eSIMCard eSIM Data Plans for United Arab Emirates

eSIMCard does not provide a true unlimited data eSIM for the United Arab Emirates. All of its plans that carry “Unlimited” in the name actually limit high‑speed data to 1 GB per day (or 1 GB total for a single‑day plan) and reduce speed once the limit is reached—down to 500 kbps or 512 kbps, or to 2000 kbps after 2 GB.

For travelers who need larger data allowances, eSIMCard offers fixed‑data eSIMs such as a 50 GB plan valid for 60 days or a 100 GB plan valid for 180 days. These options provide unthrottled data without daily caps, and may represent a more cost‑effective choice for heavy data users.

eSIMCard does not provide eSIM plans for the United Arab Emirates that include a local phone number or SMS capability. The available offerings are data‑only plans, so travelers cannot receive or make calls through a traditional phone line or send text messages via the carrier.

For voice and messaging, users can rely on VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage, which operate over the data connection included in the eSIMCard plan.

eSIMCard has 35 single‑country plans and 49 multi‑country plans available for the United Arab Emirates. The plans cover a price range from about $4.38 to $478.46 and data caps that vary from 1 GB to 100 GB. In addition to the fixed data amount plans, there are daily data cap options – the daily plans let users pay a flat price but use the data on a day‑by‑day basis. The single‑country offerings focus on local usage in the UAE, while the multi‑country options include regional coverage in neighbouring Gulf states and beyond.
