Shipping Company from Makkah to Morocco | 0555915287 International Sea & Air Freight and Car Shipping to Rabat and Casablanca

Al Saif International Shipping ships from every Makkah district, including Al Aziziyah, Al Sharaie, Al Awali, Al Naseem, Al Zahir, Al Utaybiyah, Kudai, Al Shawqiyah and Al Nawariyah, and from Al Jumum, Bahrah and Al Kamil, to Casablanca, Rabat, Salé, Marrakech, Fes, Tangier, Agadir, Meknes, Oujda, Kenitra, Tetouan and every city in Morocco. Makkah’s advantage is that Jeddah Islamic Port is only about 80 km away, so the container reaches it within hours, then sails through the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean to Casablanca, Tanger Med or Agadir in about 18–25 days depending on the shipping line. Air freight from King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah to Mohammed V Airport in Casablanca takes 2–5 days. A room in a shared container starts from SAR 560, a sedan from SAR 1,900 and air freight from SAR 18 per kg. Book now: 0555915287.

Shipping from Makkah to Morocco: Jeddah’s proximity shortens the journey

A Makkah customer is lucky on location: the distance between home and Jeddah Islamic Port is short, no more than about an hour and a half by truck in normal conditions. A container loaded in the morning in Al Awali or Al Sharaie can reach the port the same day, so there is no long road leg as from Riyadh or the Eastern Province, and no temporary storage unless the vessel is delayed. From Jeddah the ship sails north up the Red Sea, through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean, and west to the Strait of Gibraltar and the Moroccan ports.

Being close to the port does not remove the need for planning. Movement inside Makkah needs special coordination in the seasons, because some roads around the central area close or become congested during Ramadan and Hajj, and large trucks may only enter certain districts at set times. So we schedule loading in advance, choose the right vehicle for the street, and may use a small truck to shuttle goods from the house to the container if the container cannot reach the door.

Which Moroccan port suits you?

Casablanca for the centre and west: Casablanca, Mohammedia, El Jadida, Rabat, Salé, Kenitra and Marrakech. Tanger Med for the north: Tangier, Tetouan and Larache, with road links to Fes, Meknes and Oujda. Agadir for the Souss and the south. We choose the port by your final address.

Why Makkah families choose Al Saif

Makkah has a long-established Moroccan community: some families settled generations ago, others work in hotels, restaurants and shops around the Haram, or in universities and hospitals. Some have spent their lives in Makkah and want to return to Fes, Marrakech or Casablanca; others send gifts to family after every season. We also know Makkah families with in-laws in Morocco. For all of them we plan a shipment around its size and purpose.

• Close to the port: a short haul from Makkah to Jeddah, with loading coordinated around the seasons.
• A crew that knows Makkah: Al Aziziyah, Al Sharaie, Al Awali, Al Jumum and truck entry times.
• Shared containers: for a room or a few boxes, without paying for a full container.
• Two arrival options: door delivery with assembly on request, or port collection through a Moroccan clearance agent.
• Itemised quotes: you know the cost of each stage before loading.
• Optional insurance: insurance can be added for valuable items on request.

Shipping prices from Makkah to Morocco

Starting prices are the same for every Saudi city, and a Makkah customer benefits from the short haul to Jeddah port, which keeps that line small. The difference lies in shipment size, the arrival port and the delivery address. Destination port charges, inland delivery and clearance in Morocco are set in the itemised quote.

Price factors

• Volume and weight: by sea, rooms and items; by air, actual or volumetric weight.
• Container type: shared, 20 ft or 40 ft.
• Arrival port: Casablanca, Tanger Med or Agadir.
• Loading conditions in Makkah: the need for a shuttle truck or loading at set times.
• Services: dismantling and assembly, wooden crates and storage.

How to save

The economical way to ship a room or some boxes is a shared container. Anyone moving a full home should compare the full-home rate with a 20 ft container. Avoid loading during Ramadan and Hajj if you can, since movement in Makkah is harder and demand is higher, leave behind pieces that are not worth shipping, and use boxes of one size.

Furniture moving from Makkah to Morocco

Makkah homes vary: apartment blocks in Al Aziziyah and Al Naseem with narrow stairs and lifts, villas in Al Awali, Al Sharaie and Wali Al Ahd, and older houses in the districts around the Haram. Morocco likewise has modern apartments and traditional houses in the old medinas. Our crew starts with a survey and a numbered contents list, works out how to bring large pieces down from upper floors, then dismantles and wraps each item according to its nature.

Bedrooms and majlis seating

Beds and wardrobes are taken down to panels, wrapped in padded plastic and heavy cardboard, with screws in numbered bags. Mattresses go into sealed covers against humidity. Majlis seating and sofas are wrapped in blankets and then plastic, and we suggest measuring the salon of your Moroccan home before shipping.

Kitchens, including IKEA kitchens

We dismantle, number and photograph kitchen cabinets so they can be rebuilt exactly as before. IKEA kitchens from the Jeddah store are common in Makkah homes, and their pressed-board panels react to moisture, so we wrap them in an insulating layer and stand them upright. Pots, plates and glassware are wrapped piece by piece.

