Looking for overseas car shipping companies? Here is the practical picture for Saudi Arabia — real costs, timelines and requirements — and Masar handles the whole process for you.
Context before quotes: Freight into Saudi Arabia moves by sea to Jeddah Islamic Port and King Abdulaziz Port Dammam (China 18–35 days, Europe 14–22, India 10–18), by air to Riyadh/Jeddah/Dammam in 2–5 days door-to-door, and by road from the GCC in 1–3 days. Customs clearance adds 1–3 working days with certificates ready.
Indicative 2026 rates: 20ft container from China $1,300–2,600, LCL $25–60/CBM, air cargo $2–6/kg, Dubai–Riyadh truck SAR 3,500–6,000. All-in landed cost — freight, port charges, duty 5%, VAT 15% — is the only number worth comparing.
