When is the Palm Jebel Ali Frond P handover date?
Short answer

The registered date has held at 29 September 2027 in the records checked. The pace has not yet matched it. Frond P gained 7.98 points in the 96 days between the April and August 2026 inspections, about 2.5 points a month. Finishing the remaining 65.35 points by 29 September 2027 would need about 4.7 points a month. Nakheel’s phased start in late 2026 is for the island’s first villas, which may be on other fronds.
What the Palm Jebel Ali Frond P handover date means for payments
Frond P was sold on a 20/60/20 plan: 20% on booking, 60% during construction and 20% on handover (Property Finder; Continental Club). At the AED 18 million launch price, the handover payment is AED 3.6 million. That payment falls due when Nakheel issues the handover notice for the villa, so it moves if the frond finishes after 29 September 2027. No post-handover plan has been published for Frond P.
What to check before relying on the Palm Jebel Ali Frond P date
- The completion date in the SPA and its grace period, which may differ from the register’s 29 September 2027.
- The next DLD inspection for project 2590. A reading well above 34.65% in late 2026 would support the September 2027 date.
- Whether Nakheel names Frond P in its first handover phase. Its late 2026 start has so far been stated for the island, not for any frond.
- On a resale, how much of the 60% construction share is already paid, since the last 20% falls due at handover.

29 September 2027, the registered completion date on the DLD register (Continental Club, registry updated 25 Sep 2026). fäm Properties lists September 2027 and Property Finder lists Q3 2027. Nakheel has only said that the first villas on Palm Jebel Ali hand over from late 2026 through 2027.

No. It was 34.65% complete at the DLD inspection on 4 August 2026, the lowest of Fronds K to P in that round of inspections. Palm Observer found the same figure on the register on 3 September 2026.
Has the Frond P handover date been delayed?
The registered date has not moved in the records checked. Property Finder shows 29 September 2027 as the expected completion date, and the DLD register shows the same. The question is pace: Frond P gained 7.98 points between 30 April and 4 August 2026 and needs about 65 more points to finish.
Will Frond P be among the first fronds handed over?
Nakheel has not said. Its 20 August 2026 statement covers the first villas on the island without naming fronds. Frond P shares the earliest registered date, 29 September 2027, with Frond O, but Frond O was much further along at 55.70%.
