Trakheesi

Also called: advertising permit, permit number

Trakheesi is Dubai's permit system for property advertising, and a legitimate listing carries a permit number issued through it.

Every property advertisement in Dubai is supposed to carry a permit, which ties the listing to a licensed broker and a real property. The number is normally displayed on the listing itself.

For a buyer it is a quick first check: a listing with no permit number, or one that does not match the advertised property, is a reason to ask questions before going further.
