Depending on your personal situation, you may consider shipping personal or household items to the UAE. This, however, can be costly and inconvenient, so we often recommend that you bring as much as possible with you on the plane, in checked luggage.
The price of shipping will greatly vary depending on a couple of factors. Some things you will want to consider before making this decision are:
- Where you’re traveling from: The further, the more expensive
- How many things you want to bring, and their size and weight: The bigger and heavier, the more expensive
- Your personal situation: How long you are planning to staying for, how many things you need, do you have storage options in your home country, etc…
- Is it cheaper to just buy these things in the UAE instead of shipping them?
