Is this the figure I will actually be billed?

It is the rate RERA approved for the building budget, which is what your owners' association bills against, multiplied by your unit's built-up area. Invoicing is usually quarterly through Mollak. Your own invoice can differ if your unit has a different usage type — parking and retail are budgeted separately — so check your Mollak statement for the exact amount.

The approved rate was AED 13.82 per sqft in 2024 and is AED 11.38 for 2025 — down 17.7% since 2024. Owners' associations must submit a budget to RERA each year, so increases follow an approved cost rather than a landlord decision.
