Emirati students and families in Madinah

Madinah has Emirati 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.

For a small shipment, the shared truck saves a great deal compared with a private one on a road this long.

Car shipping from Madinah to the UAE

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 the UAE

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 Madinah to the UAE

Urgent parcels and documents go by air from Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz Airport in Madinah, or via Jeddah or Riyadh depending on the next cargo flight to Dubai International, Abu Dhabi or Sharjah airport, usually arriving in one to two working days including clearance.

  • 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. A truck to the UAE arrives in a few days, so land is far cheaper for furniture and appliances.

Shipping goods from Madinah to the UAE

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

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 customs in the UAE asks for

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

  • 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.

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

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.

Clearance at the crossing

At Al Batha the export papers are stamped; at Ghuwaifat the contents are checked against the list. The queue sometimes grows before holidays and breaks, and we tell you when you book.

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 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.
