Kuwaiti students and families in Madinah

Madinah has Kuwaiti students at the Islamic University and Taibah University, and families who live there for years. At graduation or on return, the shipment is usually books, personal belongings and medium-sized furniture. Books are heavier than they look, so we put them in small reinforced cartons and write each carton’s number and contents on it.

Books sometimes go through censorship review in Kuwait, so we list their general titles on the packing list to avoid delays.

Packing furniture in Madinah

  • Wardrobes and beds dismantled, with screws numbered.
  • Appliances in double-wall cartons, screens in padded boxes.
  • Dishes wrapped piece by piece.

Loading in Madinah and the truck type

We load the truck at your door, or move a few items to our warehouse for the shared truck. Heavy cartons such as books go at the bottom and fragile items on top.

Car shipping from Madinah to Kuwait

We collect your car from your home in Madinah, fit a protective cover, then load it onto an enclosed car carrier and secure it with straps and chocks.

Car shipping from Madinah to Kuwait

Kuwait has conditions for importing used cars, usually chiefly that a passenger car is no more than five years old, and that it is imported in the name of a Kuwaiti national or through a sponsoring entity for non-Kuwaitis, with customs duty charged as a percentage of the value set by the customs inspector. These conditions can change, so we send your car’s details to the broker in Kuwait before booking and tell you what applies to it. 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 Kuwait for a visit and bring it back, that is an ordinary crossing with valid GCC insurance and the car’s papers, and needs no shipping.

Air freight from Madinah to Kuwait

For parcels and documents that cannot wait, we send them by air from Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz Airport in Madinah, or via Jeddah or Riyadh depending on the next cargo flight to Kuwait International Airport, usually arriving in one to two working days including clearance.

Air freight from Madinah to Kuwait

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. Because Kuwait is close by road, the time difference between air and land is usually small, and land is far cheaper for furniture and appliances.

Shipping goods from Madinah to Kuwait

Madinah Ajwa and other dates, perfumes, gifts and packaged food are among the most common shipments from Madinah to Kuwait. We pack them in sealed cartons, prepare the GCC certificate of origin and ship them on the shared truck or a full truck.

Madinah districts we collect from

Al Aziziyah, Al Awali, Quba, Al Anabis, Sayed Al Shuhada, Al Khalidiyah, Al Uraid, Al Iskan, King Fahd, Al Difa, Al Jurf, East Harrah, West Harrah and Shuran, as well as Yanbu, Badr and AlUla.

What Kuwaiti customs asks for

Before the truck moves we make sure your file with the broker in Kuwait is complete, because one missing paper holds the truck at the crossing. Usually required:

  • A copy of the receiver’s passport and Kuwaiti civil ID.
  • A copy of a valid Kuwaiti residence for non-Kuwaitis.
  • A numbered packing list with the contents of every carton and item.
  • The receiver present, or an official authorisation for the broker.
  • Avoid shipping new boxed appliances in quantity, as they may be treated as goods.

It is best to carry medicines, gold and important documents with you and ship the rest with an accurate list. An accurate list is what lets clearance pass in hours.

GCC-origin goods and the customs exemption

Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are members of the GCC customs union, and goods of GCC national origin enter Kuwait free of customs duties when accompanied by a valid certificate of origin. Goods of foreign origin already cleared in the Kingdom are treated under the customs union rules and may attract duties in Kuwait 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 Kuwait

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

Clearance between the two crossings

At the Saudi crossing the export papers are stamped; at the Kuwaiti crossing the contents are checked against the list. Trucks sometimes queue before holidays and breaks, so we book the departure to avoid the peak as far as possible.

Protecting your belongings on the road

Good packing prevents most damage, and insurance covers what packing cannot. We offer it as a percentage of the shipment’s value and the choice is yours; either way, we photograph the important pieces before the truck is closed.

What cannot be shipped to Kuwait

  • Alcoholic drinks and pork products.
  • Weapons and ammunition, including antique ones.
  • Flammable materials, gas cylinders and fuel.
  • Medicines in quantity or without a prescription and Ministry of Health permission.
  • Walkie-talkies and anything banned under either country’s rules.
  • Loose lithium batteries by air.
