Document background
An Office Lease Termination Letter is a crucial document used in the United Arab Emirates when a commercial tenant needs to formally end their office lease agreement. This document must be drafted in compliance with the UAE Civil Code, relevant emirate-specific real estate laws, and registration requirements such as EJARI (Dubai) or TAWTHEEQ (Abu Dhabi). It serves as official documentation of the tenant's intention to vacate the premises and typically includes specific termination dates, notice period confirmations, and property handover arrangements. The letter is essential for protecting both parties' legal interests and ensuring a smooth transition process. It should be used when a business decides to terminate their office lease, whether at the end of the term or through early termination provisions, and must account for local commercial property regulations and standard business practices in the UAE.
