Account Validity:

• Thuraya NOVA plan has initial validity of one (1) year from first call.
• Annual Renewal Fee: $39.00
• If the account balance is below $39 at the renewal time, the account enters the 90-day grace period. Incoming calls are still possible.
• If the account is refilled within the grace period, the existing balance will be restored.
• If the account is NOT refilled within the grace period, the entire unused balance will be reset to zero and the account will be permanently deactivated.
• Dormancy Fee: Thuraya prepaid accounts that haven't been used for chargeable calls or text messages for 12 months will incur a $19 MONTHLY dormancy fee.

Destination Bands

• The majority of world countries and territories fall in Band 1 destinations (see the Calling Rates table above).
• The countries, territories and other satellite systems mentioned below correspond to Band 2 and Catch-All destinations. Calling to those destinations will result in a significantly higher calling rate and faster depletion of your Thuraya prepaid balance.
