Rating: 4.6 (21 reviews)

Stay connected in the futuristic hub of the Middle East, with plans starting from just $0.51. Choose from 15 limited and 16 unlimited data plans.

Welcome to the UAE! With a Cellesim UAE eSIM, you get instant, high-speed 5G internet the moment you land at Dubai (DXB) or Abu Dhabi (AUH) international airport.

Avoid Extreme Roaming Fees & Airport SIM Queues

It's perfect for a business trip, a luxury holiday, or even a short stopover.

From the Burj Khalifa to Desert Safaris

Whether you're ascending the Burj Khalifa, shopping at the Dubai Mall, attending a conference at the World Trade Centre, visiting the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, or enjoying a desert safari, a reliable 5G connection is essential. Activate in seconds via QR code.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got some questions before your Journey? Well here's everything you need to know before you go

Most modern phones do, but you must check our specific list here: eSIM Compatible Devices to be 100% sure before purchasing.

Yes. Careem and Uber are the primary ways to get around Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and reliable data is essential to book rides safely without cash.

Yes. Coverage is surprisingly good even at the "At the Top" observation decks of the Burj Khalifa, allowing you to livestream the view from the world's highest building.

Yes. The United Arab Emirates has one of the fastest mobile networks in the world, and our eSIM connects to high-speed 5G in downtown Dubai and Marina.

Yes. You will have excellent coverage throughout Abu Dhabi, including inside Ferrari World on Yas Island and at the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.

This is the most important question. Yes, the UAE government's regulations block all video and voice calls over IP (VoIP), which includes WhatsApp calls, FaceTime video/audio, and Messenger calls. However, our eSIM gives you high-speed data for everything else:

Text Messaging (WhatsApp, iMessage, Telegram) works perfectly.
Sending Voice Notes works perfectly.
Google Maps, Uber, Careem, and all navigation apps work.
Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and all social media browsing/posting work.

If you must make a voice/video call, you will need to use a VPN (which you should install before you arrive).

No, absolutely not. The UAE is NOT part of the EU, UK, or US domestic plans. Most home carriers (like AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, or UK's Vodafone/O2) will charge you their highest "Rest of World" international "Day Pass" rates (e.g., $10-$15 per day). A Cellesim eSIM is a one-time prepaid fee that is significantly cheaper.

This specific plan is valid only within the UAE. This is a critical point. If you are on a multi-country Gulf trip and drive to Oman or fly to Saudi Arabia/Qatar, your connection will stop at the border. For this, we highly recommend our Middle East Regional eSIM to stay connected seamlessly in all countries.

Yes, in key areas. Our eSIM connects to the premium networks (Du/Etisalat), which have excellent 4G/5G coverage that extends far from the cities. You will have a strong signal at all major desert safari camps (for uploading your sunset photos) and along the main highways. You may only lose signal temporarily if you drive into the deepest remote dunes, far from any roads.

Yes, 100% easier. Buying a physical "Tourist SIM" at Dubai (DXB) or Abu Dhabi (AUH) airport requires you to find the Du/Etisalat kiosk, wait in very long queues, and go through a mandatory passport and biometric (fingerprint/face scan) registration process. Our eSIM is 100% digital, requires no ID registration or biometrics, and can be installed before you fly. You will be connected the moment you land, ready to order an Uber.
