Quick answer

The UAE now has reliable kosher options in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Buy packaged goods at Carrefour and Spinneys branches with the UAE Kosher Board seal. Visit dedicated shops such as Kosher Deli Dubai and The Kosher Shop Abu Dhabi for fresh meat, bread, and dairy. Restaurants holding 2026 certification from the UAE Kosher Board operate in Dubai Marina, JLT, and Abu Dhabi’s Al Reem Island. Order via Careem, Talabat, or directly from restaurant websites for delivery.

Where to buy packaged kosher products

Most major supermarkets now carry certified kosher items. Look for the UAE Kosher Board logo on packaging. 2026 shelf prices average AED 18-32 for imported cereals, AED 25-45 for canned tuna packs, and AED 12-18 for matzo boxes. Check these locations:
