UAE Sets Housing Support Criteria for Unmarried Emirati Women
These regulations define eligibility categories for the Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme.
The UAE Cabinet has introduced new regulations specifying eligibility criteria for unmarried Emirati women seeking housing support under the Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme.
The updated policy outlines six main categories of eligible applicants, including widows with children, divorced women with custody of their children, orphans, women of unknown parentage, women who have lost both parents, and elderly women.
Women who do not fall under these categories must apply for housing assistance through their parents’ applications. The regulations align with Cabinet Resolution No. (61) of 2021, which sets out the conditions and framework for government-funded housing support.
The Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme aims to enhance family stability and provide a high standard of living for Emirati citizens. The updated regulations reinforce the UAE’s commitment to social welfare, ensuring that housing support is allocated based on structured eligibility criteria to those in need.
