Shipping Company from Makkah to Qatar | 0568829975 ◈ Goods, Luggage and Car Shipping from Makkah

If you need a shipping company from Makkah to Qatar, Al Rahwan comes to your home, hotel or shop in Makkah and loads your belongings into a closed truck that crosses the Kingdom eastwards to the Salwa border crossing, faced on the Qatari side by the Abu Samra crossing. Together they form the only land link between Saudi Arabia and Qatar. The shipment reaches the receiver’s address in Doha or any other Qatari city 3 to 5 days after collection. Prices start from SAR 120 for a single carton of up to 30 kg; a single room’s furniture starts at SAR 740, and a saloon riding on a car transporter at SAR 1,100. Call 0568829975 and ask about the next departure.

Makkah shipments have a character of their own: residents of furnished flats leaving after a long stay, visitors from Qatar who came for Umrah and are going home with purchases their airline allowance cannot cover, families moving to Doha for work, and suppliers sending stock to the Qatari market. That is why Al Rahwan consolidates Makkah consignments at its yard on the eastern edge of Jeddah, where they join the regular Qatar trip from the Western Region and leave on one truck on a known date. Below you will find the route, the timings and the full price list, how furniture, cars and cartons are handled, air freight via Jeddah airport, and the documents needed for each type of shipment.

The road from Makkah to Qatar: which way does the shipment go?

By road, Jeddah lies roughly 1,519 km from Doha, and a Makkah shipment joins that same Jeddah trip, following the one road east towards the heart of the Kingdom. After collection from your district the shipment arrives at the consolidation yard, where each item is weighed, photographed and given a label with the receiver’s name and Qatari city, then stowed in the trip truck. The truck then heads east on the highway across Najd to Riyadh, and from Riyadh turns south-east towards the Salwa crossing at the neck of the Qatar peninsula, about 460 km away.

At Salwa the shipment’s exit is processed on Fasah, the online system of Saudi customs (ZATCA); next, the truck covers the short gap to the Abu Samra crossing, where the customs declaration is lodged on Al Nadeeb, the electronic clearance system used by Qatar Customs. Once released, only about 90 km separate the shipment from Doha, from where it is distributed to Al Rayyan, Al Wakrah, Lusail, Al Khor and the other cities. Because the crossing works around the clock, seven days a week, the truck never waits for a gate to open, only for its turn at inspection.

Why road rather than sea? Because road is the only direct route between the Kingdom and Qatar, and it allows true door-to-door delivery with no unloading at a port and no wait for a vessel. Sea freight in containers to Hamad Port is used only for large commercial consignments and is priced case by case. For household furniture, cars, cartons and medium-sized goods, the truck remains the practical choice.

How long does a shipment take from Makkah to Qatar?

General shipments from Makkah reach Qatar 3 to 5 days from collection day to delivery day, cars arrive 2 to 4 days after loading on the transporter, and an air shipment arrives in 24 to 48 hours. Where you fall within that window depends on the departure date of the Qatar trip from the consolidation yard, the length of the queue at the crossing, whether the shipment is selected for manual inspection, and how far the Qatari city is from Doha.

A question that comes up often: is there shipping from Saudi Arabia to Qatar for people living in Makkah itself? Yes, the trip is regular and the customer does not need to travel to Riyadh or Dammam to hand over a shipment. The Al Rahwan team comes to the door in Makkah, the clearing agent handles both crossings, and the receiver in Qatar only needs to be present at delivery or to nominate someone to receive on their behalf.

Collection from Makkah districts, hotels and furnished flats

Makkah is ringed by ranges of granite mountains and its districts sit between valleys and slopes, so the way a collection works changes from one district to the next. Al-Shawqiyah, Al-Awali, Waly Al-Ahd and Al-Sharaye are modern plans with streets wide enough for a medium truck, while streets narrow in older districts such as Jarwal, Al-Hijrah and Al-Nuzha, where a compact van shuttles the pieces out to the big truck parked on the closest main road. The Al Rahwan supervisor decides this from photos of the building and street before collection day, so the customer is never surprised by a truck that cannot get in.

Al Rahwan also covers the outskirts of Makkah and nearby areas such as Al-Jumum and Bahra, as well as Jeddah, Taif, Rabigh, Al-Lith, Khulais and King Abdullah Economic City, and shipments from these places are combined with Makkah shipments on the same trip. The customer therefore pays for the space their goods occupy in the truck, not for a whole truck crossing the Kingdom for them alone.

