プレゼント用（よう）にしてください
Meaning:
“Please make it for a gift.” / “Please wrap it as a gift.”
This is the correct expression when **you are buying a present at a department store** and want the staff to wrap it as a gift.
✔ Option 1 is the natural request to the store staff.
✔ Option 2 means “It has already been prepared as a gift,” which you would not say yourself.
✔ Option 3 means “It seems it will become a present,” which is unnatural and incorrect.
Example:
「これ、プレゼント用にしてください。」
(Please wrap this as a gift.)
プレゼント用（よう）
Meaning: “For a gift”; gift-wrapped.
Example:
プレゼント用（よう）に包（つつ）む。
(Wrap something as a gift.)
～にしてあります
Meaning: “It has been made/prepared as ~.”
→ Used to describe something already done, not to make a request.
Example:
部屋（へや）は掃除（そうじ）してあります。
(The room has been cleaned.)
～になるそうです
Meaning: “It seems it will become ~.”
→ Not used when asking staff to wrap a gift.
Example:
明日（あした）は雨（あめ）になるそうです。
(It seems it will rain tomorrow.)
