Dubai’s office market closed Q4 2025 with rents continuing to rise, supported by sustained occupier demand and limited availability across key business districts. Average rents reached AED 255 per sq ft, reflecting a 32.4% year-on-year increase, although growth began to moderate towards the end of the year.

Tenant demand remains focused on smaller office units, with 63% of enquiries targeting spaces below 5,000 sq ft, while prime locations continue to command premium rents. Regulatory protections and cost certainty are increasingly influencing occupier decision-making, as many businesses prioritise tenure security over relocation.

Looking ahead, the market is expected to transition towards more selective growth and strategic repositioning across key submarkets in 2026.
