Frequently Asked Questions (India Investors)
Official answers verified with UAE statutory law and bilateral agreements
Can an Indian citizen legally purchase freehold property in Dubai?
Yes. Under UAE Federal Law No. 7 of 2006 (Article 4), foreign nationals of any citizenship, including Indian citizens residing in India or overseas (NRIs), have the absolute legal right to acquire 100% freehold ownership of real estate in designated freehold areas in Dubai without requiring a local partner, sponsor, or UAE residency.

Under the Reserve Bank of India Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS), resident individuals can legally remit up to USD $250,000 per financial year for acquiring immovable property overseas. The payment is transferred via standard SWIFT wire from an Indian bank account directly to the developer RERA escrow bank account in Dubai using Form A2.
Reference: RBI Master Direction - Liberalised Remittance Scheme (FED Master Direction No. 7/2015-16).Do Indian investors have to pay tax in India on Dubai rental income?
Under Article 6 of the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) between India and the UAE, income from immovable property is taxable in the contracting state where the property is situated (Dubai). Since Dubai levies 0% personal income tax and 0% capital gains tax, your rental income remains tax-free in the UAE. Residents should declare this foreign asset and claim foreign tax credit (FTC) under Form 67 in their Indian ITR.
