Exchange, Return, Alteration & Store Policies
At Jameelah Boutique, we are committed to providing products of the highest possible quality and ensuring that every item reaches our clients in excellent condition.

- All Haute Couture and Made-to-Measure garments are non-returnable and non-exchangeable, as they are specially produced according to the client’s individual requirements and measurements.
- If an alteration is required, the request will be reviewed and accepted only where the alteration is technically possible and approved by Jameelah Boutique.

After the 30-day period has expired, any alterations or repairs, where possible, will be subject to additional charges determined according to the nature and extent of the work required.

Any refund is subject to approval and will only be processed after the returned product has been received and inspected.
5. Inspection of Returns and Exchanges
Jameelah Boutique reserves the right to request that any product be returned for inspection before approving a return or exchange.
Submitting a return or exchange request, or returning an item, does not constitute final approval. All products are subject to inspection to verify compliance with this policy before a final decision is made.
