Frequently Asked Questions (Australia Investors)
Official answers verified with UAE statutory law and bilateral agreements
Can an Australian citizen legally purchase freehold real estate in Dubai?
Yes. Under UAE Federal Law No. 7 of 2006 (Article 4), Australian citizens have full legal rights to acquire 100% freehold real estate in designated freehold zones across Dubai without requiring a local partner, sponsor, or UAE residency.

Australian tax residents are taxed on their worldwide income. Foreign rental income from Dubai must be declared on your Australian tax return. However, because Dubai levies 0% personal income tax and 0% capital gains tax, your net cash returns are preserved in hard USD-pegged currency without any foreign tax deductions.
