Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about this eSIM plan.

Daily plans give you a set data allowance per day - great for flexible itineraries where your usage varies. Total plans provide a fixed data pool to use across your entire trip at your own pace. Unlimited* plans offer the most freedom for heavy users, hotspot sharers, or remote workers - though speeds may be reduced after reaching a certain usage threshold. 
If you're unsure, our support team can help you pick the right plan based on your trip length and usage habits.
Install your UAE eSIM the evening before your trip. Validity starts from the moment of installation — not from purchase and not from first data use. Installing the night before means your plan is live and ready the moment you land at Dubai International or Abu Dhabi Airport.
Validity starts from the moment you install the eSIM — not when you purchase it. You can buy well in advance without losing any days. Just hold off on installation until the evening before your departure.
Always purchase at least one extra day beyond your planned stay to account for flight delays, extended layovers, or last-minute itinerary changes. The extra day is a small cost for total peace of mind throughout your trip.
Your UAE eSIM by Teclapi runs on du — the UAE's second-largest mobile operator with 9.7 million subscribers, 99% 5G population coverage across all seven emirates, and a network availability score of 99.4% — the highest of any UAE carrier. For travelers, du's near-perfect availability means your connection is reliable across hotels, malls, tourist sites, and transport links throughout the country.
Yes. du covers all seven emirates — Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain. du's 5G network is available in 95% of populated areas across the UAE, with excellent coverage in major cities and expanding coverage in less populated regions.
Excellent speeds throughout. du's 5G network delivers average speeds exceeding 1.2 Gbps in major urban areas, with peak speeds of up to 3 Gbps in prime locations. Even on 4G LTE, speeds are consistently fast across all tourist destinations. For everyday tasks — navigation, streaming, video messaging, and booking apps — your connection performs at the highest standard.
No — this plan covers the UAE only. If you're planning to visit other Gulf destinations, you'll need a separate plan for those countries. Check out our other Teclapi eSIM plans for your next destination.
The majority of travel and social apps work perfectly — including Google Maps, Careem, WhatsApp (messaging, photos, voice notes), Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Agoda, Booking.com, Klook, and more. 
However, TikTok and most AI-powered applications (including ChatGPT, Gemini, and similar tools) are not supported on this plan.
Partially. WhatsApp text messaging, photo sharing, and voice messages work normally in the UAE. However, WhatsApp voice and video calls are blocked on all UAE networks — including du, e& (Etisalat), hotel Wi-Fi, and airport Wi-Fi. This is a country-level regulation enforced by the UAE's Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA), not a limitation of our eSIM specifically.
No. FaceTime, Facebook Messenger calls, and most other VoIP voice and video calling apps are blocked under UAE regulations. This applies to all travelers regardless of which network or eSIM they use. 
Our tips: For video calls, Zoom and Google Meet work normally for scheduled meetings, which is the best alternative for staying in touch with family or colleagues.
No — this is a data-only eSIM for the UAE. It does not include a local UAE number. For messaging, WhatsApp text and media work normally. For voice calls, keep your home SIM active on dual SIM for direct calls.
