The Challenge
A villa owner on Palm Jumeirah needed approval from Trakhees and a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from Nakheel for renovation works at the villa, quoted in LML/QTN/1097. Work on a Palm Jumeirah villa is regulated by the master developer Nakheel as well as Trakhees, so the drawings have to satisfy both sets of regulation before the NOC and inspection can release completion. The AED 7,000 professional fee covers preparing drawings as per Nakheel and Trakhees regulation, obtaining the NOC from Nakheel, and conducting the inspection that releases completion.
The quotation keeps the fee final with clear limits: the client supplies the existing drawings, documents and green files; exceptional approval requirements, an inspection failure or a design revision each carry an additional charge; an extra AED 4,000 applies if the submission is made through a contracting company; and VAT is separate. Confirming the existing documents at the start is what protects the quoted AED 7,000 fee.