When should you book a collection in Makkah?

Al Rahwan’s crews collect seven days a week between 7 am and 11 pm, and in Makkah the best time depends on the season. On ordinary days booking a few days ahead is enough, but before Hajj, during Ramadan and at the peak of the Umrah season traffic rises and truck movement is restricted on some roads, so it pays to book early and choose the first morning hours or after the evening prayer. If your travel date is tied to the end of the season, hand over your belongings before the busiest days and let the shipment travel ahead of you or follow you to Qatar.

At hotels and furnished flats the Al Rahwan team agrees the access time and parking spot with reception or the flat owner, and collects suitcases and cartons against a list the customer signs. If the customer has already left Makkah before the date, someone acting for them can hand over the goods after sending a copy of the ID and a simple authorisation, so the shipment continues without the owner having to come back.

Shipping prices from Makkah to Qatar

Al Rahwan applies to Makkah shipments the same Qatar price list it publishes for cities across the Kingdom, and every figure in it is a starting price in Saudi riyals. The final amount is set once the volume or weight, the district in Makkah, the delivery city in Qatar and the services you want are known. The quote arrives itemised, so the customer sees the cost of transport and of every extra service before agreeing.

How much does shipping from Makkah to Qatar cost? The lowest a bill starts at is SAR 7.5 per kg of parcels (anything under 5 kg is billed as 5 kg); a carton begins at SAR 120 and a suitcase at SAR 140. Moving one room’s furniture begins at SAR 740, a home of three rooms at SAR 2,780, and a saloon car at SAR 1,100. For pallets, containers and air cargo the price is worked out once weight and size are known.

Worked examples from real Makkah shipments

• A family in Al-Shawqiyah moving to Al Wakrah: furniture for a three-room flat from SAR 2,780, an SUV from SAR 1,390 and four extra cartons from SAR 480, so the total starts from SAR 4,650.
• A visitor from Doha who stayed in a furnished flat in Al-Aziziyah: two suitcases from SAR 280 and a carton of gifts and dates from SAR 120, so the total starts from SAR 400.
• A small 8 kg parcel: 8 × 7.5 = SAR 60. A 3 kg parcel is billed at the 5 kg floor, so SAR 37.5.
• A hotel-supplies trader shipping 4 cubic metres to Lusail: 4 × 415 = SAR 1,660.

When is a dedicated truck cheaper than paying by the cubic metre?

Dividing the dedicated-truck price (SAR 2,300) by the cubic-metre price (SAR 415) gives about 5.5 cubic metres. If your goods exceed that volume, say 6 cubic metres starting from SAR 2,490 by the metre, the full truck may be both cheaper and faster, because it leaves on your date and does not stop to load other shipments. The Al Rahwan team runs this comparison on every commercial request and suggests the lower-cost option.

Which factors move the final figure?

The biggest factors are the number of items that need dismantling and reassembly, which storey the home is on and whether its lift can take the larger pieces, the size of cartons relative to their weight, and the type of transporter you choose for your car. On top of that come optional services such as storage before delivery, insurance on the shipment or timber crates for fragile pieces. Anything you did not ask for does not appear on the quote at all.

Furniture moving from Makkah to Qatar

A furniture move with Al Rahwan starts with a survey, either a short visit or photos and a video the customer sends on WhatsApp to the same number. From it the supervisor learns the number of rooms and items, the floor, the lift size and stair width, then sets the number of technicians, the truck size and the amount of packing material. In homes with wide Arabic majlis seating, full bedroom sets and built-in wardrobes, this survey saves hours of work on moving day.

1. Inventory: a list of every item with its photo and condition, signed by the customer and the supervisor.
2. Dismantling: beds, wardrobes and tables are taken apart, with their screws in small bags tied to the same part.
3. Wrapping: moving blankets for wood, clear film for sofas and mattresses, rigid corners for glass and mirrors, bubble wrap for ornaments.
4. Numbering: each room gets a colour or number, so the delivery team in Qatar knows where every piece goes without asking.
5. Loading: heavy items low and near the front of the box, fragile items on top, everything strapped so nothing moves on the road.
6. Delivery and reassembly: in the new home in Qatar dismantled items are reassembled, wrapping is removed and the inventory is checked with the customer.

Electrical appliances and air conditioners

An Al Rahwan technician separates a split air conditioner into its two units and seals the pipe ends before wrapping, while a window unit is removed and secured upright in the truck. The fridge is emptied and dried a day before the move, travels upright, and is not plugged in in Qatar until it has stood for some hours. A front-loading washing machine needs its drum fixed with transit bolts if available, and televisions travel in rigid cartons with corner guards, ideally the original box if you kept it.

