What has to travel with it

Qatar is a GAFTA member, so an Arab preference certificate of origin legalised through the Egyptian Chamber of Commerce applies to qualifying Egyptian goods. Qatar applies GCC standards and requires a certificate of origin with the shipping documents — confirm the current conformity requirements for stone with your clearing agent before we ship. Timber packaging is heat treated to ISPM 15.

Paving & hardscape

Granite paving for Qatar projects

Granite goes into the external works around hotels and towers here: paving cubes and setts for forecourts, parking and landscaped areas, 60 or 80 mm thick, with kerbs and plinths from the same stone. We price a paving bill of quantities line by line, CIF Hamad Port, with the container count for every thickness.

04 — Questions

Buying from Egypt, into Qatar

Can you hold material for a phased handover?

Yes. We reserve the block and cut to call-off so the last floor matches the first.

Do you supply bookmatched pairs?

Yes, cut and numbered in sequence so they can be installed as a pair.

Do you deliver to site in Doha?

Yes, DAP to site where you prefer one contract to the door.

Quoting for Qatar?

Send the stone, the finish, the thickness, the quantity and the destination port. You get FOB and CIF prices and a lead time, usually within one working day.
