NOC — No Objection Certificate
A transaction-specific confirmation from the relevant issuer that it does not object to the stated property action.
An NOC is a transaction-specific confirmation that its issuer does not object to the stated property action. DLD currently lists a developer e-NOC for its freehold property-sale registration service. The NOC’s scope, checks, validity and timing depend on the issuer and transaction, so it should be read alongside the sale agreement and property record.
Also used: No Objection Certificate / Developer e-NOC

Why this term changes the decision.
For DLD’s current property-sale registration service, an e-NOC from the developer is listed among the required documents for freehold-area sales. A missing or expired NOC can therefore stop that registration route.

02 / Official evidence
What the current authority record supports.
The live DLD sale-registration card identifies the developer e-NOC requirement. It does not say that every NOC has identical wording, proves every possible liability is clear, or replaces review of the sale agreement and property record.
