In the UAE, staying connected with loved ones and business partners abroad is not just a luxury—it’s a necessity. As a telecom strategist with over 12 years of experience, I’ve seen how DU’s international call offers empower individuals and businesses to communicate seamlessly across borders. Whether you’re an expat calling family in India or a business leader closing deals in the UK, DU’s affordable and flexible plans ensure you’re always connected.
In this guide, I’ll walk you through DU’s latest international call offers, share expert tips to maximize savings, and explain how these plans align with the UAE’s vision for a connected, future-ready economy.
Why DU is the Best Choice for International Calls
DU stands out as the UAE’s leading telecom provider, offering:
- Affordable Rates: Starting at just 32 fils/minute to 190+ destinations.
- Flexible Plans: Daily, weekly, and monthly packages for prepaid and postpaid users.

Whether you’re calling family in Pakistan, collaborating with clients in the US, or managing remote teams in the Philippines, DU ensures you stay connected without breaking the bank.
DU Prepaid vs. Postpaid: Which Plan is Right for You?
Choosing the right plan depends on your needs. Here’s a quick comparison:
| Feature | Prepaid Plans | Postpaid Plans |
| Best For | Tourists, short-term users | Businesses, long-term residents |
| International Rates | As low as 32 fils/min | Free minutes included in select plans |
| Flexibility | No contract, pay-as-you-go | 12-month contract with added perks |
| Additional Benefits | Free SIM + preloaded credit | Flexi minutes for local + international calls |
For businesses, I often recommend postpaid plans for their predictability and added features like unlimited local calls and data rollover. However, prepaid plans are ideal for startups or individuals who prefer flexibility.
