Indian buyers are flying to Dubai to purchase the iPhone 18 Pro, as the price gap between the UAE and India remains substantial even after adding flight and visa costs. In the UAE, the iPhone 18 Pro starts at Dh5,099 (₹1.32–1.33 lakh), while in India it is priced at ₹1,64,900. Shoppers report savings of ₹20,000 to ₹60,000, driven by lower UAE taxes and higher Indian import duties.
