Before calculating the yearly cost, you need to understand the three tiers Netflix offers in the UAE. Prices were last updated in late 2023/early 2024 (price hikes may apply periodically). As of 2025, the standard rates are as follows:
| Plan | Monthly (AED) | Yearly Total (AED) | Yearly Total (USD approx.) | |------|--------------|--------------------|----------------------------| | Standard with Ads | 29 | 348 | $95 | | Basic (no ads) | 39 | 468 | $127 | | Standard (no ads) | 49 | 588 | $160 | | Premium (no ads) | 69 | 828 | $225 |
Even though no official yearly plan exists, you can lower your effective annual spend:
Subscribe for 3 months, then pause for 3 months. Watch Netflix in bursts. Example: 6 months of Premium (AED 414) instead of 12 months (AED 828).
However, when people search for "Netflix 1 year subscription price UAE," they usually want to know the total annual cost. To get this figure, you simply multiply the monthly price of your chosen plan by 12.
With that clarification in mind, let’s look at the breakdown of the costs for each tier available in the UAE as of 2024.
A: The prices listed (AED 29.99/49.99/69.99) are inclusive of the UAE's 5% VAT. The final charge on your credit card is exactly as shown.
| Plan | Monthly (AED) | Yearly Cost (AED) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Standard with Ads | 29.99 | 359.88 | | Standard (No Ads) | 49.99 | 599.88 | | Premium | 69.99 | 839.88 |
AED 39 × 12 = AED 468 per year (approx. USD 127)
