The Government of Dubai land department issues ownership certificates for the inheritors through registering the immovable capital in their names instead of the deceased based on the legal announcement issued from the court of justice, where the number of inheritors is decided and land areas are distributed amongst them either based to the Islamic law or according to the deceased pre-written will.

New ownership certificates are issued for the land/lands in question according to the inheritors share in them, where some might then abdicate their share for a sum of money paid by the rest of the inheritors. This abdication of a share is documented in the legal proclamation and is considered as a part of the inheritance transfer process.
