Why shipping from Qassim to Kuwait is direct:

• The truck leaves Qassim east to Hafar Al Batin without passing through Riyadh.
• The distance to Kuwait is about 750 km.
• Qassim dates in refrigerated trucks with certificates of origin.

The road from Qassim to Hafar Al Batin shortens the distance, so the shipment does not need to go south to Riyadh and back north. That is why shipping from Qassim takes about as long as from Riyadh.

Qassim dates to Kuwait

Qassim Sukkari is among the most requested dates in Kuwait, with its big selling seasons after the harvest and before Ramadan. Traders send it by the tonne to markets and families send it as gifts. We ship it in sealed cartons on pallets, on a refrigerated truck for large summer quantities, with the invoice, GCC certificate of origin and a health certificate if requested.

Qassim also sends the homes of families moving between the two countries, usually full homes needing a private truck.

Packing furniture in Qassim

Qassim homes are mostly villas and family houses with large majlis rooms and spacious kitchens:

• Majlis seating and sofas in plastic and blankets, rugs rolled and tied.
• Bedrooms dismantled, with each piece’s screws in a numbered bag.
• Large kitchen appliances emptied with doors secured.
• Dishes and coffee pots in divided cartons.
• Screens in padded boxes.

Loading in Qassim and the truck type

The truck comes to your door and is loaded in front of you, heavy at the bottom and fragile on top, with the load strapped down.

Truck type	Best for	How it is priced
Shared truck	Cartons, one or two rooms, a few appliances	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 and sensitive food	Per pallet or per trip
Enclosed car carrier	One or more cars	Per car, by size

A few items go on the shared truck with a mark and a number for each customer.

Car shipping from Qassim to Kuwait

We collect the car from your home in Buraidah, Unaizah or Ar Rass, fit a protective cover, then load it onto an enclosed car carrier and secure it.

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 Qassim to Kuwait

Air freight from Qassim to Kuwait goes via King Khalid Airport in Riyadh, where we take the parcel by road the same day to Kuwait International Airport, 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. In most cases furniture does not need air, as the truck arrives in a few days at a much lower cost.

Shipping goods from Qassim to Kuwait

Besides dates, Qassim traders send packaged dairy, packed vegetables, animal feed and consumer goods to Kuwait. We stack them on pallets, prepare their GCC papers and ship on a regular or refrigerated truck.

Cities we collect from in Qassim

Buraidah and districts such as Al Rayyan, Al Iskan, Al Safra, Al Nahdah and Al Khaleej; Unaizah; Ar Rass; Al Bukairiyah; Al Badai; Al Mithnab; Al Shimasiyah; Uyun Al Jiwa; Al Asyah; Al Nabhaniyah; and Riyadh Al Khabra.

Will duties be charged on your belongings in Kuwait?

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

• 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.

We tell you plainly what may delay a shipment: medicines in quantity, a large number of books, and new appliances. These are not usually banned, but they need review, so we arrange their papers before the road.

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.

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. After inspection and release the truck continues to your address, and we tell you when it will arrive.

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 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.
