Logisticoo connects Germany with the United Arab Emirates — by container and project sea freight to Jebel Ali, by air freight from Frankfurt to Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with a fixed-price quote within 30 minutes. The UAE is Germany's most important sales market on the Arabian Peninsula and at the same time a re-export hub for the entire region: machinery, vehicles, electrical equipment, and construction and hotel fit-out goods head to the Emirates, much of it moving onward through the free zones into third markets. The standard routing is sea freight from Hamburg or Bremerhaven to Jebel Ali, the largest port in the Middle East, in 16 to 22 days; smaller shipments are consolidated weekly in shared containers, and urgent freight flies overnight. Imports are processed electronically through Mirsal 2 at the standard GCC tariff of 5 percent — or duty-free if your goods remain in a free zone such as JAFZA; we calculate which route is more favourable before booking. From a trade-fair stand for Gitex to a plant loading: your dedicated dispatcher manages pre-carriage, shipping, customs clearance and delivery within the Emirates as one product. For return flows — such as trade-fair goods after an event or re-exports — we organise the export out of the Emirates at the same time.
Routes & corridors
The main routing is sea freight from Hamburg or Bremerhaven to Jebel Ali (Dubai), the largest port in the Middle East — 16 to 22 days ocean transit, with truck pre- and on-carriage. Air freight from Frankfurt daily to Dubai and Abu Dhabi; weekly consolidated containers (LCL) for smaller shipments.
Customs clearance
The UAE levies the GCC common external tariff of generally 5%; imports into Dubai are processed electronically through the Mirsal 2 system, requiring a commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin. Deliveries into free zones such as JAFZA remain duty-free until the goods enter the domestic market; on the export side, an ATLAS export declaration is mandatory.
