How to start in UAE

Hi guys, could you, please, share your experience, how to start sell in UAE (not drop shipping).

Now the store is created for Europe. (in progress, actually)

Physically products (clothes) in Europe.

So, from Shopify technical perspective. I believe my steps are:

  1. Language: do something to make store multilangage (some app with auto/manual translate)?

  2. Setup switching to client language (maybe add some subdomain like uae.mystore.com?)

  3. Payments. Is it enough “Shopify payments“ which I have already. (maybe add other like Telr, PayTabs)

  4. Delivery. Could you suggest?

Thanks in advance!

Use Shopify Markets + a translation app (no need for a subdomain).
Shopify Payments is fine, but I’ve added PayTabs before for better local card acceptance.
DHL Express or Aramex are the smoothest Europe→UAE options.

thank you so much! But now I have some update: physical product store will be located in Dubai itself. How it impact to shop, fulfull settings?
