Dubai eSIM prices

Data plans
Pick the bundle that matches the trip. Validity starts the first time the eSIM connects to a network in the UAE, not on the day you pay for it.
| Data | Validity | Price | Price per GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 7 days | $5.99 | $5.99/GB |
| 3 GB | 30 days | $15.99 | $5.33/GB |
| 5 GB | 30 days | $26.99 | $5.40/GB |
| 10 GB | 30 days | $40.99 | $4.10/GB |

| 50 GB | 30 days | $120.99 | $2.42/GB Best value |
Unlimited plans
Unlimited plans have no total cap, and they are sold in short lengths because most trips to Dubai are short. After 3 GB at full speed in one day the speed is reduced for the rest of that day, then resets the next day.
| Validity | Price |
|---|---|
| 3 days | $34.99 |
| 5 days | $49.99 |
| 7 days | $57.99 |
| 10 days | $67.99 |
| 15 days | $91.99 |

Pricing questions
How much does an eSIM for Dubai cost?
Plans start at $5.99 for 1 GB valid 7 days. A four- or five-day trip with hotel Wi-Fi in the evenings usually lands between 3 and 5 GB, around $26.99. Unlimited plans start at $34.99.
Is an eSIM cheaper than roaming in the UAE?
For most travelers, clearly. The UAE sits outside every roam-like-at-home arrangement, so it is usually priced at your carrier's highest daily or per-megabyte rate — look up that rate for the UAE before you fly and compare it with a plan here. A 10 GB plan valid 30 days costs $40.99 in total.
Are there hidden fees?
No. The price shown is the whole price: no activation fee, no deposit, no monthly charge and no automatic renewal. The app is free, and plans simply expire.
Which plan should I choose?
A long layover or a weekend on hotel Wi-Fi rarely passes 1 to 3 GB — maps, ride-hailing, messages, a few photos out. Take 10 GB or more if you work from the phone or share a hotspot, and take an unlimited plan if you would rather not think about it at all.
