JAFZA Annual Fire Test Certificate
A JAFZA annual fire test certificate is a yearly document, issued by a DCD-approved third party, certifying that the smoke detectors, fire alarm, extinguishers, sprinklers, hose reels and fire pump at your facility were tested and found compliant — with your plot number stated clearly on the certificate.

What JAFZA asks for, exactly
JAFZA is specific: all fire protection systems installed at your facility shall be tested annually, the test certificate shall be obtained from a DCD-approved third party, and your facility or plot number shall be mentioned clearly in the test certificate. Every part matters.
- Smoke detectors, fire alarm, extinguishers, sprinklers, hose reels and fire pump.
- Tested at least once every 12 months.
- Certificate issued by a Dubai Civil Defence approved third party.
- Facility or plot number printed clearly on the certificate.
- A general service report from a non-approved company is not accepted.
Why the plot number detail fails facilities
Certificates get rejected because the plot number is missing, abbreviated wrongly, refers to an old tenancy, or names the building instead of the leased unit. We confirm the exact JAFZA plot reference before the certificate is issued.
- Plot/facility number verified against your JAFZA lease.
- Printed verbatim on the certificate, not paraphrased.
- Correct unit reference, not just the building name.
- Avoids re-issuing the document during a compliance check.
- Matches the AMC records for the same plot.
From site test to issued certificate
QSERV tests each system, rectifies any defects found, then coordinates the DCD-approved certificate. Where QSERV also holds your AMC, the maintenance record and the certificate stay perfectly aligned.
- Full functional test of every installed fire system.
- Defect list with corrective action before certification.
- DCD-approved third-party certificate issued for your plot.
- Copy retained for JAFZA submission and your records.
- Renewal reminder before the 12-month expiry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Direct answers for JAFZA tenants obtaining the annual fire test certificate.
Which systems must be on the JAFZA annual fire test certificate?
Smoke detectors, fire alarm systems, fire extinguishers, sprinklers, hose reels and the fire pump installed at your facility must each be tested annually and covered by the certificate.
Who can issue a valid JAFZA fire test certificate?
Only a Dubai Civil Defence (DCD) approved third party can issue a valid annual fire test certificate. A report from an unapproved maintenance company will not be accepted by JAFZA or DCD.
Must my plot number appear on the certificate?
Yes. JAFZA explicitly requires your facility or plot number to be mentioned clearly on the test certificate. A missing or incorrect plot number can lead to rejection even if every system passed.
How often is the certificate needed?
At least annually. The certificate has a 12-month validity, so a new third-party test and certificate is required each year to stay compliant.
What if a system fails the test?
Any defect must be rectified before the certificate can be issued. QSERV identifies the failed items, fixes the blockers and documents the corrective action, then proceeds with certification.
