Have you recently relocated to Dubai and want to connect to the internet at home? Or do you need to switch to a different service provider and change your package? Here's a rundown of the various home internet packages in Dubai so you can pick the one that best suits your needs and budget. 

Dubai Internet Packages for Residential Users 

When it comes to selecting Dubai internet packages for home use, residents can look into the plans provided by two popular service providers: Etisalat and du. Etisalat home internet packages range from Al Shamil broadband to the eLife internet package, which includes a landline and TV in addition to the internet. Similarly, du home internet plans range from Talk and Surf to Talk, Surf, and Watch. To sign up for Dubai best internet packages, simply go to your nearest Etisalat or du service centre. To apply for home internet packages, you must be a Dubai resident and the process can take up to a week. Subscribers must be 21 or older to take advantage of du home internet offers. Younger customers can present a NOC from someone over the age of 21 who agrees to be responsible for your internet account. 

In Dubai, Signing Up For Internet Services 

You must visit a service centre to fill out an application form for Etisalat internet packages, or you can simply download it from the official website. Go to the 'Support' page, then to the 'Personal' tab to find online application forms for setting up a home internet connection. Similarly, for du packages, you can either visit a service centre or subscribe online. You must first choose your location and package, after which you must complete an online form. The following documents are required to subscribe to Etisalat and du net packages:

• Valid residency visa in the UAE
• Emirates Identification

You must also provide copies of your residency visa and Emirates ID. You will also need your Ejari tenancy contract or title deed, which includes your name and address, in the case of Du. If you are not receiving the subscription in your name, you must obtain an authorization letter from the person who is purchasing the subscription, as well as their Emirates ID. You can expect your home internet connection to be operational within seven days after submitting these documents and paying the installation fees at the service centre. 

Dubai Home Internet Prices 

In Dubai, a basic home internet package can cost up to AED 300 per month. If you want 500 Mbps download speeds, you must subscribe to a premium package, which can cost up to AED 1,000. Broadband connections or a combination of internet and television services are available. Home internet package prices can also help you calculate the cost of living in Dubai.

How to Cancel Your Dubai Internet Connection 

You may want to cancel your internet service or reduce your package size. In either case, you can cancel your internet service and pay the exit fees by calling or visiting your internet provider's service centre. You must provide a one-month notice for Etisalat packages.
