Shipping from Dubai to Singapore
We would strongly suggest you start obtaining quotes for shipping to Singapore at least 6-8 weeks before the target move date.
This should provide time to consider your quotations, formally advise the shipping company you have chosen and very importantly, secure your preferred moving dates.
Also, this allows enough time to finalise your visa/travel/shipping documents and all the other formalities you have to contend with before your move. Singapore is a county with quite a bit of red-tape and so this is likely to take more time than you anticipate.
What should I prioritise when moving from the UAE to Singapore?
- Moving your Personal Belongings
- Employment
- Visas / Permits
- Finding a new home
- Bank accounts
- Schools

What is the cost of moving to Singapore from Dubai?
The cost of relocating from Dubai to Singapore depends on a few factors. The most important factor is the volume of furniture. Generally speaking, the more furniture you include in your move, the higher the cost.
Secondly is the Mode of shipping you choose.
You can choose to move your items in your own shipping container, or if you’re moving only a few items and only a small amount of furniture you could choose a shared container.
This is known as “Groupage” in the moving industry. Of course, sharing a container, or Groupage, is likely more cost-effective than a dedicated container. However, the compromise you make is shipping times can be a little longer.
Approximate shipping cost options to Singapore are as follows:
Full Container (20ft / 40ft) – Starting from AED 14,000 AED
Groupage (Shared Container) – Starting from AED 600/CBM
LCL (Less than a container load) – Starting from AED 450/CBM
Air (Quickest, Most Expensive) – Starting from AED 25/KG

How long does it take to ship my goods to Singapore?
When estimating how long shipping from Dubai to Singapore takes, we have to consider the mode the goods would be travelling in. Air is the quickest and Sea is the slowest.
Approximate transit times
Air Shipment – (3-4 Days)
Sole Container by Sea – (14-20 Days)
Part Container by Sea – (30-40 Days)
Another consideration when estimating time-frame is processing the shipment and customs clearance in Dubai and in Singapore. We would allow up to 1 week at both ends. (Airfreight should take a couple of days at both ends).
