How a shipment travels from Jeddah to Turkey

Jeddah is the Saudi city closest to Turkey by sea, because Jeddah Islamic Port itself is the departure point; after packing at your home the container usually reaches the port the same day. From Jeddah it sails the Red Sea through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean, reaching Mersin and Iskenderun in 8 – 12 days, and Izmir or Ambarli in Istanbul in 12 – 16 days.

After arrival the container is cleared at the Turkish port within several working days, then taken to your address, unloaded and the furniture reassembled. Because Jeddah needs no long road leg to the port, it is the fastest and best-value Saudi city on the Turkey route.

The trip step by step

At Turkish ports the container is inspected and matched against the list, then released once any dues are paid, so we prepare the list in Turkish and English with appliance serial numbers before sailing, which shortens clearance.

Shipping prices from Jeddah to Turkey

We price furniture by volume in cubic metres. Prices include dismantling, packing, loading, transport to the port, sea freight, delivery and reassembly at your address. Clearance at the destination port, local duties and taxes, and insurance are separate items we explain before booking.

Household move prices by size

Destination clearance, local fees and insurance are separate items.

Single items and parcels

Single items carry a minimum invoice. If your volume is close to 25 cubic metres, ask for the full-container price, which is usually cheaper than shared freight and faster to clear.

What sets the bill?

Furniture moving from Jeddah to Turkey

Jeddah homes need packing that accounts for coastal humidity before a sea voyage: the carpenter dismantles kitchens, wardrobes and beds and numbers every part, packers wrap each piece in moisture-resistant layers, and the supervisor writes the packing list in front of you with a translation for Turkish customs.

Packing for sea freight

A sea voyage is longer than a road trip and the container faces humidity and temperature changes, so we pack for the sea, not just the road: a blanket layer for wood, then bubble wrap, then corrugated corner protection, desiccant bags inside the container, heavy pieces at the bottom and the load strapped with belts and separating boards.

Dismantling by carpenters

Large wardrobes, bedrooms and kitchens are dismantled by carpenters who know the assembly order; every panel is numbered and screws go into numbered bags tied to the piece, so the furniture goes back together in your new home exactly as it was.

Where we collect in Jeddah

Every district of Jeddah: the north such as Obhur, Ash Shati and Al Mohammadiyah, the centre such as Ar Rawdah, As Safa and As Salamah, the south such as Al Hamdaniyah and As Samer, plus Makkah, Taif and Rabigh.

Shared freight or a full container?

Car shipping from Jeddah to Turkey

Cars are shipped to Turkey by sea, either on a roll-on/roll-off (RoRo) vessel where the car is driven aboard, or inside a closed container for luxury cars. We document the car with photos and the odometer reading before handing it to the port. Before shipping, check the entry regime: Turkey usually allows foreigners a temporary import tied to the length of their residence or work permit with a financial guarantee, while permanent import carries a special consumption tax, high duties and conditions on the car’s age.

• Price: a sedan from SAR 5,550 by sea; larger and luxury cars by size
• Documents: registration, export certificate and export plates, owner passport, and insurance valid in Turkey
• Temporary import: tied to the residence or work permit period, with a guarantee
• Financed car: needs a no-objection letter from the finance provider

Air freight from Jeddah to Turkey

Documents and urgent parcels fly from King Abdulaziz Airport in Jeddah to Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir or Antalya in 2 – 4 days door to door.

Air freight is charged by actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher, so it suits documents, permitted personal medicines, gifts and small devices, not furniture.

Cartons, gifts and dates

Clothes cartons, gifts and packed dates travel in the shared sea load; a standard carton starts from SAR 60. Write the receiver’s name and number on every carton, keep liquids away from clothes, and do not overfill cartons so they do not burst when stacked in the container.

Customs and documents in Turkey

Personal effects and used furniture are exempt when transferring residence to Turkey under conditions: the goods must be used, the owner must hold a residence or work permit, and the shipment must arrive within the allowed period relative to the owner’s entry. Clearance usually takes several working days after the container arrives and requires the owner or an agent.

