UAE Export Documentation
The documents needed for the import and export of goods to and from the UAE are:
- invoices – initiated by supplier
- Certificate of Origin
- Bills of Lading /Airway Bill
Customs
The UAE generally levies customs duties on imported goods at the rate of 5%. Higher rates of duty apply to alcohol and tobacco. Some categories of goods are exempt, eg certain agricultural products, printed material and pharmaceuticals. Exemptions may also be granted for goods imported for industrial or manufacturing purposes.
Where goods are imported into a UAE free zone, customs duties are not payable.
Goods can only be imported into the UAE by a company that is registered in the UAE and the goods must be relevant to the licensed business activity of the business.
There are no duties or tariffs on exports.
Goods manufactured in Israel cannot be imported into the UAE.
Pornographic material, ivory/rhino horns, cannabis, alcoholic beverages, firearms, fireworks, narcotics and opium are also strictly prohibited.
All printed matter, films and tapes must be cleared by the Ministry of Information.
You can find more about import tariffs in the Market Access Database (MADB).
