I bought a new iPhone 11 pro from Dubai and there is no FaceTime

Hello,

I just bought today new iphone 11 pro from Dubai and I asked the salesperson to get one with facetime

once i got home, I opened the cell phone but I was really surprised since there is no facetime as the salesperson told me.

Is it possible to exchange it or not?

You may need to contact the establishment you bought it from

As far as I know iPhones intended for the Dubai market have FaceTime disabled permanently

It cannot be restored on those devices

FaceTime and FaceTime audio calling might not be available for all countries, regions, or carriers

FaceTime isn't available or might not appear on devices purchased in Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and United Arab Emirates, including Dubai. However, with iOS 11.3 or later, FaceTime is available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch in Saudi Arabia. And with iOS 12.4 or later, FaceTime is available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch in Pakistan. Update your device to get FaceTime in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
