Frequently asked questions about shipping to Dubai

How much does it cost to ship a container to Dubai?+
A 20-ft container typically costs between $1,500 and $2,600 and a 40-ft between $2,600 and $3,300. The final price depends on the origin port, the type of cargo and whether you ship a full or a shared container; when you request a quote we confirm it within one business day with the full breakdown.
What documents do I need to ship to Dubai?+
Three core documents: the bill of lading (BL), the commercial invoice and the packing list. Some goods also require an import license or permit and a certificate of origin. We prepare them for you and handle customs clearance at destination, so no missing paper holds your cargo.
FCL or LCL: which one suits me?+
FCL (full container load) gives you the equipment exclusively: more control, less cargo handling and a direct departure; the choice for large or delicate loads. LCL (consolidated cargo) shares the container with other shipments and you only pay for the volume you use: the economical alternative for smaller loads. Not sure? Tell us what you are shipping and we recommend the format with the best total cost.
Can I ship household goods or a full move to Dubai?+
Yes. We move personal items, household goods and full relocations; a 20-ft container is the usual format and, for smaller volumes, consolidated cargo cuts the cost. Customs and documentation are handled door to door.
Which Dubai ports do you ship to?+
We serve Jebel Ali, with customs clearance handled at each one and inland delivery coordinated to the final destination if you need it.
