    1.  No

    2.  Not applicable

    3.  You cannot.   iPhones have to be serviced in the country where they were purchased.

    Sadly, no.   iPhones can only be serviced in the country they were originally purchased in.   Although the iPhone is an internationally known product, it is simply not possible for Apple offer the usual Apple service.

    And you are going to India.  The service there is really not that good and the only way to get service is to buy the phone in India and have the seller service any warranty.


    On the happier side, Apple will soon be opening their own stores in India and you can then expect Apple level of service from them.

    As I have twice mentioned ... iPhones can ONLY be repaired under warranty in the country where they they were purchased.   So that means Qatar.

     

    I.m sorry but we do not get involved on a personal level.  I have asked for your contact address to be removed.   It is not safe for you to publish it in a public forum.
