Questions clients ask
Straight answers first.
Can foreigners own property in the UAE?
Yes, in designated freehold areas, and through leasehold elsewhere. Ownership rules differ by emirate and by structure, and succession planning matters because default inheritance rules may apply to UAE assets without a registered will.
