You do not. Facetime has been permanently disabled on that device and will not work. This is required by the government and not anything to do with Apple.
There is no Facetime in any phone sold in Dubai.
So why apple Dubai site is mentioning that Facetime supported device as bellow link.
Read the fine print at the bottom.
Some features may not be available for all countries or all areas. Click here to see complete list.
And the note for UAE on this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
FaceTime is not available in this country.
I can't see anything other than the iPhone has a facetime camera ,doesn't say it will work in a country where the Government has banned Facetime
If you have a issue with no FaceTime take it up with your government
Apple is only complying with the licence granted to allow it sell the device
I've recently purchased an iphone 5 with facetime from Dubai. Actually now they have the option- with or without facetime. You pay a little extra for the international version that includes facetime.
No, they have options of "iPhone intended for sale there" and "illegally imported iPhone". You pay more for the illegally imported phone.
Well, I doubt mine is illegally imported. I bought it from a worldwide known chain store with the warranty and everything. It's not UAE version, they call it international version. They did not have the option before, it's pretty recent actually.

Which is why it is illegal to sell in UAE. Facetime is banned by law there. Those phones are being imported and re-sold there illegally.
