How a shipment travels from Riyadh to Algeria

Riyadh has no seaport, so your belongings are packed at home and then a closed truck takes them to Jeddah Islamic Port (about 950 km, one to two days), because sailing from Jeddah through the Red Sea and the Suez Canal is the shortest route to North Africa.

From Jeddah the container sails the Red Sea through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean, reaching Algiers, Oran, Bejaia, Skikda or Annaba in 12 – 18 days depending on the shipping line and transshipment.

After arrival the container is cleared at the port within several working days, then taken to your address, unloaded and the furniture reassembled, which is why times are quoted door to door, not port to port.

The trip step by step

At Algeria’s ports the container is inspected and matched against the list, then released once any dues are paid, so we prepare the list in Arabic and French with the condition and value of items before sailing, which shortens clearance.

Shipping prices from Riyadh to Algeria

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 Riyadh to Algeria

Riyadh homes and villas often have large majlis sets, full kitchens and heavy wooden bedrooms, so work starts with a survey or photos. A carpenter dismantles kitchens, wardrobes and beds and numbers every part, packers wrap each piece in layers suited to a long sea voyage, and the supervisor writes the packing list in front of you with a French translation for 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 Riyadh

Every district of Riyadh, north, south, east and west, plus Al Kharj, Diriyah and Al Muzahmiyah. Shared loads are consolidated in our Riyadh warehouse before moving to the port.

Shared freight or a full container?

Car shipping from Riyadh to Algeria

Cars are shipped to Algeria by sea on a roll-on/roll-off vessel where the car is driven aboard, or inside a closed container, after their condition is documented. The certificate of change of residence covers the car under conditions: it must be new or under five years old, not diesel, and its value together with the belongings must fall within the set cap.

• Price: a sedan from SAR 5,550 by sea
• Age: new or under five years, not diesel
• Documents: car invoice, registration, export certificate and export plates
• Financed car: needs a no-objection letter from the finance provider

Air freight from Riyadh to Algeria

Documents and urgent parcels fly from King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh to Algiers, Oran or Constantine in 3 – 5 days door to door, priced by actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher.

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 92. 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 Algeria

The certificate of change of residence lets an Algerian citizen returning for good bring in a car, furniture, household items and appliances with a customs exemption, provided they have lived legally abroad for at least three consecutive years, are registered with the consulate and have not used the certificate before. It is issued by the embassy in Riyadh within days and is valid for 6 months.

1. Certificate of change of residence: from the Algerian embassy in Riyadh
2. Consular registration card: and a passport copy
3. Residence card: with proof of three consecutive years
4. Inventory of belongings: with condition and value
5. Sworn statement: and the car invoice if any

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

What cannot be shipped to Algeria

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 Riyadh to Algeria

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

Steps to ship from Riyadh to Algeria

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: by closed truck to Jeddah port
6. Sailing and clearance: at the destination port
7. Delivery: and reassembly at your address

Delivery across Algeria

Temporary storage

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

What you may pay in Algeria besides the shipping price

• Duties and tax: on anything beyond the exemption cap
• Port storage: if documents are late
• Port clearance: the Algerian broker’s fee
• A car outside the conditions: is subject to duties

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 Riyadh to Algeria

• 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 to Algeria, sorting before shipping has a clearer effect on the bill, so we advise shipping majlis sets, carpets, good wooden bedrooms and used appliances, and not shipping new appliances in their boxes, since they may be treated as goods.

E-commerce parcels and samples

For online stores and small businesses in Riyadh we ship parcels and samples to their customers in Algeria 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 Algeria to Saudi Arabia

If you are moving back from Algeria to Riyadh 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.
