Free Sim for tourists at Dubai airport

Under a new initiative “Connect with happiness”, Dubai tourists will be given free Du sim card at the Dubai International Airport. This is a result of an effort to provide better comfort to visitors who come to explore Dubai. The card is issued free of cost with 3 minutes talk time and 20mb worth of data.

The user can activate the card by dialing *122#, and the card automatically deactivates when the passenger exits the airport. Apparently there is a tie up between the Dubai immigrations and Du, that the free sim will be deactivated when the passenger exits UAE.

This card can be collected from the Arrival – Passport controller’s office at Dubai airport. The card can be recharged/upgraded by adding currency with Du app or at any store. The tourist should produce their passport and visa to get Free Du sim at the airport. Any tourist, who is 18 years old or above is eligible to avail this facility.
