How can we help you?

In the UAE, any layout modification requires official approval. Without proper authorisation, a project may face fines, delays, or even a complete work halt.

We are a team of licensed engineers and architects specialising in obtaining permits in Dubai and the rest of the UAE. We take care of bureaucracy so you can focus on your project.

As a result, you receive legal approvals quickly and with no risk of rejection or project disruption.

* We understand that speed and simplicity of approvals are the foremost important for your project, which is why we specifically focus on this.

Work stages

We make the approval process simple and clear for you.
The workflow includes:

1. Consultation with our specialist

Submit a request — our specialist contacts you to clarify details. If needed, we visit the site and review existing drawings. Free consultation on required permits and steps.
2. Contract & project preparation

We conclude a service agreement. Our team prepares a technical brief and necessary drawings (architectural, structural, MEP) in line with authority requirements, and collects all supporting documents (title deeds, appointment, undertakings, etc.).
3. Getting approvals & submissions

We submit the package to all relevant authorities: Dubai Municipality, Civil Defence, DEWA, etc. Simultaneously, we secure building/community approvals if required. We handle all communication in Arabic and English on your behalf.
4. Handing over the permit and work commencement

After review, the authority issues the NOC permit (Non-Objection Certificate). We obtain and hand it to you. If desired, we can continue support — e.g., architectural supervision or connecting you with trusted contractors.

Roman E.

Villa owner

"We were planning to combine the kitchen with the living room and relocate the wet area. The team immediately explained that it falls under major works and that we’d need a package with engineering input. They prepared the ‘before/after’ plans, coordinated with the community and the municipality. Took a bit longer than we hoped, but without unnecessary hassle on our side."

Nadine S.

Architect

"The project included several partitions and a new ceiling layout. The team carefully adjusted our drawings to meet the requirements and added what the community demanded. The inspector’s comments were resolved in one round. The client is happy, and no time was lost."

Farah H.

Apartment owner

"I wanted to relocate the laundry and add a storage niche. They explained what changes were permissible and what would require an engineer. The documents were submitted quickly, and the final permit was approved without rejections. I appreciated that they didn’t promise ‘tomorrow,’ but gave a realistic deadline — and delivered on it."

Dmitry K.

General contractor

"We did a comprehensive apartment remodel in Downtown. ArchiStruct handled all communication with Community Management. A couple of days were spent clarifying fire safety matters, but they warned us in advance. Pricing — fixed for the submission, with deposits and fees separate. Everything was transparent."
