## Short answer

Zoya Developments gives Elanora by Zoya a Q3 2027 handover, but the DLD register lists a completion date of 31 March 2028. The DLD recorded 0% progress at its only inspection so far, on 16 April 2026. The registered date appears to have moved from 30 September 2027, so buyers have two dates six months apart.

## Key figures

- Registered completion date (DLD): 31 Mar 2028 (DLD register via Continental Club, as at 8 Oct 2026)
- Latest construction progress: 0% (DLD inspection, 16 Apr 2026)
- Developer's stated date: Q3 2027 (Zoya Developments, accessed 11 Oct 2026)
- Earlier registered date: 30 Sep 2027 (Register as quoted by Sofia Sands)

## Elanora by Zoya handover date: the latest position

Zoya Developments gives a Q3 2027 handover for Elanora on its project site. The Dubai Land Department (DLD) register lists a completion date of 31 March 2028, six months later. See the full project guide for [Elanora by Zoya](/projects/elanora-by-zoya/).

No construction progress has been published. The only DLD inspection, on 16 April 2026, recorded 0%, and the register now gives a construction start of 30 June 2026. With the marketed handover about a year away as of October 2026, the registered March 2028 date leaves more time for the build than Q3 2027.

## Elanora by Zoya handover date by building

Elanora is one building of 117 furnished apartments, registered as a single project.

| Building | Construction progress (DLD, date) | Registered completion date | Developer or portal date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elanora By Zoya (117 units) | 0% (16 Apr 2026) | 31 Mar 2028 | Q3 2027 (Zoya Developments; Propsearch; Projectory) |

## How the Elanora by Zoya handover date has changed

| Date | What was published | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Mar 2026 | First recorded on Propsearch; launch from AED 586,000; estimated handover Q3 2027 | Propsearch |
| Earlier in 2026 | Register lists start 16 March 2026 and completion 30 September 2027 | Sofia Sands, quoting the register |
| 16 Apr 2026 | DLD inspection: 0% | DLD register via Continental Club |
| 8 Oct 2026 | Register lists start 30 June 2026 and completion 31 March 2028 | DLD register via Continental Club |
| 11 Oct 2026 | Zoya still markets Q3 2027 | Zoya Developments |

Zoya's other Dubai projects give context. Pristine by Zoya in Al Furjan, the most advanced, was 58.39% complete on 20 August 2026 against a registered completion date of 1 January 2027 (see [Pristine by Zoya](/projects/pristine-by-zoya/)). No Zoya project in Dubai had been handed over by October 2026, so Elanora's date cannot yet be checked against a delivery record.

The earlier register dates could only be found on a broker page, so the change is likely but not confirmed by a second source. Zoya has not published a revised quarter.

## What the Elanora by Zoya handover date means for payments

Propsearch records the plan as 5% on booking, 45% during construction, 10% on handover and 40% after handover, and Projectory says payments run 40 months after handover. The handover date sets when the 10% falls due and when the 40-month schedule starts. If handover follows the registered 31 March 2028 rather than Q3 2027, both move back by about six months.

## What to check before relying on the Elanora by Zoya date

1. **The completion date written in the SPA.** Contracts signed in early 2026 may carry the earlier 30 September 2027 date, which affects any delay claim.
2. **A fresh DLD inspection for project 4459**, since no progress had been published after April 2026.
3. **When the 40% post-handover schedule begins**, and whether it is tied to the actual handover date.
