Important update from Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority.
To facilitate trade and improve supply chain efficiency across customs ports, ZATCA has enabled transit transport operations without requiring a bank guarantee or issuing domestic transit plates.
This move will significantly simplify in-transit cargo movement within Saudi Arabia, reduce administrative barriers, and speed up cargo flows between ports, bonded zones, and land borders.
For logistics operators, this is a positive step that supports faster multimodal operations, improved flexibility for transshipment, and smoother domestic transit movements across the Kingdom.
- Saudi Arabia's Transport General Authority (TGA) announced an extension of the deadline for land freight transport companies to correct their regulatory, licensing, and operational statuses to improve compliance and safety standards.

Handling transshipment operations through #Jeddah to #GCC countries is not only about moving cargo from one mode to another.
It is about coordination, speed, and control across multiple stakeholders.

Port operators, customs, bonded yards, transporters, and agents must all move in sync. One delay in the chain can stop the entire movement.

Transit declarations, customs approvals, and border documentation are as important as the cargo itself. Clean paperwork means faster movement.

The moment cargo arrives at the warehouse, the clock starts. Fast offloading, sorting, and reloading determines how quickly cargo reaches GCC markets.

Sea and air bring cargo to Saudi Arabia, but road transport connects it to UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman. Reliable trucking partners are essential.

Clients, agents, and transporters need constant updates. When everyone knows the status, operations move smoother.

When traditional shipping routes face challenges, SeaโRoad and AirโRoad transshipment via Jeddah becomes a strong alternative corridor for GCC trade.

Saudi Ports Authority Mawani announced the addition of three new Maersk shipping services connecting Jeddah Islamic Port and King Abdullah Port with key regional hubs. The combined capacity of these services reaches 14,400 TEUs.
Service Breakdown
โขWC1: Nhava Sheva โ Mundra โ Salalah โ Jeddah Islamic Port (4,400 TEUs)
โขWC2: Nhava Sheva โ Mundra โ Salalah โ King Abdullah Port โ Jeddah Islamic Port (5,000 TEUs)
โขBAM Feeder: Salalah โ Jeddah Islamic Port (5,000 TEUs)
This expansion strengthens Red Sea connectivity between India, Oman, and Saudi Arabia, increases container capacity into Jeddah and KAEC, and supports Saudi Arabiaโs strategy to position its ports as regional transshipment and logistics hubs.
For logistics operators, this means better vessel frequency, stronger feeder connectivity via Salalah, and improved cargo flow between South Asia and the Kingdom, which can also support GCC distribution and transshipment opportunities via Saudi ports.
As part of #Mawaniโs efforts to enhance global trade flows, three new shipping services operated by Maersk have been added to #Jeddah_Islamic_Port and #King_Abdullah_Port, with a total capacity of 14,400 TEUs, further strengthening the competitiveness of the Kingdomโs ports.
