Etisalat eSIM for travelers
Our travel eSIM plans for United Arab Emirates connect to the Etisalat network. If you searched for an eSIM for Etisalat coverage on a trip, this page explains exactly what we sell and where it works.
We are not Etisalat
eSIMion is not Etisalat, and we do not sell Etisalat SIM cards, Etisalat plans, or Etisalat top-ups. If you are a Etisalat customer looking for your own account, contact Etisalat directly.
What we sell is a prepaid travel eSIM. In United Arab Emirates, that eSIM connects to the Etisalat network for data. You get local coverage without a Etisalat contract, a store visit, or a local sign-up.
How a travel eSIM on the Etisalat network works
You buy the plan before your trip and it arrives by email with a tap-to-install link and a QR code. When you land, your phone connects to Etisalat's towers and data works. Your home SIM stays in place and your number does not change.
Where Etisalat has built out 5G, you get 5G on supported plans. Elsewhere you get 4G, which is fine for maps, messaging, and video calls.
The plan is data only. It does not come with a local phone number, so calls and texts to your regular number still arrive through your home SIM.
