The UAE is four hours ahead of UTC (Co-ordinated Universal Time - formerly known as GMT) and there is no daylight saving. Hence, when it is 12.00 midday in Abu Dhabi, it is 3 am in New York, 8 am in London, 10 am in Johannesburg, 1.30pm in New Delhi, and 6 pm in Sydney (not allowing for any summertime saving in those countries).

UAE’s electricity supply is 220/240 volts at 50 Hz. Square three-pin sockets are standard. It is advisable to bring a plug adapter with you, though most hotels can supply adapters for other kinds of plug and they can be bought locally.

Most of UAE's five-star hotels, malls and heritage attractions have wheelchair facilities. Wheelchair ramps often have steep angles. All International Airports are well equipped for physically challenged travellers. There is a special check-in gate with direct access from the car park, as well as dedicated lifts, and a meet and assist service.

UAE has a very family-friendly environment. Baby changing rooms, play areas and kids facilities are commonplace in malls and hotels alike; most hotels have paid child care services. Kids’ menus, high chairs and play areas are common in most restaurants.

Most hotels offer complimentary internet access to their guests or paid access to non-guests. There is a growing number of establishments outside of hotels - such as coffee shops and restaurants - that also offer wireless Internet access. Visitors who don’t have their own laptop can drop by Internet cafés in malls and along most busy streets.

The local currency is the UAE dirham (AED or Dhs) which is divided into 100 fils and is pegged against the US $ (US$ 1: AED 3.6725).

Most shops, hotels and restaurants in UAE accept major credit and debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, etc.). It is prudent to confirm acceptance of credit card or debit card payments with the staff especially if there is no visible signage indicating acceptance of credit card payment at the store premises or the till/counter.

Weekend in UAE is Friday and Saturday, and the first day back to work (for most companies) is Sunday. There are, however, certain offices that remain open on Saturday too.

While normal tourist photography is acceptable, it is polite to ask permission before taking photos of people, particularly women. Photographs of a government building, military installations and ports and airports should not be taken. Also, cameras may be banned in public areas designated for women and children only.

UAE nationals usually wear traditional dress in public. For men, this is the kandura - a white full-length shirt-like garment, which is worn with a white or red checkered headdress, known as a ghutra. This is secured with a black cord (agal). Sheikhs and important businessmen may also wear a thin, gold-trimmed robe (bisht) over their kandura at important events. In public, Emirati women wear a long, loose black robe (abaya) that covers their normal clothes - plus a headscarf (Sheyla). The abaya is often of very sheer, flowing fabric with intricate embroidery and beadwork along the wrists and hemline. Sheylas are also becoming more elaborate and a statement of individuality, particularly among the young. Headwear varies with some women wearing a thin black veil covering their face and others, generally older women, wearing a leather veil (burka), which covers the nose, brow, cheekbones and lips.

Although Arabic is the official language in the UAE, English is widely spoken. Most business transactions in the UAE are conducted in English.
