Send what the quotation needs

The stone, the finish, the thickness and quantity of each item and your port — or the bill of quantities or the drawing as it is. The full checklist

Get the quotation

Item by item, with the number of containers: FOB Alexandria, CIF Gdańsk or Gdynia, or DAP to site. Usually within one working day. What sets the price of Egyptian marble and granite

Pay in three stages

50 % in advance, on order; 30 % after your approval of the finished production; 20 % before shipping.

Approve the stone before it ships

Photographs of your actual slabs or bundles, or an inspection at the factory, before the 30 % is paid and before anything is loaded.

Loading the 20 ft container

About 421 m² of 2 cm granite or 429 m² of 2 cm marble per 20 ft, on a 25 t payload with packing. Every thickness

Shipping to Poland

Alexandria → Gdańsk or Gdynia, or Koper with road haulage: About 2 weeks to Gdańsk on a direct service; longer with transhipment.

A direct service between Alexandria and Gdańsk has run since 2026, about two weeks at sea. Stone from India and China takes far longer to reach the Baltic, because most Asia–Europe sailings still go round the Cape of Good Hope. Gdańsk also serves buyers in Czechia and the Baltic states.

Transit times are indicative port-to-port sailing times and exclude customs and inland haulage. Confirm at booking — they move with the season and the service.

Documents, duty and clearance in Poland

With every container: the commercial invoice, the packing list and the bill of lading, and a certificate of origin. Customs clearance at your end is yours or your broker's.

Finished stone sold for construction in the EU comes under the Construction Products Regulation: the importer who places it on the market draws up the Declaration of Performance under the harmonised standards — EN 1341 for paving slabs, EN 1342 for setts, EN 1343 for kerbs and EN 12058 for slabs and stairs —, and we arrange and supply the test results for the chosen stone. Tell us the standard and the use your project is specified to. For the stone you select we arrange water absorption, flexural strength and abrasion tests at an accredited laboratory.

Egyptian-origin stone enters the EU free of customs duty under the EU–Egypt Association Agreement, with an EUR.1 or EUR-MED certificate of origin issued by Egyptian customs. Import VAT is charged at the Polish rate.
