Amazon.ae announced the expansion of the international shopping experience to Qatar, allowing local customers to shop for products that will be shipped to them from the UAE. Customers can shop from categories that include 'Beauty', 'Books', 'Electronics', 'Fashion', 'Health', 'Home' and 'Kitchen appliances', 'Sports', and 'Toys'. The International Shopping experience on Amazon.ae is available in Arabic and English and customizes users' experience based on their location and shipping address. Customers can complete the payment of their Amazon.ae orders through both local and international debit and credit cards, and get their orders shipped directly to their addresses in Qatar. All cross-border customs clearance will be managed by Amazon on the customers' behalf, while customer support will also be available in Arabic and English.
Ronaldo Mouchawar, Vice President of Amazon Middle East and North Africa (MENA) said, “Online shoppers in Qatar have been asking for a way to easily find and purchase products available in their location, and this new expansion of the international shopping experience to Qatar does just that. Customers in Qatar can now browse, shop, and get shipments of hundreds of thousands of products directly to their doorstep. They can also enjoy some of our most exciting Amazon.ae sales events such as White Friday, our biggest sale of the year complete with incredible deals and promotions.’’
To get started, customers in Qatar can simply access the Amazon app or visit Amazon.ae, sign in with their current account details, or set up an account if they are new to Amazon. Customers using the App can go to settings, select ‘United Arab Emirates’, and customize their language preferences. The international shopping experience will do the rest, automatically displaying the available products, while clearly listing pricing and shipping information for customers.
