and a limited income growth trajectory for landlords in stable markets. In rapidly appreciating markets, where actual rents outpace the index, the 20% maximum cap means landlords may need 3-5 renewal cycles to fully close a large loss-to-lease gap.