Special pieces: majlis seating, chandeliers and flat-pack furniture

Arabic majlis seating, with its backrests and cushions, is wrapped piece by piece and carried on top of the load so it is not crushed. Crystal chandeliers have their drops and arms removed and packed in a divided box marked with its upright direction. Ready-made flat-pack furniture, the kind bought in boxes, tolerates being taken apart and rebuilt once or twice, so it is better dismantled into panels bundled with their screw bags than moved assembled with its joints at risk. Large marble and glass tops travel standing on their edge between protective boards, and a made-to-measure timber crate may be suggested for them.

On arrival in Qatar the delivery team calls the receiver before the appointment and checks building access and any lift booking the management requires, which is common in the towers of Lusail and West Bay in Doha. After reassembly the supervisor goes through the list with the customer piece by piece, and any remark on an item is recorded on the spot.

Car shipping from Makkah to Qatar

Nobody drives your car to Qatar. It is loaded in Makkah onto a multi-car transporter and rides the whole way, so its mileage does not rise and it is not exposed to road stones and desert heat. The car is photographed from every side at collection and the odometer is recorded, then a fitted protective cover goes over it and the wheels are strapped to the transporter deck, staying that way until it is unloaded in Qatar. It arrives 2 to 4 days after loading.

A shared transporter carries several cars on two decks, each covered and strapped in its place, and it is the most economical because the cost of the trip is spread across the owners. An enclosed carrier has a box closed on every side and is reserved for luxury, modified or delicately painted cars. In both cases the car is loaded only after its export papers have been issued on the Saudi side.

• Remove all personal belongings from the cabin and boot, leaving only the spare wheel and tool kit.
• Leave a quarter of a tank of fuel or less.
• Disable the alarm or tell the team how to switch it off.
• Remove roof racks, bike carriers and any detachable external accessory.
• Report any leak, fault or scratch before collection so it goes into the report.
• For a car still under bank finance, ask the lender for its letter first, since it usually takes longest to obtain.

After arrival, the car is registered in Qatar under whatever Qatari rules apply on the shipping date, and Al Rahwan’s clearing agent tells the receiver which documents the Qatari side needs before the transporter arrives, so the car is not held at the crossing waiting for a paper.

Shipping cartons, parcels and suitcases from Makkah to Qatar

If you are not moving a whole home you pay for what you send: each carton starts from SAR 120 as long as it weighs no more than 30 kg, each suitcase from SAR 140, and loose parcels and items are weighed at SAR 7.5 per kg, with 5 kg as the minimum chargeable weight. The Al Rahwan team collects them from your door in Makkah, they travel on the shared Qatar trip and arrive within 3 to 5 days. Large, light cartons may be charged by volume rather than weight.

Purchases of Umrah pilgrims and visitors

Many who come from Qatar for Umrah or a visit go home with more than they brought: Makkah dates and maamoul, prayer rugs, copies of the Quran and books, fabrics and abayas, oud, incense and perfumes. These travel safely by road if well wrapped, and the carton reaches the receiver’s home in Qatar without its owner paying excess baggage at the airport. Alcohol-based perfumes and oud oils in large bottles are better sent by road than by air, because air freight treats some of them as flammable goods.

• Use new, rigid cartons; a used carton weakens at the edges and tears under load.
• Put dates in sealed boxes inside a bag, in a carton separate from clothes and books.
• Wrap perfume bottles individually and keep them upright, with padding to stop them rubbing.
• Keep each carton within 30 kg and put the heaviest items at the bottom.
• Put a label on two opposite sides of each carton with the name and mobile number of whoever will receive it in Qatar.
• Keep a short list of what is in each carton; the contents list at the crossing is built from it.

Commercial shipping from Makkah to Qatar

Makkah’s economy is tied to serving visitors, so the goods leaving it for Qatar are varied: hotel furnishings and supplies, clothing and fabrics, perfumes and incense, dates, coffee and dry food, gifts and books, as well as electronics, spare parts and packaging materials. Al Rahwan also ships mechanical machinery, heavy factory equipment, metal and wooden furniture, household tools and children’s toys, provided each item is classified correctly in the customs declaration.

