Dubai has become one of the top global hubs for car exports—thanks to its wide selection of high-quality vehicles, competitive pricing, and efficient logistics network. Exporting a car from Dubai can be a seamless process, especially when you have an experienced partner by your side. Whether you’re looking to export a luxury car, a pickup truck, or a commercial vehicle, the process can be straightforward with the right guidance.
At S.K. Motors, we’ve been helping customers worldwide with exporting cars from Dubai for over 25 years. Here’s our step-by-step guide to make your experience smooth and hassle-free.
Step 1: Choose the Right Vehicle
The first step is to select a car that meets your requirements—brand, model, mileage, condition (new or used), and budget. In Dubai, you can find a vast selection of:
- Left-hand and right-hand drive vehicles
- New and used cars
- Japanese, American, European, Korean, Chinese and GCC(Middle East) Specs
💡 Tip: At S.K. Motors, we stock a wide variety of SUVs, sedans, crossovers, hatchbacks, pickups, electrics, vans, minivans, coasters, jeeps and commercial vehicles for immediate export.
Step 2: Verify Export Eligibility
Not all cars are eligible for export to every country due to local regulations (e.g., age restrictions, emissions standards, right-hand vs. left-hand drive). It’s essential to confirm:
- Age limit for imports (e.g., 5 years max in some African countries)
- Emissions compliance (e.g., Euro 4, 5, or 6 standards)
- Necessary documentation for clearance
Step 3: Complete the Purchase
Once the car is selected:
- Finalize the price
- Secure a purchase agreement
- Pay via bank transfer or certified payment method
💼 At S.K. Motors, we ensure transparent pricing and secure payment channels.
Step 4: Arrange Documentation
Accurate documentation is key to a successful export. The following documents are typically prepared:
- Export certificate from RTA (Roads and Transport Authority)
- Original invoice and proof of payment
- Bill of lading (for sea shipments)
- Vehicle clearance certificate
We handle all documentation and share digital copies with you before shipping upon request.
Step 5: Choose Shipping Method
You can select a shipping option based on your needs and location. Customers may choose from multiple shipping providers, or arrange shipping with any other company of their choice. Options include:
-
RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) – Cost-effective and ideal for standard vehicles
-
Container Shipping – Safer, recommended for luxury cars, multiple units, or long-distance destinations
-
Air Freight – Fastest option, typically used for high-end or urgent exports
🌍 We export vehicles to over 78 countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, and more.
Step 6: Track Shipment & Prepare for Arrival
Once shipped, we provide you with:
- Shipping line details
- Tracking number
- Estimated arrival time
🧾 Our logistics team stays in touch until you receive the car in your port of destination.
