Dubai Listing Verification Is Now Fully Automated
The document upload and manual verification steps are no longer required for all residential listings in Dubai. Verification is handled automatically through the DLD API using your valid Trakheesi permit.
Once a listing is published, it’s instantly submitted for verification. Our Quality Control team then reviews the images, title, and description to ensure they meet our standards and comply with regulatory requirements.
You can track the submission status in Insights as shown below:
Tip: Property Finder automatically identifies and submits listings that meet our quality guidelines for verification.
Tip: Confirm eligibility by entering the title-deed number in the format “title-deed number/year” when you submit.

Why was my listing rejected for verification on Property Finder?
| A listing can be rejected for verification for multiple reasons, and it will be flagged in the Listing Action Tracker as shown: |
|
You will get an email with the exact reason and how to fix it, some of the reasons are:
- •Your images are showing people in them.
- •You upload more than 30 images.
- •The images, title, description, and price are not matching.
- •Incorrect location selected.
- •Inaccurate price or size.
- •Phone number mentioned in the description.
- •The word "Distressed" in the description or the title.
Note: If a property listing has already been verified by three different brokers (six for rental listings) using the same Trakheesi permit number (in the case of sale listings) or the same title deed number (in the case of rental listings) it will also be rejected.
In this case, you may amend the listing details and resubmit the listing through the portal from the listing action tracker to be reviewed once more.
