How you pay

Buying FAQ
Do I need an import licence?
Import rules depend on your country, so your customs broker should confirm. We supply the export documents listed above.
Can I combine products in one shipment?
Yes. Saffron, barberry and rock candy can be quoted on one proforma and shipped together.
How long is a quote valid?
Saffron prices follow the Mashhad market, so each quote states its validity.
