Hi,

I am a new comer to Qatar. I am doing small time advertising like print ads and stuff. My clients usually have the need for stationery items with their brand logo printed on them for their compliment supply needs.I have been thinking about importing stationery items from China and India as currently these items are expensive to buy from qatar market for my clients. But I don't have a clear picture of the importing procedures in Qatar. I searched oll over the internet but I coudn't get enough information. I hope I can find helpful knowldege from this great site and its great people :)

I would really appreciate if anyone can give me a step by step procedure and guidlines how can this be done. Also any information related to this is highly appreciated.It will very useful to me and other users on this site and I hope none hates to share this knowledge.

PS: Currently i don't have an import license. But i will get one once I get ur valuable information. Comments and advices as much as possible are appreciated. Thank you all.

Dear Mr reim,

Welcome to Qatar, if you are importing a full container it is better to appoint clearing agent here. The clearing expenses will not go more than QAR 3000#, for a 20 ft container. If you want us to assist in sourcing from china feel free to contact us.

Please include the answer also for this comment in your valuable replies.currently i need to get a 10000 pcs of pencils from egypt which comes around 80-90 kgs in total of 3 cartons. they are .107 cubic meters and valued around 2500 QAR F.O.B. Can i use DHL or similar service to ship this to qatar? Do I have any cheaper method? do I have to pay anything extra other than the normal shipping charge for things like legalization fee, custom duty ( i heared i am exempted from duty if the package is below 3000 qar and personal stuff),etc? Do I need an import license to receive this package? Or is there any workaround? Sorry for being extremely noob, i hope you will excuse me :)
