Abu Dhabi: registration fee from 1 to 4%, split equally between buyer and seller by law
Abu Dhabi Executive Council Resolution No. 49/2018 (Annex 1, item 1) sets the fee for registering a sale at from 1 to 4% of the price or of the municipality’s valuation, if that is higher; unless the parties have agreed otherwise, the fee is split in half.
What this changes in the calculation
By default the buyer pays half of the fee; the whole fee only if the contract shifts it to the buyer.
