Good to know in the UAE
- Most buildings are wired for only one fibre network, e& or du. Check which before you sign a lease. 5G home wireless works almost anywhere.
- You need an Emirates ID (so a residence visa) and usually a tenancy contract; du typically asks for your Ejari registration.
- Fibre contracts are usually 12–24 months. Leaving early costs one month's rent (capped at AED 1,000) plus any equipment balance.
- Installation is often within 24 hours. Online orders usually get the setup fee waived.

How this calculator works
- Tell it how many people live with you and how you use the internet: it suggests the speed you need
- Choose a contract length and which network your building is wired for
- It works out what each plan really costs over 12 or 24 months, including set-up fees and any cheap first months, and puts the cheapest plan that’s fast enough first
- Every plan links to the provider’s own page, with the date we checked the price
It runs in your browser. Nothing you enter is sent to us unless you ask us to email you the results, and we don’t keep it. Results are estimates, not a quote or financial advice: check the official sources linked in each guide before you rely on them.
