Etisalat Emirates ID Update

How can I update my emirates ID on Etisalat? The TDRA (Telecommunications Regulatory Authority) has introduced a regulation that requires you to update the registration of all your Etisalat mobile numbers by updating your profiles with valid and current identification details.

This means that Etisalat customers need to renew their Etisalat mobile number (SIM) by adding all the necessary details to their personal information. Then, their mobile account needs to be re-registered. If the registration fails, the number can be deactivated.

The procedure is not difficult, but you might appreciate our step by step guide.
