Yellow Pages for Dubai and UAE
The Dubai Yellow Pages is a fascinating read with well-rounded characters and a gripping plot line ...
You may not believe that but the Yellow Pages really do exist and are available to all Etisalat subscribers each year when published. Just stroll along to any Etisalat office and collect your copy of the Yellow Pages (you might have to show a phone bill and Emirates ID). You can also get the White Pages and Mobile Phone Pages while you're at it. And then have hours of fun trying to find your own name in there somewhere. Try under Baul if your first name is Paul.
Many years ago, physical copies of the Yellow Pages were occasionally delivered to residents in the UAE but there was no obvious pattern to explain why or when they were delivered. We don't remember the last time we saw a book delivered anywhere so it seems safe to assume they are no longer delivered.
Du Telecom also publishes, or published, their own Yellow Pages. But we struggle to find or use their online version so perhaps the offline version also has limited availability.
Online Yellow Pages UAE
- www.yellowpages.ae is the official online version from Etisalat, allows you to look up companies across the UAE in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Al Ain, Fujairah (Fujeirah), Umm Al Quwain and Ras Al Khaimah as well as Dubai (the print versions are different for each emirate). Search by number, name, PO Box, or address. Online Yellow Pages have some company listings with website URL, information about the company, link to send them email via a form, and a map link (that doesn't seem to work). And of course addresses and tel numbers.
How to list your company or business in the yellow pages?
- The simplest, and in our opinion, the only way you should really consider if all you want is to make sure your company is registered in the yellow pages, is to submit the relevant information online at Etisalat's YP website:
- www.yellowpages.ae/list-your-business.html (valid when last checked Oct 2019).
- Listing is free.
- If you want some sort of highlighted listing in the Yellow Pages, Etisalat will happily take some money from you to do that.

Redundant or expired yellow pages websites
- [Offline?] www.duyellowpages.ae - Official (?) Du Telecom UAE yellow pages website, published by Zoser AG, a Swiss GIS company (Mar 2019)? Registered or parking page Jan 2011 but no website ever loaded?
- [Offline?] www.dusuperpages.ae - also for Du Yellow Pages? Domain registered but website never online?
Copied Yellow Pages websites - these are mostly no more useful than the original sites, and often less useful as listings go out of date and become incorrect because databases are not maintained.
- www.yellowpages-uae.com - was the online version of Du Yellow Pages (publishers Lunad Media & Communication). Taken over or rebranded or something, is still a YP site but does not appear to have an official connection to Du.
- yp.theemiratesnetwork.com - TEN (The Emirates Network) UAE Yellow Pages - useful detail with Google Maps, appears to be copied from the Etisalat YP but with a different layout, and not updated so increasing number of listings will become obsolete or incorrect.
- www.gulfyp.com - B2B yellow pages?
- www.uaeyellowpagesonline.com - unofficial UAE yellow pages, similar to www.abudhabiyellowpagesonline.com, www.dubaiyellowpagesonline.com, www.sharjahyellowpagesonline.com. No obvious improvement compared to Etisalat or Du YP websites.
