The permanent-return file for Moroccans in Riyadh
Many Moroccans in Riyadh ship their homes on permanent return and benefit from the exemption on used belongings. The main points we flag: belongings must enter in one or at most two shipments, the inventory must be dated and signed by you, and appliances are accepted at one of each type. So we put the whole home in a single container whenever possible.
Packing furniture in Riyadh homes

- Large screens in dedicated padded boxes.
- Bookcases and units dismantled with numbered pieces.
- Sofas in plastic then blankets.
- Appliances in double-wall cartons, with their brand recorded in the inventory.
Loading in Riyadh
At villas the container stands on its truck at the door, is loaded and sealed in front of you, then heads to Jeddah port. For flats we move your belongings to our warehouse and load the container there.

Car shipping from Riyadh to Morocco
We collect the car from your home, fit a protective cover, roll it into the container on dollies and secure it with chocks and straps.

Morocco allows the import of used cars with customs duties that vary by the car’s age, value and engine size, and a retired Moroccan returning permanently may benefit from a large reduction on these duties under the rules in force. So we review your case before booking. The car’s 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, and copies of your passport and iqama.
Delivery in Morocco
After clearance in Casablanca or Tangier your belongings head to your address, in Casablanca itself or Rabat, Marrakech, Fes or elsewhere, and the crew carries the furniture inside and reassembles it.

Air freight from Riyadh to Morocco
From King Khalid International Airport to Mohammed V Airport within three to five working days, for documents and small parcels. It’s charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight.
Riyadh districts we collect from
Al Malqa, Al Narjis, Al Yasmin, Al Arid and Al Sahafa in the north; Al Olaya, Al Sulimaniyah and Al Malaz in the centre; Al Rawdah, Al Naseem, Al Rayyan and Al Sulay in the east; Al Suwaidi, Dhahrat Laban and Tuwaiq in the west; Al Aziziyah, Al Shifa and Al Hazm in the south; plus Al Kharj, Diriyah and Al Muzahmiyah.
Permanent return to Morocco and customs
A Moroccan living in the Kingdom who returns to settle in Morocco can usually bring in used furniture, appliances and personal effects free of duties, under conditions Moroccan customs usually apply as follows:
- A change-of-residence certificate, or a sworn statement legalised by the Moroccan consulate in Riyadh or Jeddah.
- Proof of your residence and work in the Kingdom, such as the iqama or employment contract.
- A detailed inventory, dated and signed by you.
- Household appliances are usually accepted at one per type, and other items have a value ceiling.
- Belongings are imported in one or at most two shipments, through the same customs office, within a set period of the certificate date.
These conditions may be amended, so we write the inventory in Arabic and French to match what you’ll submit, and review the papers with the broker in Morocco before the container is closed.
Documents required
- A copy of the sender’s passport and the receiver’s national ID card in Morocco.
- A numbered inventory in Arabic and French.
- The change-of-residence certificate for permanent returnees.
- A commercial invoice and certificate of origin for goods.
- Car export papers if any, and the bill of lading, which we issue at loading.
Do you need insurance?
If your shipment includes a car, expensive appliances or furniture that’s hard to replace, insurance is worth its small cost. It’s calculated as a percentage of the declared value, and we document your belongings’ condition with photos during packing.
Prohibited and restricted items
- Flammable materials, gas cylinders and fuel.
- Weapons, ammunition and anything resembling them.
- Medicines in commercial quantities or without a prescription.
