Dubai tenant can be evicted for 3 main reasons

This is a non-renewable contract and you will have to vacate the apartment on expiry of the contract.” A number of landlords in Dubai are putting this clause in the rent contract addendum.
Emirates 24|7 has reported that such clauses stand invalid legally and a tenant can file a complaint with the Rental Dispute Settlement Center  (RDSC) of Dubai Land Department.

But, does that mean landlords can’t evict their tenants, at all?

“A landlord must have a legitimate reason to evict a tenant and the notice periods depend on the reason for the eviction,” says Ludmila Yamalova, Managing Partner, HPL Yamalova and Plewka JLT.

Only three reasons qualify or give the right to the landlord/property owner to evict a tenant:

1. Breach of tenancy agreement or violation of a law
2. Landlord wants to sell the property
3. Landlord wants to self-occupy the property
