## Short answer

The Lumena by Omniyat handover date is Q4 2029, and the registered completion date on the Dubai Land Department (DLD) register is 30 December 2029. The DLD recorded 0% at its inspection of 25 March 2026, and Omniyat said on 30 August 2026 that enabling works had been awarded. Propsearch reports a Q3 2029 target at launch in June 2025, so the date has already moved back one quarter.

## Key figures

- Registered completion date: 30 Dec 2029 (DLD register via Mitchells, 4 Oct 2026)
- Latest construction progress: 0% (DLD inspection, 25 Mar 2026)
- Developer's stated date: Q4 2029 (Omniyat, 25 Aug 2025 and project page, Oct 2026)
- Target at launch: Q3 2029 (Propsearch, June 2025 entry)

## Lumena by Omniyat handover date: the latest position

Omniyat gives Q4 2029 as the completion date for Lumena, its office tower at the gateway to Business Bay. The Dubai Land Department (DLD) register agrees, with a registered completion date of 30 December 2029 for project 3758. More on the offices, prices and payment plan is on the [Lumena by Omniyat](/projects/lumena-by-omniyat/) project page.

The tower is still at the preparatory stage. The DLD inspection of 25 March 2026 recorded 0%, the same as in May 2025. Omniyat's update of 30 August 2026 reported enabling works awarded, and the register's construction start is 31 December 2025, which leaves four years for a 260 metre tower.

## Lumena by Omniyat handover date by building

Omniyat now markets two towers under the Lumena name. This table covers both, though only Lumena has a published register entry with dates.

|---|---|---|---|
| Lumena (project 3758) | 0% (25 Mar 2026) | 30 Dec 2029 | Q4 2029 (Omniyat); Q4 2029 (Propsearch) |
| Lumena North | Not published | Not published | Test piling complete (Omniyat, 30 Aug 2026) |

## How the Lumena by Omniyat handover date has changed

| Date | Event | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 14 May 2025 | DLD inspection before launch records 0%. | DLD register via Continental Club |
| 18 Jun 2025 | Omniyat unveils Lumena; Propsearch records a target of Q3 2029. | Propsearch |
| 25 Aug 2025 | Omniyat announces a sell-out at AED 3.4 billion and gives completion in Q4 2029. | Omniyat |
| 31 Dec 2025 | Registered construction start. | DLD register via Mitchells |
| 16 Jan 2026 | Omniyat says enabling works, shoring, piling and excavation will advance in 2026. | Omniyat |
| 25 Mar 2026 | DLD inspection records 0%. | DLD register via Mitchells |
| 30 Aug 2026 | Enabling works awarded; RTA relocation works for the Metro Gold Line under way. | Al Masdar Al Aqaari |

The date moved by one quarter between launch and the sell-out announcement, and has stayed at Q4 2029 since.

## What the Lumena by Omniyat handover date means for payments

The launch plan was 5% on booking, 45% during construction and 50% on handover (Propsearch). On an office registered at AED 18.4 million on 18 September 2026, the handover payment would be about AED 9.2 million, due at the end of 2029 if the date holds. Since main works had not started by August 2026, the timing of the 45% construction stage matters as much as the final date.

## What to check before relying on the Lumena by Omniyat date

1. **Whether the SPA says Q3 or Q4 2029**, as early buyers may hold the launch target.
2. **Which tower the unit is in**, Lumena or Lumena North, since only Lumena has a published register date.
3. **The first DLD inspection above 0%**, which will show when main construction is under way.
4. **Any effect of the Metro Gold Line works** on site access and the programme.
