Sell your car in Dubai
We handle all the practicalities. No warranty liability for you, and you get more than with a trade-in.
How it works

- Agreement: you decide the minimum price.
- Safe settlement: money straight to your account on sale.
Consignment, dealer trade-in or private sale in Dubai
| Dealer trade-in | Private sale | Consignment with SellCarEasy | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who finds the buyer | Nobody — the dealer buys the car itself | You do | SellCarEasy does |
| Who handles the paperwork and transfer | The dealer | You do | SellCarEasy does |
| Do you keep using the car meanwhile | No — you hand it over at the sale | Yes | Yes, it stays with you until it sells |
| Who sets the lowest acceptable price | The dealer offers, you accept or decline | You do | You do |
| Cost if the car does not sell | Not applicable — the dealer has bought it | None | None. Commission is charged only on a completed sale |
| Warranty liability after the sale | The dealer | Can rest with you as the seller | SellCarEasy takes it over |
A trade-in is the quickest route if you need the car gone. A private sale avoids commission entirely, but the advertising, the buyers and the transfer are yours to manage, and the liability can follow you afterwards. Consignment sits between the two.

Frequently asked questions
What is car consignment (commission sale) in Dubai?
Car consignment, also called commission sale, means SellCarEasy in Dubai sells your car on your behalf. You set the minimum price you will accept, and SellCarEasy handles the photography, advertising, buyer contact and paperwork. You only pay commission if the car actually sells.
What does it cost to sell a car on consignment with SellCarEasy?
SellCarEasy only charges commission on a completed sale. There are no upfront costs, and you pay nothing if the car does not sell. Contact SellCarEasy in Dubai for the commission details for your car.
How long does it take to sell a car on consignment in Dubai?
Most cars sell within 2-4 weeks. Popular models can go faster, while niche models may take longer. SellCarEasy keeps you updated throughout.
Who carries the warranty liability in a consignment sale?
In a consignment sale through SellCarEasy, SellCarEasy takes over the warranty liability. That is a difference from a private sale in the UAE, where you as the seller can be held liable after the car changes hands.
Do I have to leave my car at SellCarEasy while it is for sale?
No. The car stays with you and you can keep driving it while it is advertised. SellCarEasy arranges viewings at times that suit you, and the car changes hands only when the sale is completed.
How is my car priced for a consignment sale?
SellCarEasy gives you a market-based valuation from the car's condition, mileage and the Dubai market. You then decide the minimum price you are willing to accept.
Can I sell my car on consignment if I am an expat leaving the UAE?
Expats leaving the UAE are a common reason people sell. With consignment the car stays with you and there is no upfront cost, so listing it early costs you nothing. Timing depends on your departure date and on whether the car has finance outstanding, so contact SellCarEasy in Dubai to check what is possible in your case.
How is consignment different from selling to a dealer or privately in Dubai?
Selling to a dealer in Dubai is fast but the dealer buys at a trade price. Selling privately means you handle the advertising, the viewings, the buyer and the transfer yourself. Consignment through SellCarEasy sits between the two: your car is marketed for a retail buyer while SellCarEasy handles the buyers and the paperwork, and you keep the car until it sells.
