Why Was My Nakheel Plot Access NOC Returned?

The most common reason is the drawing format: Nakheel expects the plot access drawings as PDF plus AutoCAD in DLTM coordinates, matching the RTA-approved access design. Drawings in another format, or not matching RTA’s design, are returned.

How to Fix It

Prepare the drawings from a site survey in DLTM coordinates, show the plot limit, kerb cut, interlock and tie-in clearly, and make sure they match the RTA-approved design — then resubmit both PDF and AutoCAD.

Documents Required

  • Title deed and affection plan
  • Owner passport and Emirates ID copy
  • Survey-based drawings in PDF and AutoCAD DLTM
  • RTA-approved access design (for the developer NOC)

Key Technical Rules

  • Order of approvals: RTA access design study → developer plot access NOC → RTA construction NOC → sidewalk modification permit.
  • DLTM drawings: developers such as Nakheel return drawings that are not PDF plus AutoCAD DLTM.
  • Outside the plot limit: kerb, verge and interlock works are in the road reserve.
  • No early works: concept approval alone does not allow works on site.
  • Deposit refund: after the works are inspected and accepted.

Why Was My Nakheel Plot Access NOC Returned? — FAQs

Why was my Nakheel plot access NOC returned?

Usually because the drawings were not in PDF plus AutoCAD DLTM, or did not match the RTA-approved design.

Can you fix and resubmit it?

Yes — we survey, redraw in DLTM and resubmit.

Do you prepare the access drawings?

Yes — we survey the site and prepare access, kerb, interlock and tie-in drawings in AutoCAD (DLTM) and PDF.

Can works start before all approvals?

No — access, kerb and interlock works should start only after the RTA construction NOC and sidewalk modification permit are issued.

Who handles the submissions?

We prepare the drawings and handle the RTA and developer submissions as your consultant.
