FAQs
Generally, when shipping from Dubai to the UK, air freight can take 3-7 working days for delivery, while sea freight may take up to 4 weeks. It’s important to note that unforeseen external environmental factors beyond our control may occasionally affect these timelines. Rest assured, if any such circumstances arise, we’ll keep you promptly updated on the situation.
Full Container Load (FCL): When you have a substantial amount of goods, you can reserve an entire container for your shipment, opting for an FCL service. This means you’re charged per container, rather than by the cubic meter. Additionally, you can generally expect quicker delivery as the entire container is transported directly from the source to your desired destination.
Less than Container Load (LCL): Conversely, if you don’t have enough goods to fill an entire container, you can utilize an LCL service. Here, the cost is determined by the amount of space your shipment occupies. With LCL, you only pay for the portion of the container that your goods take up, rather than the entire container.
Your choice between ocean freight and air freight will be determined by your specific shipping requirements. If swift delivery is of utmost importance, air freight is the preferred choice as it ensures a quicker arrival of your goods. However, if you’re shipping multiple containers from Dubai to the UK, opting for ocean freight would likely be more cost-effective.
Our experienced teams specializing in both air and ocean freight are dedicated to selecting the most suitable carrier in accordance with our client’s budget and time constraints. Feel free to reach out to us, and they’ll be more than happy to provide you with expert advice.
When shipping your goods, there may be a set of documents to complete, which could include a Certificate of Origin. Rest assured, our customs agents are available around the clock to either guide you through the documentation process or handle the paperwork on your behalf, ensuring full compliance.
