Shipping to Oman from the first line:

  • Land: the main route for furniture and goods, on a shared or private truck.
  • The Empty Quarter road: links the Kingdom to Oman directly without passing through a third country.
  • Air: for documents and urgent parcels in one to three days.
  • GCC-origin goods: duty-free with a valid certificate of origin.
  • Cars: on an enclosed carrier; a private car must be under seven years old.

The shipment’s route from Saudi Arabia to Oman

Stage Details Approx. time
Collection and packing At your home in any Saudi city One day
The road to the Empty Quarter crossing From about 750 km from Al Ahsa to about 1,900 km from Jeddah One to three days
Crossing and clearance Empty Quarter, then Ramlat Khaylah Hours
Crossing → your address Ibri, then Muscat and the other wilayats One day

Since the Empty Quarter road opened, land shipping from the Kingdom to Oman has become much shorter, as the truck crosses the desert directly instead of going round through the UAE. The UAE route remains an option for some addresses in Buraimi, North Al Batinah and Musandam.

Which crossing does your shipment from Saudi Arabia use?

Route Crossing Usually suits Notes
Empty Quarter road Saudi Empty Quarter crossing → Omani Ramlat Khaylah crossing Most shipments to Muscat, Al Dakhiliyah, Al Dhahirah and Salalah The Saudi road to the crossing is about 564 km from the Al Batha road junction through the desert
Via the UAE Al Batha → Ghuwaifat, then the UAE–Oman crossings Some shipments to Buraimi, North Al Batinah and Musandam Needs extra transit papers; we use it when it suits the address better

We choose the route by your city in the Kingdom and your wilayat in Oman: the Empty Quarter road for most shipments to Muscat, Al Dakhiliyah, Al Dhahirah and Dhofar, and the UAE route when it suits an address in the north better.

Shipping to Oman by your region in the Kingdom

Collection region Approx. distance to Muscat Approx. time
Al Ahsa About 1,200 km Two to three working days
Dammam, Khobar and Jubail About 1,350 km Two to three working days
Riyadh and Al Kharj About 1,400 km Three to four working days
Qassim and Hail About 1,700 km Three to five working days
Madinah About 2,200 km Four to six working days
Jeddah and Taif About 2,300 km Four to six working days
Makkah About 2,200 km Four to six working days

The closer your city is to the start of the Empty Quarter road in the Eastern Province, the shorter the time and the lower the cost. Either way your belongings stay on the same truck from your home to your door in Oman.

  • Offices and companies: computers, files, office furniture and light project equipment.
  • Personal belongings: clothes, books and toys in numbered cartons.
  • Commercial goods: by the pallet or the full truck, with a certificate of origin.
  • Dates and food: in regular or refrigerated trucks.
  • Online-store products: with their invoices.
  • Cars and motorcycles: on enclosed carriers.
  • Parcels and documents: by land on the shared truck, or by air.

Packing furniture in Saudi Arabia

Furniture packing from Saudi Arabia to Oman

The road to Oman is one of the longest land routes from the Kingdom and crosses the Empty Quarter, so we pack for a long journey:

  • Sofas and majlis seating: plastic, then moving blankets.
  • Wardrobes and beds: dismantled, with screws numbered in bags.
  • Fridges and washing machines: emptied, dried, doors secured.
  • Screens: boxes lined with foam.
  • Glass, mirrors and antiques: protective frames or wooden crates.
  • Dishes: each piece wrapped on its own in divided cartons.

Loading in Saudi Arabia and the truck type

We build the load in layers: heavy at the bottom, fragile on top, gaps filled and straps tight, and the truck is closed after the load is checked against the packing list.

Loading the truck from Saudi Arabia to Oman
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 shared truck is cheaper for anyone with few items, a private truck is faster and loaded in a single day, and a refrigerated truck is for dates and sensitive food in the desert heat.

Car shipping from Saudi Arabia to Oman

We collect your car from your home, clean it and photograph it from every side, fit a protective cover, then load it onto an enclosed car carrier that keeps the Empty Quarter’s sand off it.

Car shipping from Saudi Arabia to Oman

Oman has conditions for importing used cars from GCC countries, set by the Royal Oman Police, including that a private car is less than seven years old, and that an export certificate issued by the car’s registration authority in its home country is presented instead of a clearance certificate. These conditions may be amended, so we review your car’s details with the broker in Oman 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 Oman for a visit and bring it back, that is an ordinary crossing with valid insurance covering Oman and the car’s papers, and needs no shipping.

Air freight from Saudi Arabia to Oman

Air freight from Saudi Arabia to Oman goes from the airports of Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and Madinah to Muscat International Airport, or Salalah Airport for Dhofar shipments, and usually takes one to three working days.

Air freight from Saudi Arabia to Oman

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 commercial goods to Oman

For traders and companies we ship food, dates, personal-care products, appliances, spare parts, building materials and online-store products from the Kingdom to Oman. We stack the goods on wrapped pallets, prepare the commercial invoice, certificate of origin and packing list, and ship on a shared, full or refrigerated truck.

Delivery across every governorate of Oman

We deliver to Muscat, North and South Al Batinah, Al Dakhiliyah, Al Dhahirah, Al Buraimi, Al Sharqiyah, Dhofar and Al Wusta, to homes, flats, offices and warehouses. The crew unloads the furniture, carries it inside and reassembles it if that is part of the agreement, and you check the items against the packing list with us before signing.

Will duties be charged on your belongings in Oman?

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

  • A copy of the receiver’s passport and Omani ID card or residence card.
  • Proof of moving to live or work in Oman for non-Omanis, such as a work visa or lease.
  • 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 Oman are members of the GCC customs union, and goods of GCC national origin enter Oman 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 Omani 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 Oman

  • A copy of the sender’s ID or iqama and passport.
  • A copy of the receiver’s passport and ID or residence card in Oman.
  • 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 Oman.

What happens at the border?

We send copies of the papers to the broker before the truck arrives, so preparation starts before it reaches the border. This matters at a remote desert crossing, where anything missing means a long wait. After release the truck continues to your address.

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 Oman

  • Flammable materials, gas cylinders and fuel.
  • Weapons, ammunition and anything resembling them.
  • Narcotics, psychotropic substances, and medicines without a prescription and permission.
  • Counterfeit goods and anything banned under either country’s rules.
  • Fresh food and meat without health certificates.
  • Loose lithium batteries by air.

Tips before shipping to Oman

  • Have the receiver’s Omani ID or residence card copy ready before loading.
  • Do not ship new boxed appliances in quantity with household furniture, as they may be treated as goods.
  • Carry medicines, gold and important documents with you.
  • Make sure your car is under seven years old before you ship it.
  • Ask for a refrigerated truck for dates and food in summer.
  • Empty and dry the fridge and washing machine the day before loading.
