Calling the UAE: numbers to know
- Mobile numbers start with 05 locally, for example 050, 052, 054, 055, 056 or 058. Drop the 0, so 050 123 4567 becomes +971 50 123 4567.
- Landlines use area codes such as 04 for Dubai, 02 for Abu Dhabi and 06 for Sharjah. These become +971 4, +971 2 and +971 6.
- 800 toll-free numbers usually only work from inside the UAE. Banks and airlines normally list a separate +971 number for overseas callers.
The UAE is on Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4) all year. The working week runs Monday to Friday, with many government offices closing early on Friday.
Why a normal phone call is often easier
WhatsApp and FaceTime voice calls have long been restricted on UAE networks, so app calls to someone in the UAE don’t always connect. A regular call to their mobile or landline always rings through.
- Google Voice lists the UAE at $0.14 per minute (published rate, checked October 2026), but only for US account holders.
- 002Call costs $0.21 per minute to UAE landlines and $0.21 per minute to mobiles, from a browser anywhere.