Commercial shipping by volume starts from SAR 415 per cubic metre for medium quantities, while a whole truck for one customer begins at SAR 2,300. A pallet consignment is costed pallet by pallet, from the count, the gross weight and the footprint of each, while commercial containers are costed on the goods and the quantity; in both cases the customer is asked for an itemised quote. For large container deals there is a sea option to Hamad Port, considered with the customer when the volume is large and the date is not urgent, while road via Salwa remains the fastest for regular shipments.

Traders supply their CR, an invoice listing quantities and values, and a packing list that mirrors what is in the truck; depending on the goods, customs may want a certificate of origin as well. The data goes to the clearing agent before the shipment leaves, so the export is prepared on Fasah and the Qatari importer or their agent lodges the declaration on Al Nadeeb. The more detailed the packing list, with the weight of each pallet and its carton count, the shorter the inspection at Abu Samra. Some categories, such as food, medical supplies and cosmetics, may need approval from the relevant authorities in Qatar before they arrive.

Air freight from Makkah to Qatar

Air cargo from the holy city has to start in Jeddah: consignments fly out of King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah and are on the ground in Doha, at Hamad International, 24 to 48 hours after being handed over at the cargo terminal. An Al Rahwan courier collects the shipment from the address in Makkah, takes it to the air-cargo building in Jeddah and follows the export formalities there, and it is delivered in Qatar after clearance. Air suits urgent, light shipments: official papers, trade samples, small spare parts, electronic devices and medicines that have a permit, while furniture and cars belong on the road.

Al Rahwan’s advice for anyone undecided between the two: if the shipment weighs less than a few kilograms and cannot wait, air is the better fit; if it is medium or large cartons, the price difference is usually far bigger than the time difference, so road remains the sensible choice.

Documents required for shipping from Makkah to Qatar

Which papers does a Makkah to Qatar shipment need? For personal items and cartons, the owner sends a copy of the national ID card or residence permit (iqama), writes a list of the shipment’s contents, authorises the clearing agent on Fasah, and gives the name and address of the receiver in Qatar. A trader adds their commercial registration, invoice and packing list, and may be asked for a certificate of origin. Before a car can leave, the istimara, the plates, the export certificate and the owner’s ID all have to be in hand, and where a bank still holds a loan on the vehicle its release letter is added. The Al Rahwan team reviews the papers before collection day, because a spelling that differs from the ID card or one absent paper can hold a shipment at the crossing for a full day.

A Fasah authorisation is an electronic step in which the shipment owner gives the customs broker the power to complete the transaction, and the Al Rahwan team guides you through it if you have not used it before. It is best to send photos of the papers on WhatsApp before the appointment, so they are checked and any issue corrected before the truck moves.

Customs clearance at Salwa and Abu Samra

Every shipment from Makkah to Qatar passes two customs authorities. At the Salwa crossing the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority completes the exit formalities on Fasah, the electronic platform through which export and import transactions are handled in the Kingdom. At the Abu Samra crossing the declaration is lodged on Al Nadeeb, the single-window system Qatar Customs uses to receive declarations, collect fees and track the status of each transaction. Al Rahwan’s clearing agent follows both sides, so the customer does not need to attend either.

A shipment may be selected for manual or X-ray inspection, which is routine and does not mean there is a problem. That is why it matters that the contents list is accurate and the cartons numbered, so that whatever is requested can be opened without unloading the whole truck. Any customs charges depend on the goods and on the rules applying when you ship; the agent explains them to the receiver before the shipment arrives. Since second-hand personal effects and new stock for resale are not handled alike, keep them in separate cartons.

Prohibited and restricted items

Al Rahwan applies both countries’ banned-goods lists as they stand on the shipping date, and the customer is asked about the contents of every carton before it is sealed. Items that are not accepted or need a permit include:

• Weapons, ammunition and their parts, fireworks and explosives.
• Narcotics and psychotropic substances, and medicines containing controlled substances without an official prescription.
• Gas cylinders, fuel, flammable materials and hazardous chemicals.
• Cash, gold, valuable jewellery and securities, which are not shipped with belongings.
• Counterfeit goods and products bearing fake trademarks.
• Perishable food without refrigeration, and plants, seeds and soil without an agricultural permit.
• Pesticides, medical preparations and cosmetics in commercial quantities, except with approval from the relevant authority.

Shipment insurance and compensation

Al Rahwan stands behind your shipment from the moment of collection in Makkah until the delivery signature in Qatar, and offers insurance on request, set according to the declared value of the goods. The basis of any claim is what was documented on collection day: the inventory, the photos and the condition of each item. If damage appears at delivery it is recorded on the spot in the presence of the supervisor and the item photographed, then the claim is settled by repair or compensation as agreed at booking. That is why the customer is advised to attend delivery in person or send someone who knows the belongings, and not to sign for receipt before checking the list.

