Bought the wrong plan? An unused, never-activated eSIM can be refunded in full within 30 days of purchase. See our refund policy for the full terms.
Fixed data plans give you a set amount of data, for example 1 GB or 5 GB, to use at full speed for the whole plan period. When it runs out, you top up or buy again. Pick this if you know roughly how much you'll use.
Unlimited plans have no total data cap for the plan period, but each day includes a high-speed allowance. Once you use that day's allowance, you carry on at a reduced speed. Reduced-speed data has a daily limit too, and if you reach it, data pauses until the allowance resets 24 hours after you activate the eSIM. Pick this for heavier or less predictable use. A fair-use policy applies.
Pay As You Go is not a plan at all. You add credit once and it comes off by the megabyte at the local rate as you use it, so you never pay for data you do not finish. Credit never expires, data pauses when the balance hits zero, and the same eSIM keeps working across every country we cover. It costs more per gigabyte than a plan, so pick this for light or hard to predict use rather than heavy days.

The UAE's mobile networks are e& (formerly Etisalat) and du, the two operators the UAE government lists as licensed for landline, mobile and internet services.
Voice and video calls over the internet are a regulated telecom service here. The regulator TDRA says only apps provided by a licensee or approved by TDRA may be used for them, and operators are required to block unlicensed calling services. Plan on messaging rather than internet calls, or check TDRA's list of approved apps.
Numbers from the UAE government.
Great 5G around the city. Just remember WhatsApp calls are limited in the UAE.
Regional & global eSIMs that also cover the United Arab Emirates on one plan.
Pick a row, watch the phone.
Everything you need to know before you buy.
Your United Arab Emirates eSIM connects automatically to e& (Etisalat) and du, switching to the strongest available signal. Both networks deliver fast 5G across Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Fast 5G everywhere, but WhatsApp and FaceTime calling are restricted. What that means for a travel eSIM, plus a realistic data budget for the UAE.

Great coverage on the coast and in Istanbul, thinner inland, plus why a travel eSIM sidesteps Turkey's famous phone-registration rule.

Muscat and Salalah run fast networks, the desert and mountain interior much less so. What a travel eSIM gets you in Oman, and how much data a loop needs.
