Unless FaceTime is prohibited in that region, FaceTime should be installed by default on your device. Go to the settings and make sure that FaceTime is enabled.

FaceTime is prohibited here in Dubai, so the unit you bought does not have it by default. Unfortunately the only way you'll ever get FaceTime is whenever the local authorities here in Dubai lift the ban and when Apple pushes out a software update to enable the feature
