Oqood
Oqood is the Dubai Land Department system that registers an off-plan property sale before the building exists and a title deed can be issued.
An Oqood registration records the buyer's interest in a unit that is still under construction. It is the off-plan equivalent of a title deed and is what protects a buyer's claim to the specific unit they paid for.
On handover, the Oqood registration is replaced by a title deed once the project is completed and the unit is formally transferred.
