A 20% rent increase
that turned out to be illegal.
It started the way it does for thousands of tenants every year. A renewal notice arrived with a 20% rent increase. The landlord said it was "market rate." No explanation. No breakdown.
After weeks of searching through government websites, legal forums, and conflicting advice online, one thing became clear: the increase was completely illegal under Decree No. 43 of 2013.
The law was on the tenant's side all along. They just didn't know it. And neither do most of the 9.2 million expats renting across the UAE.
That's why RentShield was built.

"I built the tool I wish
I had as a tenant."
When my own landlord demanded a massive rent increase, I realized something troubling: even as someone comfortable with technology and research, it took me weeks to figure out my basic rights.
Most tenants don't have weeks. They have a renewal deadline approaching, a family depending on them, and a landlord who won't wait.
RentShield puts the answer in your hands in seconds — not weeks. We've read the laws so you don't have to. Every tool we build answers one question: "What can I actually do right now?"
