What is the DDA Villa Extension Sign-Off Process?
The DDA sign-off process requires: Emaar final NOC (must be obtained first); as-built completion drawings in DDA format; DDA BPS portal completion inspection request; DDA inspector site visit confirming works match permit drawings; any outstanding DDA fees cleared; and DDA completion certificate issued. The permit record is then closed and the title deed is clear for transfer. Structural Solutions prepares all DDA sign-off documentation and coordinates the inspection.
