Services
Every approval in Dubai combines three things: the right drawings, the right authority and the right supporting NOCs. Our services are organised the same way, so you can start from whichever you already know.
Know which authority you're dealing with? Start there. Know what you're building? Start from the project type. Need technical drawings first? Start with design.
Organised by the approving body: Dubai Municipality, Civil Defence, Trakhees, DDA, JAFZA, DEWA, RTA, DHA, free zones and master developers such as Nakheel and Emaar.
Organised by project: villa renovation, new villas, office, retail, restaurant, salon, clinic and warehouse fit-outs, change of use, completion certificates and more.
Architectural, structural and MEP drawings, villa and building design, pools, infrastructure, as-built surveys and structural evaluation, prepared for approval.

Learn moreWe are a private consultancy. Authorities and master developers review applications and decide whether to issue permits, NOCs and certificates. Our role is to work out the correct route, prepare drawings and documents that meet the requirements, coordinate submission through registered consultants or approved contractors where the rules require it, and follow the application through comments and inspections.
When you contact us, we confirm which of the services above apply to your project and send a written scope. Authority and developer fees are listed separately from our own fee.
Start with what you know: the location and what you want to do. Send us those details on WhatsApp or through the enquiry form, and we will tell you which authority, permits and drawings apply.
No. Many projects start with an idea and the title deed or tenancy contract. If drawings exist, they help us assess the route faster.
Yes. Most projects need several: for example a developer NOC, a building permit, a Civil Defence approval and a DEWA NOC. We coordinate them as one programme. See our NOC coordination service.
Share a few details and we will tell you which approvals apply, what documents you need and how we can help. There is no obligation.
