Who ships from Umm Al Quwain to Saudi Arabia?

Most of our customers in Umm Al Quwain are families living in villas in Al Salamah, Al Ramlah, Al Raas and Falaj Al Mualla, or employees who work in the neighbouring emirates and live here, and who are moving to the Kingdom for work or returning home. The emirate also has an industrial area and a small port, and we ship company goods from both.

How does your shipment travel from Umm Al Quwain to the Kingdom?

Stage	Details	Approx. time

Umm Al Quwain → Ghuwaifat	South through Sharjah, Dubai and Abu Dhabi	About eight hours
Crossing and clearance	Ghuwaifat, then Al Batha	Hours to a day
Al Batha → your Saudi city	Al Ahsa and Dammam first, then Riyadh and the west	Hours to two days

It’s further from Umm Al Quwain to the border than from Dubai, but the road is straightforward. We load during the day and set off at night, so we get through Dubai without the traffic and reach the border in the morning.

Jeddah, Makkah and Taif	Four to five working days

It takes a little longer than from Dubai because of the extra distance, and the time is counted from the day of loading.

Villas and family homes

Homes in Umm Al Quwain tend to be spacious, with majlis rooms, lots of bedrooms and storerooms. We survey by photos or a visit, estimate the volume accurately and choose the right trailer. The truck stops at your door, so loading is quicker than in a tower.

Arabic majlis seating and rugs

Many homes in Umm Al Quwain have Arabic floor seating, cushions and large rugs. We wrap the seating in plastic, roll, tie and wrap the rugs, and put coffee pots and dishes in divided cartons.

Furniture packing in Umm Al Quwain

We prepare your household furniture for a journey of more than a thousand kilometres:

• Majlis seating and cushions in plastic.
• Rugs rolled, tied and wrapped.
• Bedrooms and wardrobes dismantled and numbered.
• Sofas in plastic, then blankets.
• Dishes and coffee pots in divided cartons.
• Appliances in double-wall cartons.

Loading in Umm Al Quwain

The truck stops at your front door, we load the heavy items first, and we choose the truck to match the volume:

Truck type	Best for	How it is priced
Shared truck	Cartons, one or two rooms, a few appliances	Per kg, per item or per cubic metre
Private dyna or medium truck	A small flat or an office	One price for the whole trip

Refrigerated truck	Dates, food and sensitive medicines	Per pallet or per trip

The load is built in layers and strapped, and we send you a photo of it before the truck sets off.

Car shipping from Umm Al Quwain to Saudi Arabia

We collect the car from your home in Umm Al Quwain, clean it and photograph it, fit a protective cover, then load it onto an enclosed car carrier and secure it with straps.

The Kingdom allows the import of used cars no more than five years old under the current requirements, provided they meet Saudi specifications, with 5% customs duty and 15% VAT. These conditions can change, so we review your car’s details with the broker before booking. Its papers: the car’s ownership card, the export certificate and export plates from the Umm Al Quwain traffic department, the purchase invoice, and a copy of your passport and ID.

The customs exemption for used furniture in the Kingdom

ZATCA exempts personal effects and used household items brought in by a Saudi returning after living abroad, and those brought in by a foreigner arriving to live in the Kingdom for the first time, provided they’re used, for personal rather than commercial use, and arrive within six months of their owner. Cars aren’t covered by this exemption, and VAT is still due on anything the exemption doesn’t cover. Usually required:

• A copy of the Saudi national ID, or the Saudi iqama for residents.
• A copy of the passport.
• Proof of previous residence in the UAE, or of arriving for the first time.
• A numbered packing list with the contents of every carton and item.
• An authorisation for the customs broker through the FASAH platform.

New boxed appliances in quantity, however, may be treated as goods subject to duties and tax, and we’ll tell you before loading.

Goods from Umm Al Quwain to the Kingdom

We ship company goods from the Umm Al Quwain industrial area on pallets or in a full trailer, with their invoices and certificates of origin.

Documents required for shipping from Umm Al Quwain to Saudi Arabia

• A copy of the sender’s passport and Emirates ID or residence visa.
• A copy of the receiver’s Saudi national ID or iqama.
• A numbered packing list.
• For goods: a commercial invoice, certificate of origin and packing list, plus a conformity certificate through the SABER platform where needed.
• For cars: the ownership card and the export certificate.
• The broker’s authorisation through the FASAH platform.

Crossing from Ghuwaifat to Al Batha

The truck leaves the Ghuwaifat crossing once the UAE export papers are stamped, then enters the Al Batha crossing, the only land crossing between the two countries, where the broker files the Saudi customs declaration and the load is checked against the packing list. When the papers have been sent ahead, this usually takes a few hours, and the truck then carries on to your city. From Umm Al Quwain, we allow about eight hours to reach the crossing.

Delivery in Saudi cities

We deliver to Riyadh, Dammam, Al Ahsa, Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah and elsewhere, carrying the furniture inside, reassembling it and checking it with you.

Air freight from Umm Al Quwain to Saudi Arabia

Urgent parcels and documents go by air from Sharjah or Dubai airport to Saudi cities in one to two working days. It’s charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, which you can estimate with our volumetric weight calculator. Furniture and appliances are far cheaper by land and arrive only a few days later.

Cargo insurance

We recommend insuring cars, expensive appliances and antiques for a small percentage of their declared value, and we photograph your belongings before loading in every case, so you have a record to refer back to.

What cannot be shipped to the Kingdom

• Flammable materials, gas cylinders and fuel.
• Weapons, ammunition and anything resembling them.
