Using mobile data in Yemen: local tips
- Connections can drop without warning. Frequent power and fuel shortages can disrupt telecommunications and internet access. Keep devices charged, carry a power bank and save key contacts and documents offline.
- Carry US dollars. There are few ATMs outside Sana’a, and US dollars in cash are the easiest currency to exchange.
- Police numbers. Dial 199 or 194 for police, but emergency services have severely limited capacity, so keep your accommodation’s and local contacts’ numbers saved too.
