On 28 September 2026, two searches of Dubai Land Department Project Status, one for Avarra By Palace and one for 4227, each returned the same official row: Project Number 4227 and Project Name Avarra By Palace. That makes the DLD number-to-name mapping citable; it does not make a marketing page, an Oqood provisional registration certificate or an escrow field interchangeable with that project record.

The match begins inside one DLD result

The strongest number-to-name evidence is a single returned record containing both values. DLD's Project Status Enquiry says the service accepts a land number, project number or project name and displays the resulting project information.

For the bounded example, the exact name search and the exact number search each returned one row at 04:24 UAE time on 28 September 2026:

The public marketing page uses Avarra by Palace. Lowercasing and normalising spaces produces the same name string as the DLD value. That match is calculated, while each original spelling remains attached to its source.

The legal developer is not inferred from the Emaar brand or web domain. It is copied from the DLD project record. This is the same identity-first method used in the cluster's launch-price and area-evidence guide.

Four records belong in four worksheet rows

The four-record worksheet prevents one familiar name from standing in for several different records. Not returned means the reviewed source omitted the field. Calculated means the value was produced locally from stated inputs. Returned null is reserved for a literal null in source data; none of the values used below needs that label.

This example has one conclusive public mapping: DLD Project Number 4227 to DLD Project Name Avarra By Palace. It does not contain a buyer-held Oqood certificate or current payment instruction, so those cells stay unresolved rather than being filled from shared wording.

Project registration and buyer registration are separate Oqood routes

DLD describes two different Oqood routes. The record level changes between them.

The Register Project service, accessed 28 September 2026, enables a real-estate development company to register a project and open an escrow account for off-plan sales. Its first procedure is submission through Oqood. Its document list includes a no-objection certificate from the main developer approving the project name, off-plan sale and marketing.

That page explains the registration path and the role of name approval. It does not expose an Avarra-specific project certificate or number-to-name pair. It therefore cannot fill the worked worksheet by itself.

The Initial Sale service, also accessed 28 September 2026, operates at a different level. DLD says a developer uses it to register an off-plan unit, or an incompletely paid land plot, in the provisional register. The listed output is a provisional registration e-certificate sent to the purchaser.

That e-certificate is buyer-specific evidence when its actual fields are available. The public service description is not the certificate. Calling both routes “Oqood” does not make their records interchangeable.

Read 4227 exactly as DLD labels it

The public interface labels 4227 as Project Number. That is the term supported by the current DLD record.

The phrase “Oqood number” can refer loosely to more than one identifier in sales material or conversation. This worksheet does not translate 4227 into that label. A buyer-held provisional registration e-certificate needs to be read with its own field names, then compared with the DLD Project Number, project name, developer and unit information.

This matters because record levels nest. A project can contain buildings, and a building can contain units. The DLD detail response for this example carries a project title and a building entry, but the article uses only the project-level number-to-name mapping. The DLD project-status field guide explains how status, inspection and completion fields stay separate once identity is established.

Escrow adds one more match, not a substitute

The DLD detail response for project 4227 returned Emirates Nbd Bank (P.J.S.C) as the escrow agent and an account value ending 8537. The suffix is calculated from the returned value; the full account value is not republished.

DLD's Register Project service places escrow-account opening inside project registration. Its Dubai REST page, accessed 28 September 2026, says beneficiaries can obtain real-time project information including the escrow account number.

Those pages support the existence and visibility of a project-linked escrow field. They do not establish that a separate instruction is current, that a transfer occurred, that a balance is available, that a contract milestone is due or that a buyer's provisional registration is complete. The official escrow-check route keeps those questions in their own evidence chain.

Use the worksheet in five passes

The repeatable check preserves the label and source of every field before it asks whether values match.

1. Start with one returned DLD row

   Search the exact project name, then the exact Project Number. Save the returned name, number, legal developer and access time. If the two searches do not resolve to the same row, mark the match unresolved.

2. Keep source wording intact

   Copy capitalization, punctuation and legal suffixes as returned. Put a normalized comparison in a separate calculated cell instead of rewriting the source value.

3. Read the buyer-held Oqood record

   Copy the certificate's own labels for project, buyer, unit and registration identifier. A missing field is not returned; it is not supplied from a brochure or a similar project name.

4. Record the marketing page separately

   Capture the page name, publisher and access date. Treat the page as evidence of the public marketing name, not as evidence of the legal developer or provisional registration.

5. Compare the escrow field last

   Place the DLD bank and masked account identifier beside the current written instruction and contract record. Any remaining difference stays unresolved until checked through DLD, RERA or a licensed professional.

What are the upcoming projects in Dubai?+

As of 28 September 2026, launch pages can surface names, while DLD Project Status can test a specific Dubai project name or number against an official returned row. A discovery list and a project record answer different questions.

What are the upcoming projects in the UAE for 2026?+

The DLD Project Status service covered here is specific to Dubai. It is not a UAE-wide launch directory, and the worksheet does not extend a Dubai record to another emirate.

What is the latest development in Dubai?+

As of 28 September 2026, “latest” depends on the record. A marketing page dates the public offer only when the page provides a date; a DLD response dates the official project fields at the time they are returned.
