Communications in the UAE
Telephone
Telephone calls within each Emirate are free.
ETISALAT offers local customers pre-paid phone cards that can be charged to local accounts. BT offers a service to customers where they can be directly connected to a BT operator, therefore bypassing the local operator. Local currency is not needed as calls can be charged to a BT charge card or a reverse charge call can be made. Customers can use this service from any telephone in the UAE.

Voice over Internet Protocol
VoIP is a new technology which allows users to verbally communicate through their computer. Essentially a telephone call made using the internet, VoIP is becoming increasingly more common in the business world due to its low costs, and easy set-up and maintenance.
Forget installation engineers and phone number changes, as long as you have a broadband connection, you can use VoIP any time, any where.
For businesses, this software is sure to eventually phase out the traditional phonecall. For as low as 4p for local and national calls, the economical potential is vast. With international calls often even less than that, VoIP is perfect if you are prone to long-distance telecommunication, or have offices, clients, partners, etc, overseas. What's more, calls made between VoIP users are typically free all you pay for is the standard internet service.
Post
Emirates Post has evolved into a efficient postal organisation which offers high-quality services to the public and the corporate sector.
Internet
Generally, only the largest businesses have utilised the internet by creating websites. ETISALAT (Emirates Telecommunications Corporation) is the only internet service provider.
