Shipping from Dubai
to Marshall Islands.
We ship from Dubai and from anywhere in the UAE to the Marshall Islands by sea and by air. We carry business and personal cargo. Majuro reaches Jebel Ali on a single transhipment, which makes this the shortest and the least complicated of the small Pacific lanes we run.
Overview
Sea and air freight
to Marshall Islands.
Shipping from Dubai to the Marshall Islands takes about 37 days by sea, and about 7 days by air. Current route planning puts Jebel Ali to Majuro at around 37 days with one transhipment, which is notably simpler than most small Pacific destinations, where cargo changes ship twice. Majuro is the main international cargo gateway and serves the atoll and national distribution. Air cargo flies into Marshall Islands International with connections. We could not verify a universal pre-shipment permit, so ordinary cargo clears on the customs documentation, while plant, fruit, animal and similar goods can need quarantine certification. We deliver to Majuro, Ebeye, Kwajalein, Jaluit and the outer atolls.

Ports and gateways
Ports and airports
we ship to from Dubai.
Every bill of lading carries two ports: where the cargo loads, and where it discharges. We load at Jebel Ali or another UAE port. For the Marshall Islands we fly into one airport. The discharge point and the clearance point are decided by different things, so they are worth choosing separately.
POLPort of loading
We collect anywhere in the UAE, free zones included, and load at whichever of these eight suits the cargo.

PODPort of discharge
The right one is whichever leaves the shortest inland leg to your delivery address. On a long lane that leg is a shipment in its own right, so it is planned rather than assumed.

How cargo reaches Majuro
Shipping from Dubai to Majuro takes about 37 days on current route planning, with one transhipment rather than the two most small Pacific lanes need. It is the main international cargo gateway and the redistribution point for the outer atolls. Sea freight is priced per container on a full load and per cubic metre on a shared one.

How cargo reaches Marshall Islands International Airport
Air freight from Dubai to Marshall Islands International connects through a Pacific hub, subject to commodity, space, screening and local cargo handling approval. It serves Majuro, and hold capacity on the island leg is small, so weight and size are checked before booking. Times vary from flight to flight, so we confirm the days when we quote. Majuro by sea is the alternative for volume. The quote separates uplift, connection, screening, terminal, customs, biosecurity and final delivery charges.

Before you ship
Import rules
for the Marshall Islands.
We could not verify a universal pre-shipment permit for the Marshall Islands. Ordinary cargo clears on the customs import documentation, which keeps the commercial side straightforward. Where it tightens is biosecurity: plant, fruit, animal and similar goods are subject to quarantine control and can require certification or approval, and that is the sort of thing that has to be arranged before shipment rather than argued about on arrival. So the question we ask first is what the cargo is, not who is receiving it. Send us the product and the HS code and we will tell you whether anything needs to be raised before the container is sealed.

Documentation
Documents you need
for the Marshall Islands.
These 8 cover most shipments to the Marshall Islands. The exact list depends on the commodity and its HS code, so send us both and we confirm what applies before the cargo is booked.
- 01Invoice showing what you paid for the goods
- 02Packing list showing what is inside
- 03Certificate of origin showing where the goods were made
- 04Bill of lading or air waybill, which is the shipping ticket
- 05Dubai export paper, which we do for you
- 06Customs import documentation
- 07Quarantine or agricultural certificate for plant, fruit or animal goods
- 08Commodity-specific permit where required
Get the paperwork right in Dubai and clearance at destination is routine. Fixing a document after arrival is slow, and storage accrues the whole time it takes.

Questions
Cargo to Marshall Islands
questions, answered.
The 15 we are asked most on the Dubai to Marshall Islands route. If yours is not here, send it with the commodity and we will answer it directly.
Do you offer movers and packers for a house move from Dubai to Marshall Islands?
Yes. Our movers and packers do the packing, wrapping and listing in Dubai, then we ship your furniture and household goods in a full container, or share one if you have less to send. The item by item list matters, because customs clear personal effects against it. Fuel, gas cylinders, paint, aerosols and loose batteries cannot travel, and we give you the full list before packing day.
How long does shipping from Dubai to the Marshall Islands take?
Sea freight takes about 37 days, and air freight takes about 7 days. Current route planning puts Jebel Ali to Majuro at around 37 days with one transhipment. That single relay is why this lane is quicker and less exposed than most small Pacific routes, which need two.
Why is this lane quicker than other Pacific islands?
Because the cargo changes ship once rather than twice. Every transhipment adds handling time and a connection that can be missed, so a one hub routing is both faster and more reliable. At about 37 days Majuro is the quickest small Pacific sailing we run.
Do I need an import permit for the Marshall Islands?
We could not verify a universal one, so ordinary cargo clears on the customs import documentation. Plant, fruit, animal and similar goods are subject to quarantine control and can need certification or approval, which has to be arranged before shipment. Send us the product and we will confirm.
How much does shipping from Dubai to the Marshall Islands cost?
It depends on what you send, how big it is, and whether it is staying on Majuro. We do not publish prices because every shipment is different. Sea freight is priced per container when you fill one, and per cubic metre when you share one. The domestic leg to an outer atoll is quoted as its own line. Send us the details.
Which places in the Marshall Islands do you deliver to?
Majuro, Ebeye, Kwajalein, Jaluit, Wotje, Mili, Arno, Ailinglaplap, Likiep, Enewetak, Maloelap and Namdrik. Everything beyond Majuro travels on a domestic service, so the delivery date there depends on that sailing rather than on our arrival.
Can you deliver to the outer atolls?
Yes. Cargo lands at Majuro and continues by domestic service. Those sailings set the delivery date, and they are not daily, so we confirm the schedule before quoting a date rather than estimating one. Ebeye and Kwajalein are the most common onward destinations.
Can you ship a car from Dubai to the Marshall Islands?
We can move the vehicle, but we could not verify current vehicle import eligibility or age rules for the Marshall Islands. Rather than guess, we confirm the position with the authorities before you buy. Send us the make, model, year and chassis number and we will check.
Is air freight worth it to the Marshall Islands?
For urgent cargo, yes. Sea is about 37 days and air about 7, so the gap is wide enough to justify it on anything time sensitive or high value. Air flies into Marshall Islands International at Majuro on connecting services.
Do you deliver door to door?
Yes. We handle freight forwarding to the Marshall Islands door to door. We collect the goods in Dubai, move them, clear them at Majuro and bring them to your address, including the atoll leg where one is needed.
Can I send a small shipment, or do I need a full container?
You can send as little as one box or one pallet. We put small shipments from different customers into one shared container. This is called LCL, or less than container load. Your goods load at Jebel Ali and come into Majuro. When you have more goods, you move up to your own full container, which is called FCL. We will tell you which one is cheaper.
Do you handle customs clearance in the Marshall Islands?
Yes, at both ends. We do customs clearance in Dubai and the import documentation at Majuro, along with quarantine certification where the cargo needs it.
Can you collect the goods from my supplier in Dubai?
Yes. We collect anywhere in Dubai, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi and the rest of the UAE. We can also hold your goods in warehousing and storage in Dubai until you are ready to ship, which is useful when you are waiting on a domestic sailing at the other end.
Can you move my household goods to the Marshall Islands?
Yes. We move full house moves and part loads. We could not verify a household-goods concession for the Marshall Islands, so we will not promise you relief we have not checked. Tell us your situation and we will confirm what applies.
Can you ship building materials and equipment?
Yes. We move project cargo to the Marshall Islands as well. Big, heavy items go in open top or flat rack containers, or loose on the ship. For anything continuing to an outer atoll, the domestic vessel sets the practical size limit, so send us the dimensions and the destination together.
