Last Updated: February 22, 2026

At Hayaa Bio, we ship laboratory research materials in accordance with applicable logistics, customs, and safety requirements. All products sold are designated strictly for Research and Development use only and are shipped exclusively for laboratory, analytical, or scientific research purposes.


1. Shipping Regions

We currently ship to the following regions:

  • Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC):
    Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman

  • International Destinations:
    Selected countries outside the GCC, subject to carrier availability, customs regulations, and import restrictions

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel shipments to any destination where the import of research chemicals or peptides is restricted, prohibited, or presents regulatory or logistical risk.


2. Order Processing Time

Orders are processed within 12 business hours after payment confirmation, including weekends and public holidays in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Processing time refers to order verification, quality control, and packaging, and does not include shipping transit time.

Orders flagged for compliance review, address verification, or payment validation may require additional processing time.
