Overview
Answer five questions and this website cost calculator shows where your brief falls, Arabic and Telr or Tabby included. They are the questions I ask before I put a price in writing. I'm Ashish Sharma; I founded Codingclave in Lucknow, India, in 2017.

Quick answer
How does this calculator turn five answers into a Dubai website price?
From AED 2,200 for a five-page English WordPress site to AED 49,000 at the top of the store band, excluding VAT. Your site type picks one of three published bands. Page or product count, theme or custom design, Arabic and the outside systems you connect then place you in a slice one-fifth of that band wide, never outside it. It is an estimate; I fix the price in writing after we talk.
- Smallest result: a 5-page English WordPress site, AED 2,200–4,000 ex VAT
- A bilingual 6–12 page site with one gateway: AED 7,600–10,500
- Prices checked 12 Oct 2026

An estimate, not a quote. It sits inside our published band for a business website (AED 2,900 to AED 17,000). Ashish fixes the price in writing after a short call about your scope.

How to answer each question honestly
What are you building?
WordPress if your staff will edit pages, business website for a company site on Next.js or WordPress, store if customers pay online. Torn between the first two? Read WordPress or custom for a Dubai site.
How big is it?
Count the legal pages too. A clinic taking deposits through a Telr payment page needs the seven pages Telr's website checklist names: About, Terms, Privacy with a cookie policy, Delivery, Refund, Cancellation, and Contact with a P.O. Box and office address. Five marketing pages plus those seven is 12, so answer 6 to 12 pages.
A store answers with its product count. Its policy pages come with the build, and I tell you which ones each gateway checks before you apply.
Design
Theme: a proven layout set in your colours, fonts and photos, quicker and cheaper. Custom: a design made in Figma first.
Languages
Choose English and Arabic only if both launch on day one. If Arabic comes later, answer English now and have Arabic priced separately.
Integrations
Each connection to an outside system is one: a card gateway (Stripe, Telr, PayTabs, N-Genius), an instalment option (Tabby, Tamara), a Property Finder or Bayut feed, or an AI or WhatsApp chatbot. Telr plus Tabby is two; a contact form or WhatsApp button is none. A store answers One at least, for its gateway.

What each answer adds to your AED range
Your first answer picks the band. The other four decide where in it you land. No hidden multipliers.
Why the first change moves less
The band's minimum already covers one simple connection, so adding one integration to a five-page theme site changes nothing. From all-minimum answers, Arabic alone takes a business site from AED 2,900–5,700 to AED 4,300–7,100: AED 1,400, not 2,800.
Why Arabic scales with the build
Mirroring is not a translation job. Menus flip, forward arrows point the other way, and the checkout is tested end to end in Arabic. So Arabic is a share of the band, not one flat fee, and I adjust for page count when I fix the price. Here that share is a fifth of the band's spread, the same figures as our Dubai cost guide, and it covers a bilingual QA pass.
Selling online? A K&L Gates alert of January 2024 reads UAE consumer-protection rules as requiring consumer information, advertisements and contracts in Arabic, alongside any other language. Confirm with your lawyer.
| Answer | Share of the score | Business site | WordPress | Store |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| One size step | 15% a step, 30% at the top | ~2,100 | ~1,300 | ~6,500 |
| Custom design | 25% | ~3,500 | ~2,200 | ~10,800 |
| English and Arabic | 20% | ~2,800 | ~1,800 | ~8,600 |
| Each integration | About 8%, 25% at three or more | ~1,200 | ~700 | ~3,600 |
| Width of your range | 20% of the band | ~2,800 | ~1,800 | ~8,600 |
A flat add-on, such as one Dubai estimator's single AED 3,000 Arabic line, costs the same on five pages as on forty.

Five example UAE briefs run through the calculator
Illustrative briefs, not past clients. Each row is the live formula's output on 12 October 2026.
| Example brief | Answers given | Estimate (AED, ex VAT) | Timeline band |
|---|---|---|---|
| Café or trading firm brochure | WordPress, up to 5 pages, theme, English, no integrations | 2,200–4,000 | 1–2 weeks |
| Clinic or salon taking deposits | Business, 6–12 pages, theme, bilingual, Telr payment page (one) | 7,600–10,500 | 1–3 weeks |
| Abaya or perfume store | Store, up to 100 products, theme, bilingual, Telr and Tabby (two) | 17,500–26,000 | 2–6 weeks |
| Electronics store | Store, 100–500 products, custom, bilingual, three or more | 38,000–47,000 | 2–6 weeks |
| Property brokerage site | Business, 13+ pages, custom, bilingual, Property Finder and Bayut feeds (two) | 14,000–17,000 (band ceiling) | 1–3 weeks |
Large briefs sit at the long end of their timeline. The brokerage row is at the band ceiling, so a third integration changes nothing; add a CRM and it moves to the real estate website and CRM band, AED 13,500–98,000. Send a brief that size to me.

Why other Dubai calculators said AED 499 or AED 60,000
AED 499 is Control Shift's entry template package. AED 60,000 is the top of the market range Proctor Hounds cites for fully custom builds, not its own price. Check whose price it is, whether VAT is in, and whether you must leave your details to see it.
| Tool | Whose price | Arabic priced how | VAT stated | Details needed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DXB Web Designer | Own | Flat AED 1,500–3,000 | No | No |
| Oasis Digital | Own | No language question | No | For a detailed quote |
| Onlinetist | Own | Price not stated | No | No |
| Proctor Hounds | Market anchors | Not covered | No | No |
| Control Shift | Own packages | Add-on AED 500–2,500 | Yes, the only other one | No |
| Vedha | Own | Single AED 3,000 line | No | To send the estimate |
| This page | Own published bands | Share of the band | Yes, beside the result | No |

What the range leaves out, and who fixes the price
The build is only one cost
- a .ae domain: AED 125 the first year, AED 145 on renewal at AEserver, ex VAT;
- hosting, which varies by host and term, so compare renewal prices (running costs);
- gateway and instalment fees on each sale;
- Arabic translation, English copywriting and photography;
- a website care plan after launch, AED 600–1,800 a month.

I'm on WhatsApp, email or video Monday to Saturday, 08:30–17:30 Gulf Standard Time, eight and a half hours of a 9-to-6 UAE day.
