Couture by Cavalli Payment Plan: What's Published and What Isn't
No payment plan has been published for Couture by Cavalli; your advisor requests it from DAMAC directly. The DLD registration fee is 4%, which is AED 840,000 on the AED 21 million starting price.
No payment plan has been published for Couture by Cavalli. That is the direct answer: DAMAC has not released an instalment schedule for this tower, and your advisor requests it directly from DAMAC once you have a unit in mind. What is confirmed is the Dubai Land Department registration fee, 4% of the purchase price, which comes to AED 840,000 on the AED 21 million starting price.
Why there is nothing to quote here
It would be easy to assume a payment plan based on what other DAMAC projects publish, but doing that for Couture by Cavalli would mean inventing a number that DAMAC has not confirmed. DAMAC's 61-page brochure, sent to Orven in February 2024, does not include a payment structure for this tower, and the direct confirmation from DAMAC on 09 November 2026 covered price, units in sale and the 2028 handover year, not a schedule of instalments. Until DAMAC confirms a plan in writing, none should be quoted.
What your advisor can request on your behalf
Once you shortlist a bedroom count and a budget, your advisor contacts DAMAC to request the current instalment structure for Couture by Cavalli specifically. That request typically returns a plan tied to construction milestones and the 2028 handover, but the exact percentages and dates are DAMAC's to confirm, not something to estimate here.
The DLD registration fee, calculated
The Dubai Land Department charges a 4% registration fee on the purchase price for any Dubai property, on plan or completed. On the AED 21 million starting price for the Couture by Cavalli project, that fee comes to AED 840,000.
| Item | Amount at AED 21M |
|---|---|
| Starting price | AED 21,000,000 |
| DLD registration fee (4%) | AED 840,000 |
This fee sits outside any payment plan. It is paid at registration (Oqood for off-plan purchases), separately from the instalments DAMAC eventually confirms for the purchase price itself.
How escrow protects you while the plan is pending
Whatever instalments DAMAC confirms, they are paid into an escrow account controlled by the Dubai Land Department, not handed directly to the developer. Funds release according to verified construction progress. That protection applies regardless of how the payment plan is eventually structured, which is one reason the absence of a published plan today does not change how safely your money is held once you do pay.
What this means for your budget today
Right now, you can budget with certainty for two figures: the AED 21 million starting price for the project, with your advisor confirming which layout and unit it applies to, and the AED 840,000 DLD fee at that price. The instalment breakdown of the AED 21 million remains open until DAMAC confirms it, so treat any percentage you see elsewhere online as unverified until your advisor has it in writing.

Why DAMAC's other projects are not a reliable guide here
Different DAMAC towers run different payment structures: some ask for a lighter deposit with a heavier construction-period share, others collect more upfront. Because these structures vary from one DAMAC project to the next, there is no safe way to infer Couture by Cavalli's eventual plan from any other DAMAC project's published percentages. Each tower's plan is confirmed on its own terms, and this guide avoids borrowing a number from elsewhere and presenting it as likely.
What happens once DAMAC does publish a plan
When DAMAC confirms the instalment structure for Couture by Cavalli, it will typically specify a percentage due on booking, one or more percentages tied to construction milestones, and a final share due on the 2028 handover. Your advisor shares that structure the moment it is confirmed, along with the exact amounts calculated against your chosen unit's final price.
