What is a Deed Of Retirement From Partnership?

The Deed of Retirement from Partnership is a crucial legal document used when a partner wishes to formally withdraw from a partnership in the United Arab Emirates. This document is essential for ensuring a smooth transition and protecting all parties' interests under UAE law, particularly Federal Law No. 18 of 1993 (Commercial Transactions Law) and Federal Law No. 2 of 2015 (Commercial Companies Law). The deed comprehensively addresses the retiring partner's exit, including financial settlements, release of liabilities, confidentiality obligations, and any continuing responsibilities. It must be properly executed and often requires notarization to be legally effective in the UAE. The document is particularly important for maintaining clear records of partnership changes and ensuring compliance with local regulatory requirements regarding partnership modifications.