Appliances and ACs

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

Antiques, Qurans and office furniture

Mirrors, chandeliers and antiques go into wooden crates built to size. Religious libraries, Qurans and books, which many Makkah households collect, are packed in small, strong boxes so the cardboard does not tear under the weight, and valuable volumes are wrapped one by one. We also move office and shop furniture, numbering drawers and cabinets.

Makkah to Jeddah port: a short leg that needs coordination

After packing, the container comes to your door to be loaded and sealed, or a closed truck takes your goods to our Jeddah warehouse to be stowed in a shared container. The road from Makkah to Jeddah is short, but we plan around truck entry times and seasonal congestion, follow the container until it is handed in at the port and export formalities are completed through the Fasah platform, and tie loading to the vessel’s sailing date.

Sea freight from Jeddah to Casablanca and Tanger Med

Sea freight is the main route for furniture, 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 a limited number of boxes. The container sails from Jeddah through the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean 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, a 40 ft from SAR 7,500 and a shared room from SAR 560.

Port to door or port to port

With port to door we follow clearance through a local Moroccan clearance agent, then deliver to your home in Casablanca, Rabat or Fes and assemble on request. With port to port the owner collects the container through a customs broker of their choice, who handles clearance and inland transport. Port collection suits those with relatives who can follow up; door delivery suits those who want complete peace of mind.

Moroccan cities we serve

In the old medinas of Fes, Marrakech and Tetouan, where lanes are too narrow for trucks, the last stretch is done by small vehicles or by hand, and we make this clear in the quote.

Moroccans in Makkah: returning for good, students and seasonal gifts

Most of our Makkah requests come from Moroccans who have spent long years near the Haram and decided to return home for good. They move the whole house in a 20 ft or 40 ft container and need to prepare proof of their residence abroad and relocation, because relief on used belongings depends on these papers. There are also students at Umm Al-Qura University heading home, whose books and belongings we send by sea in a shared container, or by air if they are in a hurry. And there are the gifts Makkah families and Moroccans send to relatives: prayer rugs, Qurans, prayer beads, perfumes, clothes and dates, in 20–30 kg air boxes or in shared sea freight.

Moroccan customs and exemptions

Morocco’s Customs and Indirect Taxes Administration sets the conditions for importing used furniture, personal effects and cars, which 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. Because these rules change, please confirm with Moroccan customs or the Moroccan consulate in Jeddah 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 documents

Commercial registration, commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin. Some goods, such as perfumes and food, may need extra certificates, so we review them with you before loading.

Commercial cargo from Makkah to Morocco

Makkah traders deal with Morocco in goods such as perfumes, bukhoor, prayer rugs and Islamic clothing, and import djellabas, babouches and handicrafts from it. We ship part loads in shared LCL from SAR 790 per CBM, or full loads in 20 ft or 40 ft containers, prepare the customs declarations, follow the container to the arrival port and hand it to the importer’s agent or warehouse.

Car shipping from Makkah 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. The short distance to Jeddah makes moving the car to the port easy on a car carrier.

Car documents

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

Importing the car into Morocco

Moroccan customs set the conditions and duties for importing cars, including rules on vehicle age, the owner’s status and exemptions. These conditions change, so confirm with Moroccan customs or the consulate before shipping.

Air freight from Makkah to Mohammed V Airport

For documents, devices, student luggage and urgent orders we offer air freight from King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah to Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca, with routing to Marrakech Menara or Rabat-Salé also possible. We collect from your home in Makkah, and delivery takes 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.

Air suits light seasonal gifts and documents, while furniture and heavy items are far more economical by sea.

Land, air or sea?

For a Makkah customer: sea from Jeddah for the home, the car and cargo, and air for urgent, light items.

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. Note that some perfumes and liquid incense may be treated as flammable in air freight, so tell us about them before packing so we can choose the right method. Use double-wall boxes for books and kitchenware, fill gaps with paper and write the contents on the side of each box.

Parcels, bags and online stores

We ship parcels and excess baggage by air: a 20–30 kg box starts from SAR 190, and anything above is charged per kg from SAR 18. We also serve Makkah online stores selling perfumes, prayer beads and prayer rugs to customers in Morocco, collecting orders and sending them to buyers’ addresses or consolidating them in shared shipping.

Distance and transit table

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

If you need to vacate your Makkah home before the sailing, we store the furniture in a closed warehouse in Jeddah, priced by volume and duration.

Shipping from Morocco to Makkah

We also handle the reverse route: belongings of Moroccans coming to live in Makkah, and traders’ goods such as djellabas, carpets, brassware, zellige and handicrafts. We collect from any Moroccan city and ship to Jeddah port, then on to Makkah, in line with the regulations in force at the time of shipping.

The right season to ship

Loading in Makkah is easiest outside Ramadan and Hajj, when movement is smoother. In Morocco, summer is busy with residents abroad coming home, so book early if your date falls then.