1. Passport: in the same name as the bill of lading
2. Residence or work permit: in Turkey
3. Turkish tax number: Vergi Numarası
4. Lease or title deed: for the address in Turkey
5. Detailed packing list: with brand and serial numbers for appliances
6. Returning Turkish citizens: proof of residence abroad and final return

For more details read Turkish customs for shipments from Saudi Arabia.

What cannot be shipped to Turkey

We go through the list with you before loading, because one prohibited item can hold the whole container at the destination port and add storage charges.

Commercial shipping from Jeddah to Turkey

We ship Jeddah traders’ goods to Turkey in full containers or shared freight, with a commercial invoice, certificate of origin and packing list with HS codes; the importer registered in Turkey clears the goods at the arrival port. We also arrange return shipments of Turkish goods from the same ports to the Kingdom.

Steps to ship from Jeddah to Turkey

1. Send photos: on WhatsApp 0561247112
2. Get the price: by volume, port and city
3. Documents: checked before booking
4. Dismantling and packing: at your home
5. Transport to the port: straight to Jeddah Islamic Port
6. Sailing and clearance: at the destination port
7. Delivery: and reassembly at your address

Delivery across Turkey

Temporary storage

If your home in Turkey is not ready yet, we store your belongings in a closed warehouse in Jeddah on contracts starting from one month, then ship them on the date you choose.

What you may pay in Turkey besides the shipping price

• Duties and tax: on new appliances and items outside the exemption
• Port storage: after free days if documents are late
• Port clearance: the Turkish broker’s fee
• External furniture lift: in some high-rise buildings in Istanbul

Before booking we explain what may be due on your shipment based on your situation, so nothing comes as a surprise on arrival.

How the cost is calculated

Start with the room volumes in the table; if the total passes about 25 cubic metres, compare with the full-container price, then add extra items, cartons and any wooden crates.

The cheapest way to ship from Jeddah to Turkey

• Shared sea freight: for a room, items and cartons
• A full container: for more than about 25 m³
• Reduce volume: leave out old mattresses and particle-board furniture
• Book early: before peak seasons
• Air only for urgent items: since it is priced per kilo

On a long sea voyage, sorting before shipping has a clearer effect on the bill, so we advise shipping majlis sets, carpets, good wooden bedrooms and modern used appliances, and not shipping new appliances in their boxes, since Turkish customs treat them as goods.

E-commerce parcels and samples

For online stores and small businesses in Jeddah we ship parcels and samples to their customers in Turkey in the shared road load, or by air for urgent orders. We collect from your warehouse, label every parcel with the receiver details and send you proof of delivery. Repeated quantities are treated as commercial goods with an invoice and certificate of origin.

How to choose the right shipping company

Price alone is not enough to judge a shipping company: a shipment held at the border or delivered broken costs more than any price difference. Before booking, check the following:

1. Commercial registration and licence: for international shipping and transport
2. Border experience: and filing the Fasah export declaration before departure
3. A clear price: stating what is included: dismantling, packing, reassembly and fees
4. A carpenter for dismantling and reassembly: not just movers
5. Optional insurance: as a percentage of the declared value
6. Tracking and updates: load photos and notices at the border and on arrival

Return shipping from Turkey to Saudi Arabia

If you are moving back from Turkey to Jeddah or any city in the Kingdom, we run the same trip in reverse: a photo survey, dismantling, packing and loading at your address there, then the crossing, delivery and reassembly at your home. Used personal furniture returning with its owner is usually treated as personal effects, provided the packing list is clear and matches the load.

Common mistakes that cost customers

• A vague packing list: invites a full inspection at the port
• New appliances in their boxes: are treated as goods and taxed
• Shipment timing: that does not match the owner’s residence dates
• Prohibited items: hold the container
• Late documents: add port storage charges
• Skipping insurance: on a long sea voyage

Shipment insurance

We recommend insurance for sea freight because the voyage is long and the container passes through several handlings. Insurance is optional, priced as a percentage of the declared value, and covers breakage, damage and loss, with photos of your belongings taken before packing.
