The seven emirates are the capital Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al-Khaimah, Sharjah and Umm al-Quwain.

What will shipping to the UAE cost me?
The final costs of your UAE shipping service will depend on a range of factors, like the area of the country that you’re moving to, your time-frame, the size of your load and the shipping method you are using. Some of our UAE shipping customers with lighter loads choose to share shipping containers and only cover the cost of the space they are using. If you have a bigger load, such as the contents of a large flat or a house to ship, you can opt for a 20ft or 40ft sole-use shipping container. You will be given an itemised quote before you agree to anything.

What items can be shipped to the UAE?
There are no real restrictions on what you can and can’t ship to the UAE, though some of the most common items include clothes, furniture, musical instruments, sports equipment, vehicles and antiques.
Which UAE shipping methods are available?
You can choose between shipping freight, air freight or a mixture of both. With prices being calculated by weight, air freight can be incredibly expensive, which is why many Movecorp UAE shipping customers choose to send a few priority essentials over by the air and get the rest of their load over by sea. It may be possible to reduce air freight costs by picking your items up from the airport yourself.
