Sea freight from Yiwu, China to Saudi Arabia

If your goods fill most of a container, a full container (FCL) is usually cheaper and simpler. For smaller volumes, LCL lets you pay only for the cubic metres your cargo occupies, with extra consolidation and devanning steps.

Where possible we price both so you compare the total cost to Saudi Arabia, not just the freight.

Main container ports in Saudi Arabia include Jeddah, Dammam. The right port of arrival depends on the delivery city and the services available at booking.

In Saudi Arabia many products need conformity certificates issued through the SABER platform, while food, cosmetics and medical devices fall under the Food and Drug Authority. GCC countries apply conformity schemes to some product groups, such as the Gulf conformity mark (G-Mark) for toys and certain low-voltage electrical goods, plus national requirements in each country. Check your product's requirements before buying.

This is general guidance and may change. Confirm current requirements with the authorities or a customs broker in your country.

• Type and description of the goods
• Approximate total weight
• Carton dimensions or total volume (CBM)
• Number of cartons or pieces
• Destination city and country
• Whether you need clearance and delivery, or shipping to the port/airport only

The quote scope depends on the agreement and destination: it may cover shipping to the arrival port or airport only, shipping with customs clearance, or delivery to your address where available. Every written quote states exactly what is included and who pays customs duties and taxes in the destination country.
