What to know about moving to UAE
Every destination has its own customs rules, required paperwork, and shipping considerations. UAE is no exception. The companies in our network handle the details so you can focus on the bigger picture: settling in, finding a home, and starting your new chapter.
Common shipping options to UAE
- Sea freight (container): The most common option for full home moves. Cost-effective for large volumes, with transit times of 4–8 weeks depending on origin.
- Air freight: Faster (3–10 days) but significantly more expensive. Best for essentials, valuables, or time-sensitive shipments.
- Groupage / shared container: A great middle ground for smaller moves. You share container space with other shipments going to UAE.
Documents you'll likely need
- Valid passport and visa (or residency permit) for UAE
- Detailed inventory list of all items being shipped
- Proof of residence or employment in UAE
- Customs declaration forms specific to UAE
