Shipping from Dubai
to Mexico.

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.

Sea freight to Mexico takes about 31 days into Veracruz on the Gulf and about 35 into Manzanillo on the Pacific, on current schedules. Air freight to Mexico takes 2 to 5 days. The four day difference at sea matters far less than the inland leg, which is what should decide the coast. We give you a date in writing when we quote.

It depends where the goods are going, not which sailing is shorter. Veracruz for Mexico City, Puebla and the east. Manzanillo for Guadalajara, the Bajio and the west. Altamira for Monterrey and the north east. Picking the quicker sailing and then trucking a thousand kilometres is the expensive mistake on this lane.

It is Mexico’s national importer register, held by the tax authority. A commercial importer normally needs an active entry in it, and if it has lapsed a perfectly ordinary shipment cannot be entered. It sits with your buyer rather than with the cargo, so we confirm it is active before you book.

A NOM is a Mexican product standard. Many goods have to demonstrate compliance with one, and it is about the product itself rather than the shipping paperwork, so it cannot be sorted out at the border. That makes it the requirement most likely to catch an exporter out. Send us the product and the HS code and we will check before you book.

It depends on what you send, how big it is, and where in Mexico it is going. We do not publish prices because every shipment is different. Sea freight to Mexico is priced per container when you fill one, and per cubic metre when you share one. Air freight to Mexico is priced on weight or size, whichever is greater. Send us the details and we send you a price in writing, usually the same day.

All of them. Mexico City, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Puebla, Tijuana, Leon, Ciudad Juarez, Queretaro, Merida, San Luis Potosi, Toluca, Aguascalientes, Veracruz, Hermosillo, Chihuahua and Cancun. Just give us the address and we bring it to the door.

Sometimes, and it needs checking against the specific vehicle rather than a general rule. Mexico has a permit process for imported used vehicles, and the current decree, extended through 30 November 2026, includes a route covering vehicles whose model year is ten years before the year of import. That is not an open rule allowing any ten year old car from Dubai: eligibility depends on the decree route, the vehicle origin, the identification number and the importer’s circumstances. Send us the make, model, year and chassis number and we will check before you buy.

Yes. We handle freight forwarding to Mexico door to door. We collect the goods in Dubai, move them, clear them through customs, and bring them to your address. You deal with one company for the whole journey.

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 Veracruz. 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.

Yes, at both ends. We handle customs clearance in Dubai and customs clearance in Mexico. You do not need to find your own clearing agent.

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. That helps when you are buying from several suppliers and want everything to travel in one container.

Yes. We move project cargo to Mexico as well. Big, heavy items go in open top or flat rack containers, or loose on the ship. Altamira and Lazaro Cardenas both handle industrial cargo. Send us the size and weight and the delivery city and we will work out the best way to move it.

Yes. We move full house moves and part loads to Mexico, including Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey. We pack, collect, move and deliver, and we handle the customs clearance so your things are not waiting on paperwork.

You may. Qualifying Mexican nationals returning home and foreigners establishing permanent residence can import eligible used household effects under the menaje de casa procedure. A vehicle is not treated as ordinary household effects and is handled under the vehicle rules instead. Tell us your situation and we will explain what to expect.

Both serve the same metropolitan area. Mexico City International is the major gateway. Felipe Angeles is an important cargo airport and can be less congested for freight. We compare both when the timing is tight and tell you which is quicker on the day.
