Al Saif International Shipping ships from Hofuf, Mubarraz, Al Oyun, Al Omran, Al Jafr, Al Taraf and the eastern and northern villages of Al Ahsa to Casablanca, Rabat, Salé, Marrakech, Fes, Tangier, Agadir, Meknes, Oujda, Kenitra, Tetouan and every city in Morocco. Furniture, cars or cargo are loaded in Al Ahsa and trucked to Jeddah Islamic Port on the usual route, or to nearby King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam when needed, then sail through the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean to Casablanca, Tanger Med or Agadir. The sea leg from Jeddah takes about 18–25 days depending on the shipping line, and air freight to Mohammed V Airport takes 2–5 days. A room in a shared container starts from SAR 560, a sedan from SAR 1,900 and a 20–30 kg air box from SAR 190. Book now: 0555915287.

Shipping from Al Ahsa to Morocco: from the oasis to the Atlantic

Al Ahsa lies in the heart of the Eastern Province, about 150 km from King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam and about 1,250 km from Jeddah Islamic Port. Being close to Dammam may look decisive, but Morocco sits at the far western end of the Arab world on the Atlantic, and a ship leaving the Arabian Gulf has to cross the Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Aden before climbing the Red Sea to the Suez Canal. That detour usually makes a Dammam sailing longer and may require a transshipment at an intermediate port.

So the usual route for Al Ahsa shipments is by truck to Jeddah: the container is sealed at your door in Hofuf or Mubarraz, crosses via Riyadh to Jeddah in about two days, then sails north to Suez, across the Mediterranean to the Strait of Gibraltar and on to the Moroccan coast. We use the Dammam option when it suits the shipment better, such as commercial goods in Eastern Province warehouses or a convenient sailing, and set out both choices clearly before you book.

Which Moroccan port suits your address?

Casablanca port serves Casablanca, Mohammedia, El Jadida, Rabat, Salé, Temara, Kenitra and Marrakech. Tanger Med serves Tangier, Tetouan and Larache, with trucks continuing to Fes, Meknes, Oujda and Nador. Agadir port serves the Souss, Inezgane, Taroudant and the south. We choose the port that keeps delivery distance after arrival as short as possible.

Why Al Ahsa families trust us

Al Ahsa has a Moroccan community working in hospitals, schools, the university and the private sector, many of whom have lived for years in districts such as Al Mohammadiyah, Al Mazrouah, Al Khalidiyah and Al Salmaniyah in Hofuf, and Al Aziziyah, Al Rashidiyah and Al Mahasin in Mubarraz. Alongside them are Saudi families who visit Morocco and own homes there, and date traders looking for Moroccan buyers. We handle each case according to its size and purpose.

• Local crew in Hofuf and Mubarraz: surveying, dismantling, packing and numbering items before loading.
• The right port: Jeddah or Dammam for departure; Casablanca, Tanger Med or Agadir for arrival.
• Shared containers: for small loads, so you never pay for a whole container for one room or a few boxes.
• Two options in Morocco: door delivery with assembly on request, or port collection through a Moroccan clearance agent.
• Clear itemised quotes: trucking, ocean freight, clearance and delivery, each on its own line.
• Optional insurance: insurance can be added for valuable items on request.

Shipping prices from Al Ahsa to Morocco

Starting prices are the same for every Saudi city. The difference on an Al Ahsa customer’s bill comes from trucking to Jeddah or Dammam, and from the arrival port and delivery address in Morocco. Destination port charges, inland delivery and clearance in Morocco are set in the itemised quote before loading.

What raises or lowers the price?

• Shipment size: a room, a full home, or a villa with annexes.
• Container type: shared, 20 ft or 40 ft.
• Departure port: Jeddah after trucking, or nearby Dammam.
• Delivery location: a major city, a town in the Atlas or the Rif, or an old medina trucks cannot enter.
• Services: dismantling and assembly, wooden crates and storage.

Tips to cut the cost

The economical way to ship a room or a limited load is a shared container. Anyone moving a whole house from Hofuf, and Al Ahsa homes are often large with big majlis rooms and annexes, should sort before shipping: large floor seating, outdoor furniture and some older appliances may be cheaper to replace in Morocco than to ship. Use boxes of one size so they stack tightly, send heavy items by sea, and book well ahead of the summer season.

