Moving furniture from Jeddah to Kuwait

Dismantling: wardrobes, beds and dining tables, with their screws in a bag taped to the piece.
Packing: blankets and film for sofas, and foam and reinforced cardboard for glass and screens.
Appliances: the fridge and washing machine are emptied and dried a day before.
Numbering and inventory: each carton with its number and room, and a list you sign.
Relief for those relocating: the used furniture of a Gulf citizen or a resident who is relocating enters with no duty, on a contents list.

Details are on the furniture and household shipping page.

The road across the Kingdom, and the crossings

Kuwait has two land crossings with the Kingdom:

Al Ruqi and Salmi: north of Hafr Al-Batin, and the best for those coming from Jeddah, Riyadh and Qassim.
Khafji and Nuwaiseeb: on the coast, and the best for those coming from Dammam and Jubail, and for the south of Kuwait.

What lengthens the time most is the wait for a turn at the crossing in peak seasons and holidays, and a missing document. We check the documents before departure, and choose the less crowded crossing where there is a choice.

Kuwaiti customs and the documents

Kuwait and the Kingdom are both members of the Gulf Cooperation Council customs union, which simplifies shipping between them:

Type of shipment	Treatment	Documents
Goods of Gulf origin	Exempt from duty	Invoice, certificate of origin and export declaration
Foreign goods	The unified 5% duty, if not paid on entering the Gulf	Invoice, and proof the duty was paid
Used furniture and belongings	Exempt for those relocating	ID or residence permit, and a contents list
A car	By its age and origin	Registration and export certificate

Consumer products need to conform to Gulf standards, and foodstuffs need an Arabic label and sufficient shelf life. The documents are explained on the required documents page.

Shipping cars from Jeddah to Kuwait

Method: inside an enclosed car carrier, or driven by its owner on export plates.
Permanent export: an export certificate from the traffic department, after fines are settled and the plates surrendered.
The car’s age: Kuwait sets a limit on the age of an imported used car, so we confirm what is in force for your car before shipping.
A visitor: enters with their car on its Saudi plates and insurance covering Kuwait, with no export.

The general conditions are in the article on car shipping from Saudi Arabia.

Delivery in Kuwait’s governorates

Governorate	Main areas
The Capital	Kuwait City, Shuwaikh, Dasma, Kaifan
Hawalli	Hawalli, Salmiya, Jabriya, Mishref
Farwaniya	Farwaniya, Khaitan, Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh
Ahmadi	Ahmadi, Fahaheel, Mangaf, Mahboula
Jahra	Jahra, Saad Al-Abdullah
Mubarak Al-Kabeer	Qurain, Adan, Sabah Al-Salem

Kuwait is small, so delivery in any governorate takes place on the day of crossing or the next. More on the destination is on the shipping to Kuwait page.
