United Arab Emirates eSIM — common questions

How quickly do I get my United Arab Emirates eSIM?

Immediately. The profile is issued as soon as payment clears and appears on your order page with a QR code — usually within a few seconds.

When does the plan start counting down in United Arab Emirates?

On the first connection to a network in United Arab Emirates, not at purchase. Install it before you fly and the validity still starts when you arrive.

Will I keep my own number in United Arab Emirates?

Yes. The eSIM is a separate data-only line, so your usual SIM keeps handling calls, SMS and WhatsApp. Switch off data roaming on that line to avoid your home operator's charges.
