03 — Rate band, Alwar → Saudi Arabia

Starting rates. Real pricing depends on weight.

Saudi is slightly more expensive than UAE because of customs handling and stricter clearance, but still one of the cheapest international lanes from Alwar. Final price depends on actual or volumetric weight (whichever is greater) plus the international fuel surcharge in force. GST extra.

Starting per-kg rates

  • Express (5–7 days, door)from ₹700 / kg
  • Economy (7–11 days, door)from ₹500 / kg
  • Min billable weight0.5 kg
  • Pickup from AlwarFree at 5 kg+

Volumetric formula: (L × W × H cm) ÷ 5000.

Worked example

A 2 kg parcel — say a wedding outfit plus a stack of Islamic-respectful books for a Riyadh-resident family:

  • Express, 2 kg × ₹700≈ ₹1,400
  • + fuel surcharge (~25%)≈ ₹350
  • + GST 18%≈ ₹315
  • Approx total, express≈ ₹2,360

Indicative only. Fuel surcharge and rate cards change.

04 — Customs & documentation

What you’ll need at pickup.

Saudi Customs Authority enforces Sharia-aligned import rules and SFDA pharmaceutical regulations. Paperwork errors cause real delays. We’ll walk you through it before pickup.

KYC of the sender

One photo ID — Aadhaar, passport or driving licence. We photograph it at pickup. For high-value parcels we also recommend a sender’s passport copy.

Commercial invoice

For commercial goods (including Bhiwadi industrial-component B2B for Aramco-vendor supply), a printed invoice listing items, quantity and value with HS codes. For personal gifts, a written declaration with honest value. The recipient’s Iqama (residency permit) speeds clearance assistance — share it if available.

Prescription (medicines)

Saudi’s SFDA is strict. For tablets to a Saudi-resident family member: prescription with doctor’s registration, sealed strips only, recipient’s Iqama on file. No injectables, no narcotics, no liquid medicines, no controlled substances.

05 — Saudi-specific restrictions

What Saudi Arabia doesn’t let in.

Saudi customs is the strictest in the Gulf. Sharia-state import rules, blanket alcohol prohibition, and active enforcement around religious-content material. Items shipped against them are seized; serious offences carry serious penalties — be careful with anything ambiguous.

Don’t even try

  • All pork products — every form, including gelatin-pork additives. Haram, seized at customs.
  • All alcohol — absolute zero tolerance. Even cooking essences with alcohol traces. Penalties are severe.
  • Non-Islamic religious items — Bibles other than personal use, Torahs, Hindu murtis with figurative iconography are routinely flagged. Declare decorative handicraft as decorative, not as religious icons.
  • Pictures or depictions deemed un-Islamic, gambling materials — flagged at customs.
  • E-cigarettes, recreational drugs, CBD — drug trafficking can carry the death penalty in Saudi Arabia. Do not ship anything questionable.
  • Israeli-flagged products, books critical of Islam/Saudi Arabia/the royal family, secular media flagged — seized.
  • Fresh fruit, plants, seeds — Saudi Customs Authority phytosanitary rules are strict.

Allowed with care

  • Industrial-component B2B (Bhiwadi to Aramco-vendor supply) — small mechanical parts, fasteners, prototype components. Ship with HS codes and full B2B invoice.
  • Textiles and sarees — block-print, lehengas, dupattas, dohar/khadi cotton. Declare fair value.
  • Islamic-respectful books — Qurans, prayer accessories, Islamic literature, secular textbooks.
  • Prescription tablets — sealed strip, prescription, recipient’s Iqama, SFDA-compliant labelling.
  • Non-precious jewellery, small electronics, papier-mâché — declare make, model, value.
  • Decorative handicraft (Hindu motifs declared as decorative, not religious) — papier-mâché, miniature painting reproductions, brass decor.
06 — What goes Alwar → Saudi Arabia

Bhiwadi industrial-component B2B to Aramco-vendor supply chain

MIA and Bhiwadi cluster supply Saudi industrial-component buyers and Aramco-vendor procurement teams in Riyadh, Jeddah and the Eastern Province (Dammam/Khobar) — fasteners, brackets, plastic-injection parts, prototype castings. Always express with HS-code invoice.

NCR-IT family parcels

Indian-NCR-IT residents in Alwar/Bhiwadi spillover with Saudi-resident relatives — books, bedsheets, kitchen tools (no leather, no ghee mithai), Islamic-respectful clothing. Shipped to Riyadh, Jeddah, Khobar.

Wedding outfits to Saudi-Indian weddings

Lehengas, sherwanis, jewellery boxes (non-precious), mehendi accessories. Common pattern: bride or groom in Saudi Arabia, family in Alwar — ship 3 weeks ahead.

Hajj/Umrah pilgrim returns and forward-care

Pilgrims from Alwar shipping pilgrimage souvenirs and zamzam-bottle gifts back to family — and forward-care packages from family to relatives during pilgrimage season. Both directions handled.

Signed contracts, invoices, certificates of origin, originals for Saudi work-permit or trade-licence renewals. Express, tracked.

B2B handicraft to Indian restaurants

Block-print fabrics, decor, table linen for Indian restaurants in Riyadh’s Olaya, Jeddah’s Tahliya. Commercial invoice mandatory; declare as decorative handicraft.

08 — Three questions about Saudi Arabia shipments

Asked most often.

Why is Saudi customs so strict on religious items?

Saudi Arabia is a Sharia state — its import rules treat non-Islamic religious material with a level of caution that surprises first-time senders. Bibles other than for personal use are flagged, and Hindu murtis with figurative iconography can get held. The practical workaround: declare decorative items honestly as decorative handicraft, not as religious icons. A papier-mâché Ganesh declared as a ‘decorative figurine’ generally clears; the same item declared as a ‘Hindu deity for puja’ may not.

Can you ship Bhiwadi industrial-component B2B to Aramco vendors?

Yes — this is a regular B2B lane. We need: a printed commercial invoice with HS codes for each component, value per item (real value, not under-declared), the recipient procurement team’s contact (in Riyadh, Jeddah, or the Eastern Province), and the supplier’s GSTIN. For ISO-certified parts, we attach the certificate copy. Saudi customs at Riyadh and Dammam clears B2B paperwork-clean consignments in 48–72 hours.

Can you ship to or from Hajj/Umrah pilgrims?

Yes, both directions, though the volume is heavier inverse — Saudi to Alwar, with pilgrims forwarding souvenirs and zamzam-bottle gifts back home. From Alwar to Saudi we ship forward-care parcels from family during the pilgrimage season: clothing, prescription tablets (with Iqama), sealed dry food. Religious souvenirs flow back via the same lane with full documentation.
