Jebel Ali Industrial & JAFZA Authority Approval Experts

What?

What approvals are required for JAFZA & Jebel Ali?

Industrial facilities under PCFC jurisdiction require a Trakhees Building Permit (CED) for any structural modification. Additionally, an EHS (Environment, Health & Safety) NOC is mandatory for operational fitness and trade license renewal.

Why?

Why is Trakhees compliance vital?

Without a valid Trakhees permit, your facility risks Gate Pass suspension, massive industrial fines, and the rejection of DEWA power upgrades. Legal compliance is essential for insurance validity and passing annual safety audits.

Who?

Who manages the Trakhees submission?

As a registered contractor, Dar Al Naseeb manages the Trakhees E-Permit portal. We handle the structural engineering, MEP design coordination, and the critical Civil Defense (DCD) interface required for industrial units.

Where?

Where do these regulations apply?

These rules cover JAFZA North & South, Jebel Ali Industrial Area 1 & 2 (special zones), and any development managed by the Ports, Customs, and Free Zone Corporation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I check if my warehouse is under Trakhees or DM?
Generally, if your lease is with JAFZA or you are located in a PCFC-managed zone, it is Trakhees. Check your 'Site Plan'—the logo at the top will confirm your jurisdiction.
Can I build a mezzanine without increasing GFA?
Any mezzanine added is considered an increase in Built-up Area (BUA). You must pay the Trakhees review fees and ensure the structural foundation can support the additional industrial load.
What is the role of EHS in the approval process?
EHS ensures your facility handles chemicals, waste, and fire safety correctly. You cannot get a Building Permit (CED) without first obtaining the EHS Activity Verification NOC.