Tracking your shipment from Makkah to your door in Qatar

Al Rahwan sends the customer a message each time the shipment moves from one stage to the next, and the customer can ask about it whenever they like, by call or WhatsApp message to 0568829975, any time from 7 am until 11 pm.

1. Confirmation of collection in Makkah with a copy of the inventory.
2. Arrival at the consolidation yard and loading onto the Qatar trip truck.
3. Departure of the trip from the west, then its passage through Riyadh.
4. The truck reaches Salwa and the export side is closed on Fasah.
5. Crossing to Abu Samra and release through Al Nadeeb.
6. Agreeing the delivery time in the Qatari city with the receiver, then delivery and signature.

Storage before delivery

Not everyone leaving Makkah finds their home in Qatar ready on the same day. Handover of the flat may be delayed, the lease may start two weeks later, or a trader may need to bring stock in batches. For these cases Al Rahwan provides storage on request in prepared warehouses, where belongings are kept wrapped and numbered as they left the house, then delivered on the date the customer chooses. Storage is priced after the volume and length of stay are known, and shows on the quote as its own item.

Steps to book shipping from Makkah to Qatar

1. Contact: ring or WhatsApp 0568829975, and tell the team your district in Makkah, your destination in Qatar and what you want to ship.
2. Photos or survey: send photos of the furniture or cartons, or arrange a free survey at home.
3. Pricing: an itemised breakdown arrives, together with the likely departure date and delivery window.
4. Papers: send copies of the ID and the receiver’s details, and the team walks you through granting the Fasah authorisation.
5. Collection day: inventory, photos, dismantling, wrapping and loading, then a copy of the list for you.
6. Trip and clearance: notifications at every stage until release at Abu Samra.
7. Delivery: unloading and reassembly in Qatar and a check of the list before signing.

Delivery across Qatari cities

Al Rahwan delivers Makkah shipments to every Qatari city. The truck enters from Abu Samra on the road heading to Doha, the capital and its surroundings are the first distribution stops, and other shipments then head north, south and west. The delivery team agrees the time with the receiver a day before arrival and takes into account the rules of towers and residential compounds on when removal trucks may enter.

Common mistakes when shipping from Makkah to Qatar

• Booking at the last minute before the seasons: during the weeks of Hajj and Ramadan trips fill up and movement inside Makkah slows, delaying collection by days.
• Writing a vague contents list: a label such as “home stuff” helps nobody when inspectors open a box; name what is really inside.
• A receiver name that does not match the ID: one wrong letter can delay release at Abu Samra.
• Leaving belongings inside the car: vehicles must travel empty, and items left inside are neither listed nor insured.
• Mixing commercial goods with personal belongings: it changes the classification of the whole shipment at customs.
• Sending alcohol-based perfumes by air: they may be refused at the airport, and road suits them better.
• Ignoring building rules in Qatar: some towers do not admit a truck without prior booking, so the shipment waits an extra day.
• Judging air cost by the scale alone: a bulky but light box is billed on its volume.

What sets Al Rahwan apart on the Makkah–Qatar route?

Al Rahwan’s Qatar trips leave the Western Region on a regular schedule, so a customer in Makkah knows the trip date before packing. Transport relies on closed trucks that protect furniture from dust and sun, and on multi-deck car transporters where each covered car is strapped in its place. Al Rahwan’s teams include technicians trained in dismantling, reassembly and wrapping, and drivers who know the road from the west to Salwa and the procedures at both crossings.

• Published starting prices for every type of shipment, and an itemised quote before you agree.
• Collection from every district and outskirt of Makkah, and from Jeddah, Taif and nearby cities on the same trip.
• A clearing agent who sees the paperwork through on both sides of the border, export lodged on Fasah, import lodged on Al Nadeeb, with no need for the customer to be there.
• A photographed inventory on collection day, insurance on request, and storage for those whose home is not ready yet.
• Several payment methods for the customer to choose from.
• A single line, 0568829975, for both calls and WhatsApp, staffed daily 7 am–11 pm.

Al Rahwan’s work does not stop at Qatar and the Gulf; it moves shipments to any country in the world, by truck, by ship, or by plane for whatever its owner needs urgently, so if you have another destination after Qatar, ask about it on the same call.
