Market notice. Customs clearance typically adds 3–7 working days. Indicative market ranges, October 2026, in USD: port-to-port base freight, excluding war-risk and emergency surcharges, THC and local charges. Rates are elevated because of the Strait of Hormuz disruption, and several carriers have suspended Dammam and Jubail bookings, so most sea cargo currently moves via Jeddah or King Abdullah Port plus road.
Origin, not transit. Goods only transshipped in Singapore keep their original country of origin; the certificate of origin must reflect where they were made.
Chemicals and pharma. Need SDS sheets or SFDA registration as relevant.
Regional stock. Consolidating Asian suppliers in Singapore can reduce costs on LCL shipments.
Send the origin city, commodity, weight or volume and your Saudi hub. We quote within one working day.
We book space and arrange pickup from your supplier, or receive the cargo at the port under FOB.
Our clearance team files through FASAH and handles SABER and SFDA checks before arrival.
Released cargo moves straight into our domestic LTL and FTL network to your warehouse.
Mismatched details are the most common cause of clearance delays. We check the full set before your cargo ships.
Most regulated products need a Product Certificate (PCoC) and a Shipment Certificate (SCoC) on SABER. The SCoC must be issued before the customs declaration is filed, or cargo cannot clear.
Food, cosmetics, medical devices and pharmaceuticals need SFDA registration or a release permit. Alcohol, pork products and narcotics cannot be imported.
Send us your HS code and we'll check →Customs duty is charged on the CIF value. Most goods attract 5%, some are duty-free and some carry higher rates. VAT of 15% is then charged on CIF plus duty.
We confirm the exact duty rate for your HS code with your quote, so there are no surprises on arrival.
FOB (recommended): your supplier loads the vessel; we handle everything after. You control cost and timing.
EXW: we collect from the factory. Best when the supplier has no export experience.
CIF / CFR: the supplier books freight. Cheaper upfront, less control, higher destination charges.
DAP / DDP: delivered to your door. DAP quoted as standard; DDP case by case.
About 12–20 days by sea to Jeddah, plus customs clearance. Air from Changi takes 2–4 days.
