Shipping from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia +966546575837

Shipping from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia by land in closed trucks over the Hajar Mountains to Dubai, then Abu Dhabi, Ghuwaifat and Al Batha, or by sea in containers from Fujairah Port to Dammam and Jeddah: pickup in Fujairah, Dibba and Masafi, packing for humidity and a load secured for the mountain road, inventory and customs exemption papers, car shipping, and delivery to every Saudi city.

p>Fujairah is the only emirate on the east coast. The Hajar Mountains separate it from the rest of the UAE, and it has a major port on the Gulf of Oman. From here we ship to every city in the Kingdom: by land in closed trucks that cross the mountains to Dubai, then on through Abu Dhabi to the Ghuwaifat crossing and Al Batha, or by sea in containers from Fujairah Port. We collect from Fujairah itself, from Dibba and Masafi, and from the surrounding areas.

Who ships from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia?

Fujairah has families living in villas and family homes in Al Faseel, Sakamkam, Merashid and Dibba, staff working at the port, the refineries and the marine companies, and teachers and doctors moving to the Kingdom. There are also traders in Fujairah who import through its port and want their goods delivered to the Kingdom.

The shipment’s route from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia

Stage	Details	Approx. time
Collection and packing	At your home in Fujairah or Dibba, with dismantling and inventory	One day
Fujairah → Dubai over the mountains	The mountain road via Masafi, or the motorway	About two hours
Dubai → Ghuwaifat	West through Abu Dhabi	About six hours
Crossing and clearance, then your city	Ghuwaifat, then Al Batha, then Al Ahsa, Dammam and Riyadh	One to two days

The mountain stretch of the road calls for a well-secured load, because the bends and gradients shift things about. We strap everything down before leaving Fujairah and check the load again in Dubai before carrying on west.

Transit time from Fujairah to Saudi cities

Destination city in the Kingdom	Approx. time from Fujairah
Al Ahsa, Dammam and Khobar	Two working days
Riyadh and Al Kharj	Usually three working days
Qassim and Hail	Three to four working days
Jeddah, Makkah and Taif	Four to five working days
Madinah and Yanbu	Four to six working days
Abha, Jazan and Najran	Five to six working days

It takes about a day longer than from Dubai because of the mountain crossing, and the time is counted from the day of loading.

These are starting prices, and they’re slightly higher than from Dubai because of the mountain crossing and the extra distance. The final price depends on the volume, the services you need and the Saudi city you’re moving to.

These prices don’t include Saudi customs duties or VAT where they apply, such as on commercial goods, new appliances and cars, and we’ll explain that to you before loading.

Sea by container	Full containers and heavy goods	Several days longer than land	From Jebel Ali or Khalifa to Dammam or Jeddah

Land suits homes and personal belongings. Sea from Fujairah Port suits traders and full containers, and air from Fujairah or Dubai airport is for urgent parcels.

Fujairah Port on the Gulf of Oman

Fujairah Port is one of the biggest ports on the region’s east coast, and it takes ships from outside the Gulf. For traders who import through it, we arrange container shipping by sea to the port of Dammam or Jeddah, or move the goods from the port to the Kingdom by land in closed trucks, with clearance included.

Crossing the Hajar Mountains

The road from Fujairah to Dubai crosses the Hajar Mountains, with bends and steep gradients. So we arrange the load with the heavy items at the bottom and in the middle, fill the gaps, and secure appliances on two sides. On this stretch, that protects your furniture more than any packing does.

Furniture packing in Fujairah

Furniture packing from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia

Fujairah is humid and coastal, and the road out is long and mountainous, so we pack with both in mind:

Leather sofas in film and a fabric cover.
Moisture-absorbing sachets in clothing cartons.
Bedrooms dismantled and numbered.
Glass and mirrors upright in frames.
Appliances in double-wall cartons, secured on two sides.
Dishes in divided cartons.

