Can I exchange my iPhone 14 for an iPhone 13 in an Apple Store in Dubai?

I have an iPhone 14, but it doesn’t function properly as it cannot be registered here in Iran.


I wonder if I can exchange it for an iPhone 13 in an Apple Store in Dubai.


Additionally, I have an iPhone 6 too. Do Apple Stores still accept that model to reduce the price of a newer model?


Any help about this subject will be highly appreciated.

You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return it for a full refund, however, I believe you have to return it in the same country it was purchased. Did you buy this phone in Dubai? if so, contact the Apple store in Dubai and ask about the return.


An iPhone 6 is too old to get a trade in value.


However, as Raicya pointed out, Apple doesn't do business in Iran and an iPhone 13 probably won't work there either.

No, it is not possible any more, see -> this Apple article: Turn the device you have into the one you want -> Apple Trade In - Apple

. . . as it cannot be registered here in Iran.

Why do you think the iPhone 13 can register in Iran?


All she needs to know is whether or not it is possible to make the exchange

(if possible) Please contact / call App Store in Dubai -> Dubai Mall - Apple Store - Apple (AE)

The Dubai Mall - Downtown - Dubai - 800 0444 9012


Apple is not here, we are also users of Apple products & services like you.

Thank you for the reply Raicya,


This doesn’t concern me, I’m in fact asking on behalf of a friend who isn’t very good at English writing.


She travels and could be in Dubai some time soon. All she needs to know is whether or not it is possible to make the exchange so she could actually make her way there.


We would be most appreciative if you could tell us about the possibility.
