Starlink 'sells like hotcakes' in the UAE: How to get it, what it costs, where it works

## Starlink's Expansion in the UAE

Starlink, SpaceX's satellite internet service, has been officially launched for consumer use in the UAE. The service, which aims to provide high-speed internet to remote and underserved areas, has quickly gained popularity, with reports indicating high demand in cities like Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

## Licensing and Availability

The UAE's Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority granted Starlink a 10-year license to operate a public satellite communications network. This allows Starlink to offer broadband services to consumers, businesses, and government entities, as well as provide connectivity for maritime and aviation sectors.

## Pricing and Plans

Starlink's residential plans in the UAE start at Dh300 per month, with a "Residential Lite" option available for Dh230. Roaming services are priced at Dh190 for a 100GB data cap and Dh370 for unlimited data. The standard hardware kit costs Dh1,465.

## Ordering Process

Residents interested in Starlink should use the official ordering portal to check service availability at their address. Due to high demand, some areas may require a deposit to join a waitlist.

## Considerations for Users

Before purchasing, residents should ensure their location has a clear view of the sky for optimal service. Additionally, they should verify building regulations if they live in apartments. Starlink may be more suitable as a backup internet option in urban areas where fibre is already available.

## Broader Impact

The introduction of Starlink in the UAE is part of a broader strategy to enhance the country's digital infrastructure, supporting its ambitions to become a regional telecommunications hub.
