“Ejar” platform to regulate the real estate rental sector, to clarify the mechanism for collecting rent owed by tenants, as part of its efforts to safeguard the rights of all parties involved in lease agreements.

The platform clarified that if a tenant is late in paying rent, the owner or landlord has the right to file a “financial enforcement” request to collect what is owed, in accordance with the following:

• Monthly or periodic payments: The lessor may file a “financial enforcement” request 15 days after the rent is due, provided that the lease term stipulates monthly or periodic rent payments at intervals of less than 180 days.
• Annual or semi-annual payments: If the lease term stipulates that rent is payable annually or semi-annually, the landlord is entitled to file a “financial enforcement” request 30 days after the rent is due.
