Zayr accepts bank transfer, JazzCash or Easypaisa before dispatch. Use the server-calculated amount and payment reference at checkout, then submit your transaction/reference ID for review. Orders are confirmed after receipt is verified, and delivery is Rs.280 per order below Rs.5,000, and free at Rs.5,000 or more after discounts.
The gift itself is the easy part. The payment, the address, the size and the timing are where orders from abroad go wrong, and each has a simple fix.

Can I pay online from abroad for jewellery delivered in Pakistan?
Zayr accepts bank transfer, JazzCash or Easypaisa before dispatch. Use the server-calculated amount and payment reference at checkout, then submit your transaction/reference ID for review. Orders are confirmed after receipt is verified, and delivery is Rs.280 per order below Rs.5,000, and free at Rs.5,000 or more after discounts.
Who pays for a gift sent to Pakistan with cash on delivery?
Whoever receives the parcel pays the rider. That can be the recipient or a relative you have arranged it with. Make sure someone in the household expects the parcel, because an unexpected COD parcel is likely to be refused and returned.
How long does jewellery take to reach family in Pakistan?
One to two working days in Lahore, two to three in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Gujranwala and Sialkot, two to four in Karachi and Sargodha, three to four in Multan, Peshawar, Hyderabad and Abbottabad, three to five in Bahawalpur, and four to six in Quetta and remote areas.
Can the price be hidden on a gift sent to Pakistan?
Yes. Ask in the order notes for the price to be left off the invoice. The rider still needs to collect the order amount in cash, so the person paying will know the total, but the paperwork inside the parcel will not show it.
What if the ring I send from abroad is the wrong size?
Zayr exchanges unworn pieces in their original packaging within 7 days of delivery. Ask the recipient to try it on the day it arrives, keep the box, and message +923332844663 on WhatsApp. You or they can arrange the exchange.
Ready when you are
Bank or wallet payment nationwide, exchanges on sizing.

Ready when you are
Bank or wallet payment nationwide, exchanges on sizing.
You may not have written your family's address in full for years, and a courier needs more than the version everyone at home knows by heart. The full guide to addresses and phone numbers for COD orders goes deeper, but the essentials are these.
House number, street, block, sector or phase, area and city, in that order. In DHA and Bahria Town the phase is essential.
A nearby landmark: a mosque, a school, a petrol pump, a well-known shop sign.
The recipient's name as they would answer the door, not the formal name on their ID card if nobody uses it.
A Pakistani mobile number that will be answered during the day in Pakistan time, which is UTC+5.
Your own WhatsApp number in the order notes, so we can reach you if something needs checking.
A request in the notes to leave the price off the invoice, if you do not want it seen.
How long delivery takes, city by city
Delivery is counted in working days from dispatch in Lahore. These are the windows we actually see, and the sensible margin to leave before a date.
Time zones help rather than hurt. An order placed late in the evening in the UK or North America is already the next morning in Pakistan, and orders confirmed early in the Lahore working day have the best chance of going out the same day.
Sizes, when you cannot measure anyone
Chains are the safe choice. 40–45 cm for women and 50–55 cm for men suits almost everyone.
Bracelets are nearly as safe. 17–19 cm for women and 20–22 cm for men, or ask someone to measure one they already own.
Rings need a real measurement. On a video call, ask a relative to measure the inner diameter of a ring the person already wears, in millimetres.
Bangles are sized by the hand, not the wrist, and a wrong bangle size is the most common exchange there is.
Eid, weddings and visits home
The last ten days of Ramadan are the busiest period of the year for Pakistani couriers, and delivery windows stretch. For Eid, order two weeks before the expected moon sighting. Shaadi season, from November to February, is similar, especially into Punjab. If you are flying home for a wedding, having the gift delivered to family a week before you land is often easier than carrying it through two airports.
Exchanges when you are not there
Zayr's exchange window is 7 days from delivery, for unworn pieces in their original packaging. Ask the recipient to try the piece on the day it arrives and keep the box. Either of you can arrange an exchange on WhatsApp at +923332844663 or by email at queries@zayrclothing.com, and we reply around the clock, which suits anyone in a different time zone.
On what you are sending: Zayr's men's pieces are 316L stainless steel with PVD gold and black tones, and the women's rings are plated over a hypoallergenic base and set with cubic zirconia. We do not sell real gold, silver or diamonds, so if the gift is meant as an heirloom in gold, that is a purchase for a trusted jeweller in Pakistan.
From abroad, the best gift is the one someone at home was told to expect.
