Shipping Methods Explained — RoRo Vs Container
Two primary methods are used for overseas car shipping from Saudi Arabia. Here is how they compare:
RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) | Container Shipping | |
How It Works | Vehicle driven onto specialized vessel, secured in garage-style deck | Vehicle loaded into sealed 20ft or 40ft steel container |
Best For | Standard cars, SUVs, operational vehicles | Luxury, classic, non-running, or high-value vehicles |
Cost | Lower base cost | Higher, but includes max protection |
Protection Level | Moderate — exposed to sea air | Maximum — fully enclosed, weather-sealed |
Personal Items | Not permitted inside vehicle | Can include approved items in container |
Availability (KSA) | Available via Jeddah & Dammam ports | Weekly departures — broadest port coverage |
Customs Clearance For Vehicle Import/Export In Saudi Arabia
Navigating Saudi Arabia’s vehicle customs process can be complex — but A-Plus handles it for you. We manage all customs documentation, SABER/SASO compliance, ZATCA declarations, and port clearance, ensuring your vehicle enters or exits the Kingdom without delays.
Key Customs Requirements for Vehicle Import to Saudi Arabia:
- Vehicle age limit: Imported passenger cars must be manufactured within the last 5 years (ZATCA rule). Classic cars over 30 years may be exempt.
- SABER / SASO Certification: A Certificate of Conformity (COC) must be obtained through the SABER platform before customs clearance. We assist with this process.
- ZATCA Declaration: Submit vehicle details and documentation through ZATCA’s online portal (zatca.gov.sa). Customs duty is 5% of CIF value + 15% VAT.
- Required Documents: Original vehicle title, bill of sale/commercial invoice, COC from SABER, import permit (if applicable), passport/Iqama, and customs declaration form.
- GCC Citizens: Each GCC national may import up to two vehicles per year under the GCC Common Customs allowance.
What Factors Affect Your Vehicle Shipping Cost?
The cost of vehicle transport in Saudi Arabia depends on several factors. While we provide exact quotes on request, here are the key pricing variables:
- Distance & Route: Intercity routes within KSA are priced per kilometre and urgency. Riyadh–Dammam is significantly less than Riyadh–Jeddah.
- Shipping Method: RoRo is generally lower cost than containerized shipping. Air freight is highest for overseas shipments.
- Vehicle Size & Type: Larger or heavier vehicles (SUVs, trucks, vans) require more space and incur higher fees.
- Destination: GCC countries are cheaper than Europe, USA, or Asia destinations for overseas shipments.
- Insurance Coverage: We include standard coverage; comprehensive or declared-value marine insurance is available as an upgrade.
- Additional Services: Pre-shipment inspection, indoor storage, expedited clearance, or multiple-vehicle discounts affect the final price.

What types of vehicles do you transport?

Do you offer both air and sea transportation services?
Yes, we offer both air and sea transportation services to accommodate your specific needs. Whether you require expedited delivery by air or cost-effective shipping by sea, we have the capabilities to meet your requirements.
How do you ensure the safety of my vehicle during transportation?
The safety of your vehicle is our top priority. We use top-quality materials and techniques to secure your vehicle during transit, minimizing the risk of damage. Additionally, our team of experienced movers handles the loading, unloading, and transportation process with the utmost care and precision.
Can I track the progress of my vehicle during transit?
Yes, we provide real-time tracking updates so you can monitor the progress of your vehicle during transit. Whether it’s by air or sea, you’ll have peace of mind knowing the exact location of your vehicle at all times.
How far in advance should I book my vehicle transportation service?
We recommend booking your vehicle transportation service as far in advance as possible to ensure availability and secure your preferred delivery dates. However, we understand that sometimes moves happen unexpectedly, so we also offer last-minute booking options, subject to availability. Contact us to discuss your specific requirements and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.
How do I ship a car from Riyadh to Jeddah?

We arrange door-to-door pickup at your Riyadh address, transport your vehicle via our covered carrier fleet on the Riyadh–Jeddah highway (approx. 980 km), and deliver to your Jeddah address — typically within 1–2 business days. Full insurance and real-time tracking included.
What is RoRo shipping and is it suitable for my car?
RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping means your vehicle is driven directly onto a specialized cargo vessel and secured in a garage-style deck for the ocean voyage. It is the most cost-effective method for overseas car shipping and is suitable for standard, operational vehicles. For luxury, classic, or non-running vehicles, containerized shipping offers better protection.
What documents do I need to import a car to Saudi Arabia?
To import a vehicle to Saudi Arabia you need: the original vehicle title showing clear ownership, a bill of sale or commercial invoice, a Certificate of Conformity (COC) obtained through the SABER platform, an import permit for certain vehicle types, your passport or Iqama, and a customs declaration form submitted via ZATCA’s portal. A-Plus assists with all documentation as part of our overseas shipping service.
How long does vehicle shipping from Saudi Arabia take?
Intercity transport within Saudi Arabia typically takes 1–3 business days depending on origin and destination. Ocean freight to Europe or the USA takes 25–45 days. Air freight for urgent overseas deliveries is the fastest option at 3–10 days, subject to customs clearance timing.
Can I ship personal items inside my car?
For RoRo shipping, personal items inside the vehicle are not permitted as Saudi customs may require the vehicle to be empty. For containerized shipping, you may include approved personal items within the same container, subject to Saudi customs regulations. We advise customers on exactly what is permitted for their specific shipment.
Do you handle customs clearance for vehicle shipping?
Yes — customs clearance is included in our overseas vehicle shipping service. We manage ZATCA declarations, SABER/SASO compliance, certificate of conformity, port handling, and all documentation, ensuring smooth clearance at Saudi ports or at your destination country’s customs authority.
How much does it cost to ship a car in Saudi Arabia?
Vehicle shipping costs in Saudi Arabia depend on the route, vehicle size, method (intercity vs overseas), and required services. Intercity transport within Saudi Arabia is typically more affordable than overseas ocean freight. Contact A-Plus for a free, itemized quote with no hidden fees — we respond within 2 business hours.