Furniture moving from Al Ahsa to Morocco

Work starts with a visit to your home in Hofuf, Mubarraz or Al Oyun, where we prepare a numbered contents list and ask about the home you are moving to in Morocco: an apartment in Casablanca or Rabat with a narrow lift, a traditional house in Fes or Meknes, or a village home in the Atlas. These details decide what is dismantled, what stays in one piece and what needs a wooden crate.

Bedrooms and majlis seating

Beds and wardrobes are taken down to panels, wrapped in padded plastic and heavy cardboard, with screws in numbered bags fixed to each piece. Mattresses go into sealed covers. Al Ahsa majlis seating with its cushions and bolsters is wrapped in fabric bags and then plastic, because the voyage is long and humidity can mark upholstery.

Kitchens, including IKEA kitchens

We dismantle kitchen cabinets, numbering and photographing each unit beforehand. IKEA kitchens, which many Al Ahsa families buy from the Khobar store, need special care because their pressed-board panels are sensitive to moisture, so we wrap them in an insulating layer and stand them upright. Pots, dallah coffee pots, cups and tea sets are wrapped piece by piece.

Appliances and ACs

Fridges and washing machines are emptied and dried a day before packing, and the washer drum is locked. A technician removes split ACs after pumping the gas into the outdoor unit. Plugs in Morocco differ from those common in Saudi Arabia, so check with an electrician there before switching on.

Antiques and office furniture

Heritage pieces, mirrors, chandeliers and Al Ahsa pottery go into wooden crates built to size. We also move office and clinic furniture from Al Ahsa, numbering drawers and cabinets and packing files in sealed boxes labelled by department.

Trucking from Al Ahsa to the port

The container either comes to your door, where it is loaded and sealed and not opened until Morocco, or a closed truck takes your goods to our warehouse to be stowed in a shared container. On the usual route the truck runs from Hofuf to Riyadh and on to Jeddah, and we follow it until it is handed in at the port and export formalities are completed through the Fasah platform. With the Dammam option the road leg is short, and we choose based on sailing dates and the type of shipment.

Sea freight from Al Ahsa to Casablanca and Tangier

Sea freight is the main route for homes, cars and cargo to Morocco. We offer full containers (FCL), 20 ft for an apartment or mid-sized house and 40 ft for a villa, and shared shipping (LCL) for a room or some boxes. The container sails from Jeddah through the Suez Canal to Casablanca or Tanger Med in about 18–25 days depending on the line, or to Agadir for the south. A 20 ft container starts from SAR 5,600 and a 40 ft from SAR 7,500.

Port to door or port collection

With port to door we follow clearance through a local Moroccan clearance agent, then deliver to your address and assemble the furniture on request. With port to port the owner collects the container at Casablanca or Tanger Med through a customs broker of their choice, who handles clearance and inland transport. Port collection suits people with family in Morocco who can follow the paperwork; door delivery suits those who want to find their belongings at home.

Moroccan cities we deliver to

If the home is inside an old medina such as Fes el Bali or old Marrakech, where lanes are narrow, the last stretch is done with small vehicles or by hand, and we make this clear in the quote before shipping.

Moroccans in Al Ahsa: returning for good, students and family gifts

Many of our requests come from Moroccan teachers, nurses, doctors and technicians who have spent years in Al Ahsa and decided to return home for good. They need the whole house moved in a 20 ft or 40 ft container, and should prepare proof of their residence abroad and relocation before shipping, because relief on used belongings depends on these papers. There are Moroccan students at King Faisal University, and children of resident families joining Moroccan universities, whose things we send by air when urgent or by sea in a shared container. And there are the gifts families send home: Al Ahsa Khalas dates, perfumes, clothes and home appliances, in 20–30 kg air boxes or in shared sea freight.

Customs, crossings and exemptions in Morocco

Morocco’s Customs and Indirect Taxes Administration sets the conditions for importing used furniture, personal effects and cars, and they depend on the recipient’s status: a Moroccan resident abroad returning for good, a visitor, or a foreign resident. Some cases may qualify for relief on used belongings when the required papers are presented, while others pay duties. These rules change, so confirm with Moroccan customs or the Moroccan consulate before shipping, and we prepare the declarations in line with the regulations in force at the time of shipping.

