Moving home
Choose where from and where to, flat or villa, and the moving date — and get everything to do in order: registering the lease, moving electricity, water and the deposit, closing the old account and getting the deposit back, moving the internet, and updating your address — with official fees and links.
Your checklist stays on your phone only

Questions
Are the fees certain?
They are what the official pages published on 19 October 2026. Where a page gives no amount we say «not published». Check the page before paying.
In Dubai, do I open a DEWA account myself?
No — registering Ejari creates the DEWA account and you get a message to pay the deposit: AED 2,000 for a flat, AED 4,000 for a villa.
When do I update my address?
ICP asks for changes in your details within a month, through its «Data Update» service.
