Two ways to ship Malatya dried apricots to Qatar

If you buy Malatya dried apricots yourself from a store that delivers inside Turkey, enter the receiving-centre address with your name and box number, and the order is logged to your account. If the store rejects your card or asks for a Turkish phone, send the links with Buy for Me. Parcels stay free at the warehouse for up to 30 days so you can combine orders.

Transit time and mode

The parcel flies from Istanbul, and transit is about 3 to 5 days and can reach a week once the shipment leaves, after the store’s own delivery inside Turkey to the warehouse. Once it arrives, the parcel is delivered in Doha, Al Wakrah, Al Rayyan and Al Khor and other cities, and you follow each step from your account.

How the price is worked out

Shipping is charged on the greater of actual and dimensional weight after packing, so you estimate it first in the shipping calculator and the figure is fixed after weighing at the warehouse, before dispatch. Dried apricots are light and travel well, so ask for sealed packs with origin labels and expiry dates, combine them with nuts in one parcel, air suits home quantities, and check food import rules.

Golden versus natural

Bright golden apricots are usually treated with sulphur dioxide to keep their colour, while naturally sun-dried ones are dark brown with deeper taste. Malatya is Turkey best known apricot region, so read the label and choose. Charges may apply in Qatar by value and quantity, and commercial quantities need a separate quote.
