Evidence to prepare for a Mashreq Bank review
- A current trade licence and applicable ownership documents, such as the MOA or share certificate; the minimum business history is product-specific.
- Company and personal bank statements plus financial accounts for the period Mashreq Bank currently requests.
- Existing personal and business commitments. The CBUAE DBR maximum for expatriates is 50%, but the lender must also stress-test affordability and may use a lower limit.
- Property and identity evidence. CBUAE LTV ceilings depend on the applicant and property category, not employment type; Mashreq Bank may approve less.
Regulatory ceilings: CBUAE mortgage regulations. Published bank checklists are not identical; see the source-led comparison in our UAE self-employed mortgage guide. We confirm Mashreq Bank’s current checklist before submission.
