Zara or Bershka for Syria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the Gulf: Which Fits Your Style
Zara and Bershka belong to one group but speak to different tastes: choose Zara for classic and smart pieces for women, men and children, and Bershka for youthful fashion and looser cuts. Delivery on the Zara site must be inside Türkiye, so the order reaches the receiving address first and is shipped on to you. Send the link, size and color through Buy for Me.

Who each brand dresses
Zara is a Spanish brand with a Turkish store, showing clothes for women, men and children in classic lines and smart pieces, so it suits work and occasions. Bershka belongs to the same group and aims its pieces at young people, with looser cuts and street-style designs, sold on a separate Turkish store. For a piece for the office start with Zara; for an everyday piece for university or going out start with Bershka.
How to avoid a size mistake between the brands
Do not carry your size from one brand to the other, since Bershka cuts are often looser than Zara. Read the measurement chart on the item page and compare it with a garment you own, and give the item code, color and a backup size in your order. On Zara delivery is asked for inside the same market, so do not enter your home address in the delivery box; use the receiving address in Türkiye we give you.
What is specific to buying for Syria
The parcel to Syria is priced by governorate and carton size: a medium carton (60×40×40 cm up to 15 kg) is $15 to the north, $17 to the center and $20 to the south, and a large carton (80×50×50 cm up to 30 kg) is $20, $23 and $25, in MarkaShip’s reference table excluding customs. Loose Bershka pieces take more volume than smart Zara ones, so if the first order is a coat and a suit, the large carton may be cheaper than two parcels. Syrian winters are cold, so a coat adds volume.
How orders ship and arrive
Shipping to Syria runs by land through Turkish border crossings, and MarkaShip publishes reference rates in USD excluding customs: a medium carton (60×40×40 cm up to 15 kg) is $15 to the north (Idlib, Aleppo), $17 to the center (Homs, Hama) and $20 to the south (Damascus); a large carton (80×50×50 cm up to 30 kg) is $20, $23 and $25. Rates are confirmed per shipment. Write your Syria address with city, area and a nearby landmark, plus the recipient name and an active phone number. Keep the seller invoices. Published rates exclude customs, so current import and carrier rules for the actual goods still apply.
What is specific to buying for Saudi Arabia
Orders ship to Saudi Arabia by air from Istanbul, charged on the greater of actual and dimensional weight, with home delivery to Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam. With the long summer heat, read the fabric composition on lighter pieces, and keep the invoice of each order. ZATCA publishes the import and clearance guidance, so check it for the actual goods.
How orders ship and arrive (Saudi Arabia)
Shipping to Saudi Arabia runs by air on regular flights from Istanbul: the order reaches the warehouse, is checked and packed, then leaves on the next scheduled shipment, with home delivery in Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam. Enter the recipient name, mobile number and city exactly, and have your national address ready if the carrier asks for it. Keep the seller invoices. ZATCA publishes the import, clearance and product-specific requirements that apply.
What is specific to buying for Kuwait
The Kuwait route runs by air from Istanbul with frequent departures, and home delivery covers Kuwait City, Hawalli, Farwaniya and Jahra. Bershka’s oversized pieces take more volume than Zara’s formal ones, so combine both orders in one parcel instead of two small ones, keep each order invoice, and check Kuwait’s General Administration of Customs for the current rules on the actual goods.
How orders ship and arrive (Kuwait)

What is specific to buying for the UAE
The UAE route runs by air from Istanbul to Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with home delivery across the seven emirates. Add your Makani number to a Dubai address if you know it to ease delivery, and check the customs authority of the emirate the parcel enters, since each emirate has its own.
How orders ship and arrive (the UAE)
The UAE route runs by air from Istanbul to Dubai or Abu Dhabi on the next schedule after the order is consolidated in the warehouse, and home delivery covers all seven emirates. Write your address with emirate, city, area, building name and apartment number, plus your Makani number in Dubai if you know it, the recipient name and an active phone. Keep the seller invoices. Each emirate has its own customs authority, so the authority at the entry point applies, such as Dubai Customs.
What is specific to buying for Qatar
Qatar is served by air from Istanbul with clearance at Hamad airport, then delivery in Doha, Al Wakrah, Al Rayyan and Al Khor. Bershka’s oversized pieces take more volume than Zara’s formal ones, so combine both orders in one parcel instead of two small ones; most personal parcels to Qatar are mid-sized, which keeps the cost clear. Keep each order invoice and check Qatar’s General Authority of Customs for the actual goods.
How orders ship and arrive (Qatar)
Qatar is served by air from Istanbul with clearance at Hamad airport, then delivery in Doha, Al Wakrah, Al Rayyan and Al Khor.

What is specific to buying for Bahrain
Bahrain is served by air via Istanbul, and home delivery reaches Manama, Muharraq, Riffa and Isa Town after the shipment lands. Distances inside the kingdom are short, so delivery time barely differs between Manama and Riffa; what matters more is combining Zara and Bershka in one parcel because oversized cuts change the dimensional calculation. Choose the size from the chart of the item itself and keep the invoices for the customs services on the national portal.
How orders ship and arrive (Bahrain)
Bahrain is served by air via Istanbul, and home delivery reaches Manama, Muharraq, Riffa and Isa Town shortly after the shipment lands, since distances inside the kingdom are short.

Any customs duties are paid through the customs affairs services on Bahrain’s national portal.
