Got questions?

Can I use my local minutes abroad with the Roaming Pass?

The Roaming Pass allows you to use your international minutes and data when abroad, while your local minutes can only be used within the UAE.

If you have international minutes in your plan, you can make and receive calls while roaming. If you don't have international minutes, you can purchase an international minutes booster after activating the Roaming Pass.

Are there restrictions for when I can buy or use Roam Like Home?

Pay As You Go customers cannot purchase Roaming Passes.

If you’re not a Pay As You Go customer, you need to be on a plan worth AED 79+ to buy a Roaming Pass.

Promotional and shared data or minutes aren't included in the Roaming Pass.

E.g. If someone shares data with you, you can't use it abroad. If you get free data added to your plan as part of a promotion, you can't use it abroad either.

What should I do if my plan runs out whilst abroad?

Same as at home! Just purchase a Booster for data/minutes and you're good to go!

Or, you could purchase a Roaming Pack instead as well.

Got questions?

I’ve used up all my roaming calls/data. Can I get more?​

If you run out of roaming calls or data, you can purchase a new plan at any time for the same or different region. Your new roaming plan will automatically start once your current plan expires or once you use up your minutes/data, whichever comes first.​
