eSIM on du: setup in five minutes
Steps
- Check the handset supports eSIM and is not carrier-locked.
- In the du app, choose line > switch to eSIM (or buy an eSIM plan for a visitor).
- Scan the QR in Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM; label the line (Work/Home).
- Keep the old line active for the first hour in case activation needs a retry, then delete the old profile.
- For travel, add the roaming or destination data pack before you fly, not at the gate.

Activating a new du SIM or line
Steps
- Register with Emirates ID (residents) or passport (visitors) at a store, kiosk or through the app.
- Insert the SIM, restart the phone, wait for the network SMS - that is the activation signal.
- For a postpaid number transfer, complete the port request with the losing operator details.
- If the phone shows "no service", test the SIM in another handset to separate device from line.

Switching a business line from Etisalat to du with the same landline number - what 3 months free really saves
Steps
- Check the landline number and account-name match on the Etisalat bill - the port request must carry identical details.
- Tell the account manager explicitly: migration with number retention, not a new installation - a new install defaults to promo pricing and loses the waiver question entirely.
- Ask for both totals written on the proposal: discounted-12-month vs waiver-12-month, and tick the cheaper one.
- Keep the Etisalat service live until the agreed port date so the internet does not dip during cutover.
- If Etisalat is still inside its minimum term, read their cancellation terms before scheduling.

Where a number depends on your address, your wall box or your contract start, the page says a quote is needed instead of estimating it. Nothing on this page is scraped from an aggregator or copied from another comparison site. Applied to Etisalat nano sim replacement explained properly.
