Located between Europe and the Far East, the United Arab Emirates has played a vital role in helping it develop into a global business hub, with Dubai being the focal point for much of the region's economic activity and trade. Help is just around the corner if you want to ship your goods to the Middle East.

 

VIPUTRANS wants to make importing from China to the United Arab Emirates as simple and straightforward as possible for your company. For this reason, we have collected relevant information about shipping from China to UAE on this page, including cost, transit time, port information, etc., to give you a more detailed understanding of shipping from China to UAE.

Less than Container Load (LCL)

LCL shipping means that your cargo will be given space in a shared container that carries consignments of other shippers. The advantage is that you only have to pay for the space that your freight occupies, not the whole container. If you’re planning on moving small shipments from China to UAE, then LCL shipping might be the most affordable option.

Full Container Load (FCL)

FCL shipping means paying for the rental and transportation of a shipping container from China to the UAE for your exclusive use at a flat rate. This might be cheaper than LCL, especially if you are transporting large, heavy goods.
