It may need regularising with Nakheel and Trakhees before your own works can be approved.
Is the Previous Owner's Extension Approved in JVC?
Do not assume it is. JVC is an established community, and many villas have extensions, enclosed terraces or garden rooms added over the years. The plans from Nakheel show what was approved.

Is the Previous Owner's Extension Approved in JVC: The Short Answer
| Step | Who | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | You and our engineers | Your idea, photos and plot details. We get the villa plans from Nakheel and check them against what is built. |
| 2 | Nakheel (online portal) | Reviews the design against its community rules and issues the NOC. |
| 3 | Trakhees | Building permit for structural works. |
| 4 | Nakheel and Trakhees | Inspections and completion. |
What Nakheel and Trakhees Look At Here
- Villa plans: Nakheel can provide the plans of your villa; check them against what is actually built
- Changes on site: build what was approved; changes during works need fresh approval
- Nakheel NOC first: apply through the Nakheel online portal before any permit or works
What to Send Us
- Title deed and owner ID
- Photos of the villa and the area to change
- Villa plans (Nakheel can provide these)
- Your idea: a sketch is enough to start
- Drawings and structural calculations (we prepare these)
