Frequently asked questions
Before we begin.
I am buying property in Dubai from Croatia. What should I check?
Review who you are buying from, what the purchase documents say about payments, handover and delays, and how the property will be held. Tax and reporting questions in Croatia should be checked with advisers there.
Should I make a UAE will if I already have one in Croatia?
Many people with UAE assets consider a UAE will so that their wishes for those assets are clear here. How it fits with any will in Croatia should be reviewed so the documents work together.
Can I start the conversation from Croatia?
Yes. Use the enquiry form to introduce yourself, the people or businesses involved and what you want to achieve, wherever you are in Croatia or the UAE. Keep it brief and avoid confidential documents until an engagement is agreed. An enquiry does not create a lawyer-client relationship.
Do you advise on the law of Croatia?
Our practice is based in Dubai. Where your matter also involves the law of Croatia, we will say so early and discuss coordinating with appropriately qualified advisers there.
