Shipping FAQs
Do I have to pay Import Duty and VAT charges?
We ship from the UK and we try our best to cover duties and taxes on most countries. However, if you are asked to pay an import fee, Ar Rihla will not be responsible to cover that cost or any other transit fees.
I've not received my delivery?
Please allow up to 10 working days (UK) and 20 working days (international) to allow for delivery during busy periods. If you still haven't received your order, please contact us and we will look into this for you.
Can I change my shipping address?
Yes you can, if the order has not been dispatched. Simply contact us and we can update the shipping address for you. Please note, we cannot amend an order or shipping address once it has been dispatched.
My parcel is being returned to sender, what shall I do?
Usually a delivery is attempted up to three times, and if it's still not delivered, it will be returned to sender. In this case, we would need to wait for the items to be returned to us, so that we can reschedule. A rescheduled delivery would incur an additional charge of the same price you paid for shipping on the original order.
My item has been delivered to the wrong address, what shall I do?
We would only arrange delivery to the address provided at checkout. You would need to arrange to retrieve the parcel from the address it was sent to. If this is not possible, you would need to place a new order for the products or contact the shipping company.
My parcel arrived damaged, what shall I do?
If your parcel has arrived damaged, first of all please check the contents within. If the contents within are damaged too, please take pictures of the packaging and shipping box and forward them to us at info@ar-rihla.com
