What sets shipping from Jeddah to the UAE apart:

• A long land route, about 2,000 km to Dubai.
• Double packing that withstands heat and vibration.
• Air from King Abdulaziz Airport for urgent parcels.
• Cars on an enclosed carrier all the way.

The shipment’s route from Jeddah to the UAE

Stage	Details	Approx. time
Collection and packing	At your home in Jeddah, with dismantling and inventory	One day
Jeddah → Riyadh → Al Batha	About 1,550 km	About two days
Crossing and clearance	Al Batha, then Ghuwaifat	Hours
Ghuwaifat → your address	Abu Dhabi, then Dubai, Sharjah and the other emirates	Hours to a day

The truck covers the whole road without changing its load, from Jeddah to Riyadh and then east to Al Batha. Sea from Jeddah to Jebel Ali goes round the Arabian Peninsula and takes longer, so we use land for furniture and keep sea for large goods containers.

Which crossing does your shipment from Jeddah use?

Saudi → UAE crossing	Location	Beyond it
Al Batha → Ghuwaifat	The far east of the Kingdom on the Abu Dhabi border	The coastal road to Ruwais and Abu Dhabi, then on to Dubai, Sharjah and the other emirates

Jeddah shipments enter the UAE from Al Batha to Ghuwaifat, then the coastal road to Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Packing for a long road to the UAE

A shipment from Jeddah to Dubai covers more than two thousand kilometres, much of it in the desert. So we pack with heavier materials than usual: two layers for sofas and beds, double-wall cartons for appliances, wooden crates for glass and antiques, and moisture-absorbing sachets because the belongings go from Jeddah’s humidity to the dry desert.

We put on every carton its number and the room it came from, so the delivery crew in the UAE puts everything in its place.

Packing furniture in Jeddah

Jeddah homes usually have mirrors, paintings, china sets and wooden furniture, so we prepare:

• Protective frames for mirrors, paintings and glass.
• Wooden crates for antiques and chandeliers.
• Divided cartons for dishes, each piece wrapped on its own.
• Wrapping wood once it is dry, then blankets.
• Moisture-absorbing sachets inside appliance and clothes cartons.

Loading in Jeddah and the truck type

Many Jeddah homes are flats in towers, so we use the freight lift or an external hoist for big pieces. We stack the load to withstand more than two thousand kilometres: heavy at the bottom, fragile on top, gaps filled.

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

A few items are consolidated at our Jeddah warehouse and loaded onto the shared truck heading to the UAE.

Car shipping from Jeddah to the UAE

We collect the car from your home in Jeddah, clean and photograph it, fit a protective cover, then load it onto an enclosed car carrier that covers the whole road free of dust.

Registering an imported car in the UAE has conditions, usually chiefly that it is no more than ten years old from its year of manufacture, passes the technical inspection, and comes with an export certificate from the traffic department in the Kingdom and proof of ownership. A car already cleared through customs in a GCC country may be exempt from UAE customs duty on proof of that; otherwise duty and VAT apply. These conditions can change, so we review your car’s details before booking. Its papers from the Kingdom: a valid registration, no fines or liens, an export request through Absher or the traffic department with the plates handed in, the purchase invoice or sale contract, and a copy of your ID or iqama.

If you will drive your own car to the UAE for a visit and bring it back, that is an ordinary crossing at Al Batha with valid insurance covering the UAE and the car’s papers, and needs no shipping.

Air freight from Jeddah to the UAE

Air freight from Jeddah to the UAE goes from King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah to the airports of Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, and usually takes one to two working days.

Air suits:

• Documents, contracts and certificates.
• Small devices such as laptops and phones in their original boxes.
• Commercial samples and urgent spare parts.
• Gifts and light personal items.

It is charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight; send us the weight and dimensions and we will work it out for you. Many of our customers send a suitcase of urgent things by air and leave the rest of the home to the truck.

Shipping goods from Jeddah to the UAE

From Jeddah traders send fabrics, perfumes, food, appliances and spare parts to the UAE. Small quantities go on a shared truck, large ones on a full truck, or in a sea container to Sohar if that is cheaper for a big quantity.

Jeddah districts we collect from

Al Hamra, Al Rawdah, Al Zahra, Al Salamah, Al Naeem, Al Mohammadiyah and North Obhur in the north; Al Safa, Al Marwah, Al Faisaliyah and Al Rabwah in the centre; Al Aziziyah, Al Rehab and Al Samer in the east; Al Balad, Al Sharafiyah and Al Baghdadiyah; and Al Hamdaniyah, Al Sawari, Al Sanabel and Al Jamiah in the south.

Will duties be charged on your belongings in the UAE?

Used household belongings are not usually treated like commercial goods, but customs assesses each shipment on its own and asks for proof that the contents are personal and that you are a national or resident of the UAE. The main papers:

• A copy of the receiver’s passport and Emirates ID.
• A copy of a valid UAE residence for non-nationals.
• A numbered packing list with the contents of every carton and item.
• An official authorisation for the customs broker.
• Avoid shipping new boxed appliances in quantity, as they may be treated as goods.

We tell you plainly what may delay a shipment: medicines, new appliances in quantity, and a vague packing list. We arrange their papers before the road.

GCC-origin goods and the customs exemption

Saudi Arabia and the UAE are members of the GCC customs union, and goods of GCC national origin enter the UAE free of customs duties when accompanied by a valid certificate of origin. Goods of foreign origin are treated under the customs union rules and may attract duties or UAE VAT depending on their situation. So we ask traders for the commercial invoice, certificate of origin and packing list before loading.

Documents required for shipping to the UAE

• A copy of the sender’s ID or iqama and passport.
• A copy of the receiver’s passport and Emirates ID.
• A numbered packing list.
• For goods: a commercial invoice, certificate of origin and packing list.
• For cars: the export certificate from the traffic department and the purchase invoice.
• An authorisation for the clearing company in the UAE.

What happens at the border?

We send copies of the papers to the broker before the truck arrives, so preparation starts before it joins the queue. Al Batha is one of the busiest truck crossings, so we book the departure to avoid the peak as far as possible.

Do you need insurance?

If your shipment includes a car, expensive appliances or furniture that is hard to replace, insurance is worth its small cost. It is calculated as a percentage of the declared value, and we document the items’ condition with photos during packing.

What cannot be shipped to the UAE

• Flammable materials, gas cylinders and fuel.
• Weapons, ammunition and anything resembling them.
• Narcotics and restricted medicines without a prescription and permission.
• Seeds and plants without agricultural permits.
• Counterfeit goods and anything banned under either country’s rules.
• Loose lithium batteries by air.