Furniture documents

• ID or iqama, and passport.
• Numbered contents list.
• Fasah authorisation for export.
• Consignee details in Morocco: name, national ID number, address and phone.

Commercial cargo documents

Commercial registration, commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin. Dates and food products may need extra health certificates set by the Moroccan authorities, so we review them with you before loading.

Shipping goods and dates from Al Ahsa to Morocco

Al Ahsa is a large palm oasis whose dates are well known in Arab markets, and Moroccans ask for them especially in Ramadan. We ship packed dates and commercial goods as part loads in shared LCL from SAR 790 per CBM, or as full loads in 20 ft or 40 ft containers, with the declarations and certificates required. A Dammam sailing can make sense here because it is close to the warehouses. We follow the container to the arrival port and hand it to the importer’s agent or warehouse.

Car shipping from Al Ahsa to Morocco

Cars go to Morocco by sea in one of two ways: RoRo vessels, where the car is driven up the ship’s ramp and secured uncovered on deck, which suits ordinary cars; or a container, where the car is secured inside a closed shared or private container, which suits SUVs and luxury cars. Sedans start from SAR 1,900, and an SUV in its own 20 ft container from SAR 5,600. We move the car from Al Ahsa to the port on a car carrier.

Car documents

• Vehicle registration and owner’s ID.
• Export plates or export certificate.
• Bank letter if the car is financed.
• Traffic fines settled.

Conditions for importing a car into Morocco

Moroccan customs set the conditions and duties for importing cars, including rules on vehicle age, the owner’s status and relief for returning residents. Because these change, confirm with Moroccan customs or the consulate before shipping, so the car does not reach the port only to hit a clearance obstacle.

Air freight from Al Ahsa to Mohammed V Airport

For documents, devices, student luggage and urgent orders we offer air freight. We collect from your home in Hofuf or Mubarraz, and the shipment flies via King Fahd International Airport in Dammam to Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca, or to Marrakech Menara or Rabat-Salé, arriving in 2–5 days. Prices start from SAR 18 per kg on actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher, where volumetric weight = length × width × height ÷ 6000 in centimetres, and a 20–30 kg box starts from SAR 190.

A large, light box is charged by its size, so fill it well and send heavy things by sea.

Land, air or sea?

The rule for Al Ahsa customers: home, car and cargo by sea, urgent items by air, and no land route to Morocco.

Prohibited items and packing

We do not accept flammable materials, gas cylinders, loose batteries, medicines without a prescription, or plants and seeds without a permit. This matters in Al Ahsa in particular, where some people want to send palm offshoots or seeds, which cannot ship without an agricultural permit. Drain fuel from equipment and remove batteries from devices. Use double-wall boxes, fill the gaps and label the contents on each box.

Parcels, bags and online stores

We ship parcels and bags by air from SAR 190 for a 20–30 kg box, with anything above charged per kg from SAR 18. We also serve Al Ahsa online stores selling dates, bukhoor and perfumes to customers in Morocco, collecting orders and sending them to buyers’ addresses, or consolidating them in shared shipping for larger volumes.

Distance and transit table

Clearance in Morocco and delivery to the address are added on top.

Tracking and storage

We update you when the truck leaves Al Ahsa, when the container is handed in at the port and when it sails, and give you the container and bill of lading numbers to follow with the shipping line, then tell you about arrival and the delivery date. If you need to hand back your home before the sailing, or your home in Morocco is not ready, we store the furniture in a closed warehouse priced by volume and duration.

Shipping from Morocco to Al Ahsa

We also serve the reverse route: belongings of Moroccans arriving to work in Al Ahsa, and traders’ goods such as zellige tiles, brassware, leather, carpets, handicrafts and argan oil. We collect from any Moroccan city and ship to Jeddah or Dammam, then by truck to Hofuf, in line with the regulations in force at the time of shipping.

The right season to ship

Spring and autumn are comfortable, because summer is busy with people returning to Morocco for the holidays, and date and gift shipments rise before Ramadan. Book early if your date falls in summer.
