The one tip that matters most

Many buildings in the UAE do not have clear street numbers, so couriers almost always call before delivery. Write the building name, flat number, area and a nearby landmark, and give your brother's UAE mobile number with +971. Missed calls are the most common reason for a late rakhi in the Gulf.

What to send

Rakhis, rakhi sets and chocolates are popular for the UAE. Check each product page for its delivery countries. Browse the rakhi for UAE collection. Sending to Saudi Arabia, Qatar or Kuwait too? See our Gulf countries guide.