Loading in Fujairah

The truck stops at your door, we load the heavy items at the bottom and in the middle, and we strap the load for the mountain road. For traders, we load containers at the port:

Loading the container from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia

Truck type	Best for	How it is priced
Shared truck	Cartons, one or two rooms, a few appliances	Per kg, per item or per cubic metre
Private dyna or medium truck	A small flat or an office	One price for the whole trip
13 to 15 m closed trailer	A villa or large home, or goods	One price for the whole trip
Refrigerated truck	Dates, food and sensitive medicines	Per pallet or per trip
Enclosed car carrier	One or more cars	Per car, by size

The load is built in layers and strapped, and we send you a photo of it before the truck sets off.

Car shipping from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia

We collect the car from your home in Fujairah, clean it and photograph it, fit a protective cover, then load it onto an enclosed car carrier and secure it firmly for the mountain crossing.

The Kingdom allows the import of used cars no more than five years old under the current requirements, provided they meet Saudi specifications, with 5% customs duty and 15% VAT. These conditions can change, so we review your car’s details with the broker before booking. Its papers: the car’s ownership card, the export certificate and export plates from the Fujairah traffic department, the purchase invoice, and a copy of your passport and ID.

The customs exemption for used furniture in the Kingdom

ZATCA exempts personal effects and used household items brought in by a Saudi returning after living abroad, and those brought in by a foreigner arriving to live in the Kingdom for the first time, provided they’re used, for personal rather than commercial use, and arrive within six months of their owner. Cars aren’t covered by this exemption, and VAT is still due on anything the exemption doesn’t cover. Usually required:

A copy of the Saudi national ID, or the Saudi iqama for residents.
A copy of the passport.
Proof of previous residence in the UAE, or of arriving for the first time.
A numbered packing list with the contents of every carton and item.
An authorisation for the customs broker through the FASAH platform.

New boxed appliances in quantity, however, may be treated as goods subject to duties and tax, and we’ll tell you before loading.

Goods from Fujairah Port to the Kingdom

We collect goods from Fujairah Port or from traders’ warehouses and ship them by land in trailers or by sea in containers to Dammam or Jeddah, with their invoices and certificates of origin.

Documents required for shipping from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia

A copy of the sender’s passport and Emirates ID or residence visa.
A copy of the receiver’s Saudi national ID or iqama.
A numbered packing list.
For goods: a commercial invoice, certificate of origin and packing list, plus a conformity certificate through the SABER platform where needed.
For cars: the ownership card and the export certificate.
The broker’s authorisation through the FASAH platform.

Crossing from Ghuwaifat to Al Batha

The truck leaves the Ghuwaifat crossing once the UAE export papers are stamped, then enters the Al Batha crossing, the only land crossing between the two countries, where the broker files the Saudi customs declaration and the load is checked against the packing list. When the papers have been sent ahead, this usually takes a few hours, and the truck then carries on to your city. From Fujairah, we add about two hours to the Dubai route to reach the crossing.

Delivery in Saudi cities

We deliver to Riyadh, Dammam, Al Ahsa, Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah and elsewhere, carrying the furniture inside, reassembling it and checking it with you.

Air freight from Fujairah to Saudi Arabia

Urgent parcels and documents go by air from Fujairah or Dubai airport to Saudi cities in one to two working days. It’s charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, which you can estimate with our volumetric weight calculator. Furniture and appliances are far cheaper by land and arrive only a few days later.

Cargo insurance

We recommend insuring cars, expensive appliances and antiques for a small percentage of their declared value, and we photograph your belongings before loading in every case, so you have a record to refer back to.

What cannot be shipped to the Kingdom

Flammable materials, gas cylinders and fuel.
Weapons, ammunition and anything resembling them.
Narcotics and restricted medicines without a prescription and permission.
Alcoholic drinks and pork products.
Counterfeit goods and anything banned under either country’s rules.
Loose lithium batteries by air.

Mistakes that delay a shipment from Fujairah

Missing paperwork for goods imported through the port.
