You can buy good fiber reactive dyes in many countries around the world. I know of good sources in the UK, Denmark, Spain, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Germany. Most of these companies will ship internationally, as well. Some hand-dyers in countries such as Israel find it most economical to order their dyes from PRO Chemical & Dye in the US, in spite of the cost of shipping. In other countries, do a web search to find a local representative of a major dye company such as Dystar, or Huntsman Textile Effects, then ask them to give you contact information for a local seller of their dyes. The best dyes for tie-dyeing are fiber reactive dyes, such as Procion MX dye, Remazol dye, Novacron dye (formerly Cibacron F), Levafix dye, and Drimarene K dye. Where are you located?

But don't say where there is. In any case you can most likely find the dye you need at any grocery store. If not try any store that sells cloth.
