Selling Outside Bahrain: FAQ

How do I start shipping my products outside Bahrain?

Pick a target GCC market, confirm your item is allowed, price it including shipping and duties, then book an Oreem pickup. Oreem handles customs, transport and delivery to your customer.

Which country should I sell to first?

Usually Saudi Arabia for its market size, or the UAE for its ecommerce maturity, then expand across the Gulf.

Do I have to deal with customs myself?

No. Oreem handles both export clearance from Bahrain and customs clearance in the destination country.

How much are customs duties in the GCC?

Import duty is often around 5% of the CIF value plus local VAT, and low-value parcels are frequently exempt. Correct paperwork keeps parcels moving.

Can I offer Cash on Delivery abroad?

Yes. Oreem collects payment in the local currency and remits it to you, so you can sell to customers who do not pay online.

How long does GCC delivery take?

Typically 1 to 4 days by land within the Gulf, depending on the destination.

Air, land or sea — which is cheapest?

Land is usually cheapest for GCC parcels, sea is best for bulk, and air is best for speed and high-value items.

Can Oreem store and pack my stock?

Yes. Oreem offers fulfillment and warehousing in Bahrain and ships each order regionally on your behalf.
