(02)Time zones

Our hours on UAE time

Our office runs 9am to 8pm India Standard Time (UTC+5:30). The UAE is on Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4) all year, so the difference never changes.

UAE requirements we plan for

We build to the technical requirement and flag where your legal or tax adviser should confirm.

Personal Data Protection Law

Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 for onshore businesses: consent, clear purposes, data-subject requests and secure storage.

DIFC and ADGM

Free-zone companies follow their own data protection regimes; we confirm which applies before designing forms and hosting.

5% VAT

VAT applied and shown on product pages, carts and tax invoices as your accountant specifies.

Arabic language and RTL

A real right-to-left version, not a translated left-to-right page: mirrored navigation, Arabic numerals where preferred and Arabic fonts that read well on phones.

Accessibility

Designed and tested to WCAG 2.1 AA for keyboard, screen reader and contrast, in both languages.

Security

HTTPS, two-factor admin login, backups and least-privilege access, documented at handover.

(08)FAQ

Questions UAE businesses ask us

Still have a question? Ask us directly. You will get an answer from the person who would work on your project.

Can you build an Arabic and English website?

Yes. We build a full right-to-left Arabic version alongside English, with mirrored layouts, Arabic web fonts, Arabic forms and emails, and hreflang tags so search engines show the right language. You or an Arabic copywriter approve the Arabic text.

How do your hours fit the UAE working day?

Our office runs 9am to 8pm India time, which is 7:30am to 6:30pm in the UAE. That covers your whole working day, so calls, reviews and quick fixes happen in real time.

Which payment options can your stores accept in the UAE?

Cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay through gateways such as Network International (N-Genius), Telr, Checkout.com or Stripe; buy-now-pay-later with Tabby and Tamara; and cash on delivery where your logistics partner supports it. The merchant accounts are in your company’s name.

Does the UAE data protection law affect our website?

The federal Personal Data Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021) covers most onshore businesses, while DIFC and ADGM companies follow their own free-zone data protection rules. We build consent, forms and data handling to suit, and your adviser confirms which regime applies to you.

Can you show prices with VAT?

Yes. The store applies the 5% UAE VAT and shows it the way your accountant specifies on product pages, carts and tax invoices.

Can you connect WhatsApp to our website or app?

Yes. We add WhatsApp chat buttons, order and booking notifications through the WhatsApp Business Platform via an approved provider, and lead capture that lands in your CRM.

Do we need to meet you in person?

No. Projects run on video calls, a shared task board and a staging site you can open at any time. Our office is in Ahmedabad, India, a short flight from Dubai, if you would like to meet the team.
