Wholesale Toys from China to the UAE

Choose toys for a shop, a warehouse or an online store from the catalogue of Chenghai (Shantou) and Yiwu factories. Each product card shows the price per piece and per carton, the pieces per carton and the manufacturer. Build an order from different items from 2,000 CNY in total; each item in full factory cartons. For a large quantity of one model, send the item number and the order quantity — the seller’s team in China confirms the production run, lead time and price.

Indicative quantities start from 1,000 units per model. The minimum order for your product is confirmed after the factory reviews the specifications.

For a first quote send: a link to the catalogue item, a photo, a sketch or a description; the order quantity; the changes you need; the delivery city. Mould data and project files — if you have them. A full technical brief is not needed for the first request.

Sample. A paid sample is made within 7 days when the required mould is ready. Dispatch and delivery of the sample are counted separately. For a new product or a modified mould, the sample timing is set after the technical review. The production run starts after you approve the sample.

Timing. Production of a confirmed run — 5–25 days depending on the order quantity. Development of a new model, changes to a model and mould making come before the run and are scheduled after the review.

Customs duty. 5% of the customs value on every line of heading 9503 under the GCC Common Customs Tariff as applied in the UAE (Dubai Customs HS list). The customs value is the CIF value: goods + freight + insurance. VAT — 5%, the standard rate, is also due on imported goods, on the customs value plus duty. Example for illustration only: CIF value $10,000 → duty 5% = $500 → VAT 5% on $10,500 = $525. A VAT-registered importer whose TRN is linked to its customs code accounts for import VAT in its VAT return rather than paying it at the border — check with your tax adviser.

Legal requirements. The UAE is a member of the GCC Standardization Organization (GSO). Toys for children under 14 fall under the Gulf Technical Regulation on Children’s Toys BD-131704-01: the toy must meet the essential safety requirements, carry the Gulf conformity mark (G-Mark) with the Gulf Conformity Tracking Symbol (GCTS), and be accompanied by a declaration of conformity and a technical file. The Gulf Type Examination certificate is issued by a GSO Notified Body after type testing. Safety warnings and instructions must be in Arabic. In the UAE the federal authority for conformity of regulated products is the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT).

What the seller does. For each selected item, the quotation confirms the available conformity documents and Arabic labelling. Any additional testing or labelling requirements, costs and lead times are agreed before the order is confirmed. Where testing is needed, it can be arranged close to the factory; the certification body decides the required tests. A document for one model does not cover other models.

What the importer does. Your company in the UAE places the toys on the market: it ensures the conformity assessment has been carried out, keeps the declaration of conformity and the technical file, puts its name and address on the toys and makes sure the safety information is in Arabic. Where MoIAT product registration also applies to your toys, this and its cost are confirmed in the quotation. For Amazon.ae and Noon listings, the requirements for specific products and the preparation of documents are agreed in the quotation.

Who is who. OPTTOYSCHINA is the online storefront of Yifeng Group (艺丰集团) and Chinese toy factories. The seller’s team in China confirms product specifications, prepares the quotation and agrees the supply terms with you; the contract and the invoice identify the legal entity selling your order. The logistics partner YT carries out the agreed shipment from Guangzhou to the UAE. Claims and refunds are handled by the seller.

Payment in two stages. A 30–50% advance after the order is confirmed; the balance before dispatch from the Guangzhou warehouse, once you have received the photo and video report on your cargo. Payment is made in USD directly to the seller, Yifeng Group, in China. Prices in dirhams are for reference only; payment in them is not accepted. The seller’s full details are given in the invoice and the contract.

Inspection before dispatch. Each order is inspected before it is shipped: quantity, item numbers, packaging, appearance and random functional checks; you get the photos and video before dispatch. The place of inspection and consolidation depends on the factories in your order and is confirmed in the quotation. The balance is paid only after you confirm the report. If the report shows a discrepancy for an item and you do not accept it, the item is replaced or the advance for that item is refunded. Shipments to the UAE leave from the warehouse of our logistics partner YT in Guangzhou.

Claims after receipt. Photograph or film the goods and the packaging and send the claim through the contacts on this page within 2 days of receipt. The seller replies within 3 business days. The acceptable defect rate is 2% of the batch; defects above it are compensated as agreed by both parties: replacement, refund or a discount on the next order. Refunds are paid within 14 days of the claim decision. Replacement shipping is at the seller’s expense.
