For Every Challenge, We Have the Solution
The challenges of cross-border transport in the Arabian Peninsula are numerous, but we know how to navigate them.
THE CHALLENGE
Cross-border trade faces strict customs and documentation requirements. Differences between Qatari, Saudi, and UAE regulations can cause delays.
THE SOLUTION
We assign licensed customs brokers to manage all paperwork, from import declarations to certificates of origin. Your cargo is pre-cleared whenever possible, minimizing border delays.
THE CHALLENGE
Qatari trucks may need special permits to enter Saudi Arabia or the UAE, and vice versa.
THE SOLUTION
DocShipper coordinates secure cargo transfers with bonded facilities, using LoLo (Lift-On/Lift-Off) methods to minimize handling risks.
THE CHALLENGE
Border crossings like Salwa (Saudi) or Ghuwaifat (UAE) often face heavy traffic, especially during peak periods.
THE SOLUTION
Through real-time monitoring of traffic flows and partnerships with local carriers, we reroute and adjust capacity quickly to keep goods moving.
THE CHALLENGE
High-value shipments such as electronics or pharmaceuticals face theft risks, particularly on some border corridors.
THE SOLUTION
We use GPS tracking, vetted drivers, anti-theft devices, and a monitored fleet to ensure maximum security from origin to destination.

Clients Testimonials

I contacted DocShipper to organize the import of board games from Asia to Switzerland. Despite my lack of experience in the field and the modest size of my request, my dealings with the staff were always professional and efficient. I received sound advice and the staff always took the time to answer my questions. I look forward to working with DocShipper for the import of my goods and highly recommend their services.

My name is Ad Van Den Bosh. I am a Dutch business man cross-trading in the Far East. I reached Robert Houwayek (DocShipper's representative) to clear a 40HC of greenhouse equipment from Qingdao, and deliver it to Lan Krabue in no time. He suggested that I request a Form E, which I did from the supplier, and was able to enjoy a preferential tariff treatment. DocShipper, a way to help you save both time and money!!

I recently used Docshipper to ship my appliances from Germany to Thailand, and I'm thrilled with the service I received! [...]The team was professional, responsive, and kept me informed every step of the way. The packaging and handling of my appliances were top-notch, and they arrived in perfect condition. I was impressed with the attention to detail and care taken to ensure a safe and successful transport. I really recommend Docshipper for it.

In the event of goods being stuck at customs, Robert [...] is a customs broker you should arguably consider to release your cargo. Once I knew that my scale modeling tools coming from Spain are being withheld at Suvarnabhumi Airport, I resorted to him to release it and handle the last mile delivery. All what he asked me is to send 2 emails to be able to do it! [...] Well guess what, within 48 hours, it was done! I got my parcel at my place in Phuket.

A vice president caught up in the thick of thin things, an EXW shipment of plumbing supplies for irrigation from Eureka California to Costa Rica is definitely not what I’d like to have on my agenda. Robert’s hang-in-there posture toward any arising challenges in shipping. [...] skillfully handled all US export formalities incl. SED/AES filing, not to mention the sea freight from Oakland POL. Everything ended up working out like a charm!

I feel they covered everything. DocShipper shipped a 20- ft Milvan overseas to Laem Chabang for a customer. The team was responsible for shipping the shipping to another country. Having very little knowledge in this area, I didn't know how to organise myself . One week after my arrival on the Asian continent. Marc O. Was available at all times and nearly instant feedback. Made a stressful event much easier and he definitely knows his job.
