Frequently asked questions
Everything movers usually want to know before getting started. Can't find it here? Get in touch.
Getting started
What is Delbazi?
Delbazi connects people relocating to Dubai with Locals who have already made the move. Instead of piecing together advice from forums, you get honest, personal guidance on neighbourhoods, schools, culture, and the practical side of settling in.
Who are the Locals?
Locals and established residents of Dubai who want to help newcomers find their footing. Every Local profile is reviewed and verified by our team before it appears in the marketplace.
Do I need to be in Dubai already?
No. Plenty of movers connect with a Local while they are still planning the move, then keep the relationship going once they arrive.
How do I get started?
Create a free account and answer a few questions about your move. We use your answers to suggest Locals matched to your situation, languages, and priorities.
Intro calls
What is an intro call?
A short, low-commitment call to check whether you and a Local are a good fit before booking a full session. Think of it as the "do we click?" step.
How much do intro calls cost?
You pay one small, symbolic fee for a batch of intro calls. If the first Local is not the right fit, you can use the remaining calls in that batch with other Locals at no extra cost. Each intro call must be with a different Local.
Why is there a fee at all?
The fee keeps introductions genuine and reduces no-shows. It is not a charge for the Local’s time — Locals are not paid for intro calls.
Bookings & payments
How much do sessions cost?
Full sessions are priced by each Local and shown clearly before you book. There is no fixed platform price — you choose the Local and package that suit your needs and budget.
How do I pay?
Payments are handled securely through our payment provider. Delbazi never stores your card details.
Can I cancel a booking?
Yes. You can cancel eligible bookings from your dashboard and the Local is notified automatically. Refund eligibility for paid sessions follows the cancellation policy shown at checkout.
How do sessions actually happen?
You book a time that works for both of you, and the session takes place as a call. Everything — bookings, messages, and history — lives in your dashboard.
Trust & safety
Are Locals really verified?
Yes. Every Local profile goes through a review before it appears, and we can request changes, decline, or suspend a profile at any time to keep quality high.
How is my information handled?
We only use your information to run the service and match you with the right Locals. Our Privacy Policy explains exactly what we collect and why.
What if I run into a problem?
You can reach our support team any time from in-app messages, or through the Contact page. A real person will help you sort it out.
