FUTURE EXPANSION

The Phase 2 Project

Dubai has established itself as the business, entertainment and service hub of the Middle East. Given the vast diversity of its economic activities and its diminishing dependence on oil revenues, Dubai has achieved superior and consistent growth in its GDP of 8% per annum. Through Emaar’s innovation and effective implementation, Dubai’s real estate sector has been a key driver in Dubai’s development, posting strong growth over the past several years. Continued double-digit growth in this sector will be fuelled by an increase in Dubai’s expatriate population coupled with the ongoing development of high quality real estate and commercial letting infrastructure all around the city, particularly in the areas of Jebel Ali and Jumeirah

In order to benefit from this growth opportunity, Emaar Properties has approved the Gold & Diamond Park Phase 2 Project, with construction commencing this summer. The project will serve as a significant extension to the existing park.

The rent for the unit being leased,
15% of the yearly unit rent as refundable security deposit,
15% of the yearly unit rent as fit out deposit (refundable),

Any other charges

On receiving the lease agreement, the JAFZA license should be applied for at the Jabel Ali Authority offices with the following documents:- 
The necessary application form to be filled, along with the partnership agreement or memorandum of association which ever applicable,

A copy of the lease agreement,
Payment of AED5,500.00 licensing fee,
The application can either be done by the tenant or the PRO of the GDP at an annual cost of AED2,500.00 per year. This charge will entitle the tenant to all services with JAFZA on their behalf by the PRO for a period of one year from the date of the license application. Alternatively, the charges will be on a per transaction basis to be decided between the tenant and the GDP Management.

After receiving the necessary applications, the Jabel Ali Free Zone Authority will issue the certificate of incorporation and a letter to the bank of the tenant’s choice where the account is to be opened.

Once the account is opened, the bank will issue a letter addressed to JAFZA confirming that the required capital has been deposited.

Once the Residence Visa is stamped, the tenant must apply for ID Cards from the GDP Management for entrance to the park. The cost of the ID Card is AED100.00 per year or AED150.00 for two years.

Once the fit out of the unit has been completed to the satisfaction of the GDP Management, the 15% cheque deposit will be returned to the tenant.
