Freight gateways in the UAE

Sea freight can be routed through Jebel Ali in Dubai or Khalifa Port in Abu Dhabi, while Dubai and Abu Dhabi provide the principal air-cargo gateways. Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah are important delivery markets, so the final emirate, delivery terms and local handling requirements should be established before booking.

Air, sea and cargo planning

Air freight can suit time-sensitive commercial cargo, while sea freight can include FCL containers or LCL consolidation where suitable and available. We review cargo type, dimensions, weight, handling needs, origin, carrier availability and destination documentation before recommending an option. Transit time depends on the chosen service, schedule, connections, customs processing and final delivery.

UAE cargo and delivery planning

Machinery, equipment, textiles, retail stock and other commercial goods can require different handling and import records. We align the UAE gateway and onward plan with the consignee location and shipment details; service availability is confirmed during quotation.

Origin planning for cargo to the UAE

EZ Shipping is UK-based and can coordinate cargo from the UK as well as other international origins. For shipping from the UK to the UAE, we review the collection point and available UK departure gateways. For other origins, we assess the local collection, export requirements and suitable connection to the destination.
