Overview
Shipping from Dubai to Yemen
MegaSpeed Cargo ships full containers, vehicles, machinery and air cargo from Dubai to Yemen. Containers sail from Jebel Ali to Aden or Mukalla, and air cargo flies to Aden when a service runs. Our network partner office in Yemen handles customs clearance and delivery, and we confirm the current transit time with each quote.
Aden is the main port we use for Yemen, with Mukalla for the east. Sailings and insurance depend on the security situation, so we confirm each routing when you ask.

We screen the goods, the buyer and the end user against current sanctions and export control rules before booking, and we decline cargo we cannot legally move.
