IMPORT & EXPORT COMPLIANCE
Customs Clearance in Saudi Arabia — Jeddah, Riyadh & Dammam
ShipVerge clears your import and export shipments at Saudi Arabia’s three main entry points, handling FASAH single-window filing, ZATCA duty assessment and HS code classification so your goods keep moving instead of sitting at port — on one account, with no lock-in.
Customs Handled the Way FASAH and ZATCA Actually Require It
Every commercial shipment entering Saudi Arabia has to pass through the Kingdom’s FASAH single-window customs platform and be assessed under ZATCA’s duty and VAT rules before it can leave the port. ShipVerge’s brokers prepare and file that paperwork for you — HS code classification, commercial invoices, certificates of origin and any product-specific permits — so a shipment doesn’t stall on a documentation error.
- Jeddah Islamic Port & JED Airport — commercial, containerized and express cargo clearance
- King Abdulaziz Port, Dammam & DMM Airport — industrial machinery and GCC land-transfer clearance
- Riyadh Dry Port & RUH Airport — fast-turnaround clearance for corporate and e-commerce imports
- HS code classification and paperwork coordination for general cargo, electronics and equipment shipments
- Handoff straight into our domestic LTL network once your shipment is released

Customs Clearance FAQ
Jeddah Islamic Port and King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED), King Abdulaziz Port and King Fahd International Airport in Dammam (DMM), and Riyadh Dry Port and King Khalid International Airport (RUH).
Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, and a certificate of origin. Certain goods (food, medical, electronics with radio frequency components) need an additional SASO or SFDA permit — we’ll flag that as soon as you tell us the commodity.
A wrong HS code is the single biggest cause of clearance delays and demurrage charges. We classify your commodity against the Saudi customs tariff before filing, and flag anything ambiguous with you before submission — not after the shipment is already sitting at port.
Yes. Once your shipment clears customs at any of the three hubs, we hand it directly into our domestic LTL network for last-mile delivery anywhere in the Kingdom, on the same invoice.
