The UAE to Kuwait road is our main route. MAB Transport (Mukhtar Ahmad Badani Transport LLC) is a Dubai trucking company that sends trucks to Kuwait every day, so you get a direct truck, a fixed price and a team that knows every border on the way.
Route and transit time
Trucks leave Dubai or Abu Dhabi, cross into Saudi Arabia at Ghuwaifat / Batha, transit through the Eastern Province and enter Kuwait at Al Khafji / Nuwaiseeb. The distance is about 1,300–1,450 km and the normal door-to-door time is 3–4 days. During peak periods at the border crossings or if customs clearance takes longer, transit may extend by a few days — we keep you updated at every crossing.
Which truck do you need?
- Flatbed 12–13.6 m — steel, pipes, blocks, pallets (up to 40 t)
- Curtain-side — FMCG, retail and cartons that must stay dry
- Closed box — furniture, electronics and household goods
- Lowbed — machinery and heavy equipment
- Part load / LTL — a few pallets that share a truck to Kuwait
