SHIPPING & RETURNS
Everything you need to know about delivery, tracking, and returns.
UAE DELIVERY TIMES
All orders are fulfilled from our Dubai warehouse via our logistics partner.
Orders placed before the daily cut-off (12pm) may qualify for same-day dispatch (where applicable).
Our standard delivery time in UAE is 1–2 days.
We usually deliver on the same day or next day.
During public holidays such as Eid, delivery times may be extended by a few days. If your order is delayed, please contact us at support@theneatshark.com and we'll assist you with the latest updates.
Our delivery time to remote areas is 3–6 business days depending on courier coverage.
Business days exclude weekends and UAE public holidays.
A list of remote delivery locations can be found here.
Delivery timelines are estimates and may vary slightly due to public holidays, weather conditions, or operational factors outside our control.
UAE SHIPPING FEES
If you buy 1 item, shipping is AED 15.
If you buy 2 items, shipping is free.
If you buy 3 or more items, you get free shipping + 10% automatic discount at checkout.
Shipping fees are calculated automatically at checkout.
Certain locations classified as remote may have a flat AED 30 delivery fee and extended delivery timelines.
This will be communicated to the customer before dispatch if applicable.

PAYMENT OPTIONS
Credit/debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Tabby, and Cash on Delivery (UAE only).
All digital payments are processed through Shopify's secure checkout, so your card details are encrypted and protected.
Available within the UAE. Cash or card accepted at delivery, with no extra handling fee.
Once your order is out for delivery, you'll receive a payment link in case you'd like to prepay before the courier arrives.
Otherwise, pay the courier directly on arrival.
Please make sure the phone number on your order is reachable so our delivery team can coordinate timing.
ORDER TRACKING
Once your order is dispatched, you will receive a tracking message via WhatsApp.
If WhatsApp is not available, an SMS will be sent instead.
Your tracking link allows you to:
- View real-time delivery progress
- See your estimated delivery date and time
- Confirm or update your delivery address
- Leave delivery instructions (for prepaid orders)
- Switch the tracking experience to Arabic if preferred
Please ensure your phone number is entered correctly at checkout to avoid delivery delays.

Please ensure your phone number and address are accurate.
If delivery cannot be completed due to unavailable recipient or incorrect details, additional delivery charges may apply.
