1. What is the Dubai Rent Increase Calculator?

The Dubai Rent Increase Calculator estimates your new rental amount for 2025 based on the current rent and the official RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Agency) index rate. It helps tenants and landlords determine the maximum allowable rent increase according to Dubai's rental laws.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the RERA rent increase formula:

\[ \text{New Rent} = \text{Current Rent} \times (1 + \text{RERA Index Rate for 2025}) \]

Where:

Current Rent — Your existing annual rent amount in AED
RERA Index Rate — The percentage increase allowed for 2025 as per RERA guidelines

Explanation: The calculation applies the RERA-approved percentage increase to your current rent to determine the new maximum allowable rent.

3. Understanding RERA Rent Increase

Details: RERA sets annual rent increase caps based on how much the current rent compares to average market rents. The increase percentage varies depending on whether your rent is below, at, or above market rates.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your current annual rent in AED and the applicable RERA index rate for 2025 (as a percentage). The calculator will show your new maximum allowable rent for 2025.
