Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to ship from China to Saudi Arabia?
Current rates for shipping from China to Saudi Arabia start at USD 48.15/KG via Heavy Cargo – Class A Furniture. For 300 KG, the estimated total is approximately USD 14,445, with all duties paid under DDP. Final landed cost depends on the VAT 15%; duty 5–15% (some goods up to 25%) applied by Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA).
What duties and taxes apply when importing into Saudi Arabia?
Imports into Saudi Arabia are assessed by Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA). The applicable regime is: VAT 15%; duty 5–15% (some goods up to 25%). The duty-free / de-minimis position is SAR 1,000. Under our DDP service these charges are pre-paid and included in the per-KG price, so there is nothing to settle on arrival.
How long does shipping from China to Saudi Arabia take?
Door-to-door transit to Saudi Arabia: air freight 5–10 business days, sea LCL 30–50 days, sea FCL 28–45 days. On arrival, allow roughly 4–8 days of clearance/dwell at the gateway. All times include customs clearance under DDP.
What is DDP shipping to Saudi Arabia and what does it include?
DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) to Saudi Arabia means one all-inclusive price covering freight, the duty/tax due to Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA), and last-mile delivery to your door. The SAR 1,000 de-minimis position is handled for you, and there are no surprise charges at destination.
When is the busy season for shipping to Saudi Arabia?
Capacity to Saudi Arabia tightens around Sep–Nov, on top of the China-side surcharge windows of Chinese New Year (Jan/Feb) and Golden Week (early Oct). Booking 1–2 weeks earlier during these windows protects both space and rate.
How is chargeable weight calculated for Saudi Arabia shipments?
We compare actual gross weight against volumetric weight (L×W×H ÷ 6000 for air) and charge whichever is greater, rounded up to the next kilogram. For 300 KG this matters most when cargo is light but bulky — consolidating cartons can drop you into a cheaper bracket.
What documents are required for customs clearance in Saudi Arabia?
Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) typically requires: (1) commercial invoice with HS codes and declared value; (2) packing list with weights and dimensions; (3) bill of lading or air waybill; (4) certificate of origin (may lower duty); and (5) any product-specific certification (SABER / SASO certificate of conformity required). Under DDP we prepare and file these for you.
Which ports and airports handle China shipments to Saudi Arabia?
Sea freight to Saudi Arabia typically routes through Jeddah Islamic Port, King Abdulaziz (Dammam), Jubail, while air freight clears via JED (Jeddah), RUH (Riyadh), DMM (Dammam). We pick the gateway with the best onward delivery time to your final address and price it into the DDP rate.
