Buying from online Apple store of United Arab Emirates with an Egyptian Visa or Mastercard

Hi everyone ,

I would like to know if I can use my Egyptian Visa or MasterCard to buy an iphone from UAE online apple store , I will pay the money and I will make it be shipped to one of my relatives living in UAE .

So , will this work ?!

and if it did can my relative pick it up from the store after pre-ordering it ?

and what about buying gift cards to buy the iphone , will it work the Egyptian visa ?

and Thanks in advance 😊

To get answers to such questions you need to contact the store directly yourself

I don't know if it helps, but last year I used my credit card issued in Poland to reserve an iPhone for pick up in Apple Store in Berlin and had no problems whatsoever.

One way or another you will have to communicate with them directly yourself. Nobody in these forums represents Apple or any store, we are just other users like you.
