Customs notes for the United Arab Emirates
UAE customs requires an accurate commercial invoice with HS codes for commercial shipments; personal parcels under the UAE's personal-use exemption thresholds generally clear faster with a simple content declaration. Duty-paid shipping is commonly used on this corridor for personal parcels to avoid the receiver being contacted for payment before delivery.
Prohibited & restricted item highlights
- Alcohol and pork products (personal parcels only, subject to strict limits)
- Narcotics and any drug-related paraphernalia
- Counterfeit goods and unauthorised copies of branded products

This is not an exhaustive list โ see the full prohibited-items guide for how restrictions vary by destination.
