Key Information for Moving to Dubai
-
The cost of moving from the UK to Dubai depends on the size of your shipment and your chosen service. Smaller moves are usually sent in a shared (groupage) container, while full households may require a dedicated 20ft or 40ft container.
-
Prices generally start from around £235 for 5 boxes, £1,375 for a 1-bedroom move, and up to £7,315+ for larger homes or shipments including a vehicle.

Sea freight is the most popular and cost-effective way to move your belongings to Dubai, making it ideal for larger or heavier shipments. Air freight offers a faster alternative for smaller or time-sensitive consignments, though at a higher cost. Typical transit times range from 5 to 10 weeks, depending on the shipping method.

We provide a complete door-to-door removals service, managing everything from export packing and shipping to customs clearance and delivery to your new home.

Household Removals to Dubai from the UK FAQs
Find answers to our most commonly asked questions about moving to Dubai using our UAE removals service.
Before You Move
How Long Do Removals to Dubai from the UK take?
Removal and shipping times to Dubai can vary. Shipping groupage in a shared container takes longer than shipping a full container load, as different customers’ shipments need to be consolidated to fill one container.
Sea freight times from the UK to Dubai are around 5-7 weeks for a full container load (FCL) or 7-10 weeks for a shared container/groupage service (Sometimes called less than container load – LCL). In addition, you will also need to allow added time for customs clearance.
Usually, it will take our professional packers 2-4 days to pack and load a container.
| Port | Full Container Load (FCL) | Shared Container (Groupage) |
|---|---|---|
| Dubai | 5-7 weeks | 7-10 weeks |
Removals Quote Quote For Shipping Boxes / Luggage
NB: You will need to allow additional time (approx. 10-15 days) for customs clearance and final delivery to your destination.
How Long Does Air Freight Shipping to Dubai Take from the UK?
For sending excess baggage or boxes to Dubai by air freight, allow approximately 3 – 10 days.
Additional services include sea freight. However, your goods will take longer to arrive.
How Much Do International Removals to Dubai Cost in 2025?
The cost of removals to Dubai from the UK can vary considerably as it depends on many factors including where in the UK you are moving from, the volume and type of household goods you are sending, current exchange rates and your final destination address. However, as we specialise in removals from the UK to Dubai and have years of experience, we are able to offer the best prices.
These quotes are for a full removals service including packing and door-to-door delivery. Obviously, the exact cost will depend on many factors including the current exchange rate.
We recommend you use our online removal cost calculator or speak to one of our consultants for a more accurate estimate cost of the move to the Emirates.
When is payment due and will I have to pay a deposit?
Our payment terms are 7 days before removal day and we require a £350 deposit when booking your removal.
Are there additional charges?
All of our estimates are quoted as a door-to-door service. This service includes the standard custom clearance as well as other related charges. All related charges information will be clearly listed in your removals quote and explained to you by your Account Manager.
Do I Need Shipment Protection Cover or Maritime Removals Insurance to Dubai?

What Items are prohibited or restricted to Ship to Dubai?
Can I Ship my Car, Motorbike or Other Vehicle?
We are able to help you ship vehicles to Dubai, including cars, motorcycles, motorhomes and caravans. They can be shipped in the same container as your household goods or separately.
Left-Hand Drive Requirement: Dubai requires that all vehicles must be left-hand drive (unless they meet specific requirements). Unfortunately, right-hand drive vehicles (common in the UK) cannot be imported for the most part.
You may be able to register a right-hand drive vehicle that is 30 years or older as a classic car, and it will then be eligible to drive in Dubai.
There are a number of factors you need to consider when importing cars into Dubai, so we suggest you speak to one of our advisers or visit our Dubai vehicle shipping page for more information.

If required, we can also arrange storage facilities of your household goods and personal effects in Dubai whilst you arrange your new home. Once you’re ready our local movers will be able to deliver your belongings.
