The road from Oman to the UAE
Oman borders the UAE directly, so there is no transit country. Trucks use the crossing nearest to the route: Khatmat Malaha towards Fujairah and the east coast, Al Wajajah–Hatta towards Dubai, or Mezyad towards Al Ain and Abu Dhabi.
Full trailer or container
- Full trailer (FTL): the whole truck for your goods, loaded at the supplier in Oman and delivered to your warehouse in the UAE.
- Container by road: a sealed container moved by truck across the border.
- Smaller loads: tell us the volume and we advise the best option.
Documents and UAE customs
The load travels with the commercial invoice, the packing list, a certificate of origin and the road consignment note (CMR).
Goods of GCC national origin enter the UAE free of customs duty with a certificate of GCC origin. Goods made outside the GCC are usually subject to customs duty, and import VAT of 5% applies. The receiver in the UAE needs a customs importer code; we confirm the exact charges in the quote.
How to get a quote
Send us the goods, the weight and volume, whether you need a full trailer or a container, the supplier’s city in Oman and the delivery address in the UAE. We reply with the price, the route and what is included.
