Construction Snapshot
The Archive at a Glance
The Archive by Imtiaz is a 310-residence apartment building in Dubai Land Residence Complex that the developer's floor plans lay out as two connected wings around a podium pool deck, with handover targeted by Imtiaz for Q3 2028. Its register record is still short: a construction start of 01 October 2025, project registration on 02 March 2026, and one dated reading, 2.96% on 29 June 2026, taken while the plot was in enabling works. The cards below are the DLD anchors every later reading on this page will be measured from.

Inspection Record
The Archive Construction Update Timeline
One dated figure makes up this record so far: 2.96%, entered on the DLD register on 29 June 2026, the same day RERA's progress report found enabling works progressing on the Archive plot. The register's inspection card also lists a previous value of 0% with no date, which the track below shows as an unlabelled baseline at its left edge rather than as a reading, and the single table row links the June 2026 update where both are read in full.

Pace Analysis
How Fast The Archive Has Been Built
With a single dated reading and an undated 0% baseline, The Archive has no inspection-to-inspection pace yet. What the register dates do support is two averages, both arithmetic, not a forecast:
- 01 Oct 2025 to 29 Jun 2026: enabling works, registered start to 2.96% over 271 daysAbout 0.33 points per month
- 29 Jun 2026 to 30 Dec 2028: the remaining 97.04 points to the registered completion date over 915 daysAbout 3.18 points per month
There is no curve to read yet, and that is the finding. A figure of 2.96% at 29 June 2026, 271 days after the registered start, belongs to a plot still in enabling works, where register readings move only a little before main building works begin, so a low whole-build average is normal at this stage. The 3.18 figure is simply what the remaining 97.04 points would average to reach 100% by the 30 December 2028 registered completion date (arithmetic, not a forecast); Imtiaz targets handover in Q3 2028, earlier than that register date, which serves as the regulatory completion deadline. For an end user, the next dated readings show when work moves past enabling; for an investor, the span between two dated readings will give The Archive its first measured pace.

About The Archive at Dubai Land Residence Complex
A 2.96% register figure dated 29 June 2026 only means something next to the building it measures. The project guide covers the residences, library and rooftop that this record is tracking toward:

The Archive Build Stages, Mapped to the Inspections
Only the first two stages below carry register evidence for The Archive: the recorded start of 01 October 2025 and the enabling works reading of 2.96% on 29 June 2026. The three after them are the stages the coming readings will fill in, each left undated until a register entry records it.
Construction Start on the Register
The register gives 01 October 2025 as the construction start for project 3781, with DLD registration following on 02 March 2026, both as recorded.
Enabling Works Recorded
The RERA progress report of 29 June 2026 records enabling works progressing on the plot, and the register reads 2.96% the same day, the only dated figure so far.
Main Building Works
The two connected residential wings and the podium pool deck in the developer's floor plans are what the next register readings will begin to measure.
Facade, Fit-Out, and Amenity Levels
Envelope, apartment interiors, and the amenity spaces the developer describes, from the ground-level garden and library to the rooftop pools.
Finishing, Commissioning, and Handover
Closing readings toward 100%, measured against Imtiaz's Q3 2028 handover target and the registered completion date of 30 December 2028.
What each construction stage involves in general is covered once in the guides on the Dubai Construction Updates hub, so this page stays focused on The Archive's own record.

Between 2.96% and Handover: What The Archive Buyers Should Do Now
At 2.96% on 29 June 2026 the Archive plot was still in enabling works, and the developer's primary plan asks for money on dates rather than on construction stages: 20% at booking, then the next 5% on 15 November 2026 and 30% more across six dated instalments to 1 July 2028 before 50% on completion. That calendar, not the site, sets the timing here, so the three steps below belong before the 15 November 2026 instalment, not after it.
First, confirm that every instalment goes to the escrow account registered for project 3781 with Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank; The Archive by Imtiaz escrow account page sets out how to check it against the DLD record before you transfer.
Second, if UAE residency is part of the plan, settle it before you commit: every listed home type is priced below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, and The Archive by Imtiaz Golden Visa threshold guide explains what that means for a single unit and which other routes exist.
Third, read The Archive by Imtiaz layouts and payment plan against your own dates; the developer publishes its instalment dates as indicative, so check that your SPA fixes each one and plan your budget around that schedule rather than the pace of the site.
Send me your unit number on WhatsApp and I will tell you what the latest inspection means for your handover and map the sequence for your specific unit.

FAQs
The Archive Construction Updates Frequently Asked Questions
The Archive by Imtiaz, DLD project 3781, is an active project at the enabling works stage, with a DLD register reading of 2.96% dated 29 June 2026. The RERA progress report of the same date lists its status as Enabling Works, Progressing, and the dated record is laid out in the inspection timeline above.
The latest dated reading for The Archive is 2.96% on 29 June 2026, a move of 2.96 points from a previous value of 0% that the register shows without a date, so no time span or monthly pace can be attached to that change. The register entry and the RERA report notes for that day are read in full in the The Archive by Imtiaz June 2026 construction update.
Imtiaz targets handover of The Archive in Q3 2028, while the DLD register carries a registered completion date of 30 December 2028 for project 3781. The register date sits after the developer's target and works as the regulatory completion deadline rather than a forecast; with the record at 2.96% on 29 June 2026, neither date has yet been measured against main building works, and this page's record is updated as each new reading is entered.
The Archive by Imtiaz holds 310 residences, studio to three bedroom apartments, which the developer's floor plans arrange in two connected residential wings around a podium pool deck. The 29 June 2026 register reading of 2.96% covers enabling works on that plot only; layouts, sizes and the amenity floors are set out in the The Archive by Imtiaz project guide.
The DLD register records construction at The Archive as starting on 01 October 2025, with project registration dated 02 March 2026, both exactly as recorded. From that start to the registered completion date of 30 December 2028 the window runs 1,186 days, roughly 39 months, and the first dated reading, 2.96% on 29 June 2026, arrived 271 days into it.
Counted from the 01 October 2025 start, the 2.96% recorded on 29 June 2026 averages about 0.33 points per month over 271 days, arithmetic rather than a forecast, and a low whole-build average is normal while a site is in enabling works. Reaching 100% by the 30 December 2028 registered completion date would take the remaining 97.04 points at about 3.18 points per month over 915 days, as set out in the pace analysis above.
