Dubai real-estate broker commission, VAT and payment timing
Brokerage commission should be agreed in the relevant brokerage document, with VAT and payment timing clear. The fee should reflect the actual represented party and service rather than an undisclosed assumption.
Apply the framework to the real facts.
Confirm the amount or percentage, VAT, trigger for payment, co-broker split, cancellation and any developer-paid commission before signing.
What to check
- Who engages the broker
- Fee and VAT
- Payment trigger
- Co-broker or referral split
- Refund or cancellation terms
- Developer incentive disclosure
Common mistakes
- Discovering the fee at transfer
- Charging both sides without disclosure
- Confusing a developer incentive with buyer savings
