JEDDAH & DAMMAM — THE KINGDOM'S TWO-SEA GATEWAY

Saudi Arabia spans two coasts: Jeddah Islamic Port and King Abdullah Port on the Red Sea face Europe and Africa, while King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam on the Arabian Gulf faces Asia and the GCC. Together with the air gateways of Jeddah, Riyadh and Dammam, they connect the Kingdom's industrial base — petrochemicals, plastics, metals and agriculture — to every major market.

From Saudi Arabia, sea freight reaches Turkey in 6–10 days via Suez, the UAE and India in under a week from Dammam, and Northern Europe in around three weeks; air cargo reaches Istanbul in 1–2 days; and road freight links the Kingdom to the GCC and the Levant in 1–2 days. Canxansa manages end-to-end shipments from Saudi factories and free zones — customs, freight and last-mile delivery under a single point of contact.

Common Questions

FREIGHT FROM
SAUDI ARABIA — FAQ.

What is the fastest way to ship from Saudi Arabia to Turkey?

Air freight from Jeddah (JED), Riyadh (RUH) or Dammam (DMM) to Istanbul is the fastest option — typically 1–2 days door-to-door. Sea freight from Jeddah Islamic Port to Mersin or Istanbul takes 6–10 days via the Red Sea and Suez Canal and is the most economical mode for large volumes. Transit times are indicative and depend on the shipping line's service loop and routing.

How long does sea freight from Jeddah and Dammam take?

Indicative: Jeddah to Turkey (Mersin/Istanbul) 6–10 days via Suez; Jeddah to Egypt 3–5 days; Dammam to India (Nhava Sheva) 6–9 days; Dammam to UAE (Jebel Ali) 2–3 days; Jeddah to North Europe 16–22 days; Dammam to China 18–24 days. FCL (20'/40') and LCL groupage are both available. LCL adds 3–5 days for consolidation and deconsolidation.

Can you ship by road from Saudi Arabia to the GCC and beyond?

Yes. Road freight (FTL and LTL) connects Saudi Arabia to the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman across the GCC land network, and overland to Jordan and beyond. Saudi Arabia to the UAE is typically 1–2 days by road; to Qatar 1 day via the reopened Salwa border. We handle the GCC customs formalities and cross-border documentation.

Which ports and airports do you work with in Saudi Arabia?

Sea: Jeddah Islamic Port (SAJED) on the Red Sea — the Kingdom's largest — King Abdullah Port (SAKAC) at KAEC, and King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam (SADMM) on the Gulf. Air: King Abdulaziz Jeddah (JED), King Khalid Riyadh (RUH) and King Fahd Dammam (DMM). We arrange pickup from any region, including Riyadh, Jubail and the industrial cities.

Do you handle petrochemical and plastics exports from Saudi Arabia?

Yes. Petrochemicals and plastics — polymers, resins and processed chemicals from Jubail, Yanbu and the SABIC complexes — are among Saudi Arabia's leading exports. We handle packaged, bagged, IBC and containerised chemical cargo, with the documentation and dangerous-goods declarations required where applicable. We advise on classification before shipment.

What export documents does a Saudi exporter need?

Standard documents: commercial invoice, packing list, HS classification, Saudi customs declaration (via FASAH), certificate of origin (often attested by the Saudi Chamber of Commerce), and the transport document — bill of lading (sea), airway bill (air) or CMR (road). Some products require SABER / SASO conformity certification. We advise on documentation before shipment.

What goods are commonly exported from Saudi Arabia?

Saudi Arabia's leading non-oil exports include petrochemicals and plastics, processed chemicals and fertilisers, aluminium and metals, dates and agricultural products, and building materials. High-value and time-sensitive cargo moves by air, while bulk and containerised consignments move by sea from Jeddah and Dammam.
