How does a Dubai eSIM work?

An eSIM is an embedded SIM card, and you probably already have an eSIM-compatible device. When you install an eSIM for a country or region, it lets your device connect to local networks in that area. This means your device will have data without needing Wi-Fi or paying roaming charges.

How much travel data do I need with my Dubai eSIM?

Your data needs in Dubai largely depend on your personal usage. If you anticipate being out and about often (and frequently using your phone), you can’t always count on Wi-Fi availability.

The great advantage of a Dubai eSIM is its flexible data plans. You can start with a smaller package and easily top up as needed.

Use our travel data calculator to estimate how much data you’ll need for your trip.

Will I pay roaming charges with a prepaid eSIM for the Dubai?

Not at all. A Dubai eSIM is an affordable option that helps you save on roaming charges. With a Dubai eSIM, you won’t pay any roaming charges because it connects you directly to a local network.

To avoid unexpected charges on your next bill, make sure you’ve turned off Data Roaming on your primary SIM. Using an eSIM for your Dubai trip can help you save money, and allow you to fully enjoy every moment without the worry of overspending on data.

FAQs about using a Dubai eSIM

Check my device

Most newer phones, tablets, and computers are already eSIM-compatible, so use our eSIM device checker to make sure you have a device that can accept an eSIM.

Free Wi-Fi is great when it’s available, safe, and working well, but some destinations make it just about impossible to get a good connection. Having data as a backup ensures you remain connected regardless of Wi-Fi availability.

We’re proud to provide aloSIM customers with fast eSIM data connections that allow them to talk, text, surf, and stream comfortably. You’ll likely experience a 4G (sometimes 5G) or LTE equivalent network in most locations, depending on what’s available in the area.

Installation guides

We have detailed eSIM installation instructions for all compatible devices, so whether you’re looking to add eSIM data to an iPhone or iPad, Google Pixel, Samsung Galaxy, or something else, we’ll be able to walk you through the eSIM set-up process easily.
