Ejari governs the tenancy registration, not the cleaning standard; what decides a deposit is the inspection checklist and whether you can evidence the work.
Ejari is the tenancy registration system. It does not set a cleaning standard, and no cleaning company can certify anything under it. What decides a deposit return is the condition report and the inspection.
So the practical answer is documentation. A completed checklist and photographs of the interiors give an agent something to check against rather than an impression to argue about.
What to check
- Read the tenancy contract for any specific handover conditions
- Photograph the property before you move your belongings out
- Have the clean done after the property is empty, not around furniture
- Keep the completed checklist and the photographs from the cleaning company
- Raise anything the agent flags within days, while the property is still empty
