Tourist SIM cards are available at:
Airports: Both Dubai International Airport and Abu Dhabi International Airport have telecom counters in the arrivals area.
Official Stores: Etisalat and du stores are located in malls, metro stations, and major shopping areas.
Kiosks and Partner Retailers: Some convenience stores and electronics shops also sell SIM cards, though official outlets are recommended for authenticity.
