Al Mellah International Shipping (0580402747) is a shipping company from Jeddah to Oman shipping cars, household appliances, furniture and belongings from every district of Jeddah, Makkah and Taif to Muscat, Sohar, Nizwa and Salalah — by land through the Empty Quarter → Ramlat Khaylah crossing in 5 to 7 days, or by sea from Jeddah Islamic Port to Salalah Port for containers. Prices start from SAR 290 per parcel, SAR 350 per appliance, SAR 1,900 for one room and SAR 2,500 per car.
Shipping from Jeddah to Oman crosses the peninsula from its west to its south-east. That makes cost the key question: what is worth shipping, and how? The answer differs between someone sending a fridge and washing machine to family in Muscat, someone moving a whole apartment, and someone shipping a container of goods to Salalah. This guide sets out the options and the numbers.
💰 Shipping prices from Jeddah to Oman
Prices are “starting from” and vary with volume, the Omani governorate and packing level. Containers and large villas are quoted after the survey.
⚖️ By land to Muscat or by sea to Salalah?
From Jeddah you have two real routes. Land crosses the Kingdom to the Empty Quarter crossing and enters Oman from the north-west near Ibri, making it best for Muscat, Sohar and Nizwa. Sea sails south from Jeddah through Bab el-Mandeb and the Gulf of Aden to Salalah Port on the Arabian Sea — which makes sense for container shipments heading to Dhofar, because Salalah is very far from the border by road.
| Criterion | 🛣️ Land | 🚢 Sea to Salalah |
|---|---|---|
| Transit | 5–7 days to Muscat | 14–21 days door to door |
| Best destination | Muscat, Sohar, Nizwa, Ibri | Salalah and Dhofar |
| Best volume | Up to 30 m³ and cars | Full containers and heavy goods |
| Handling | One loading and unloading | Two ports and container yards |
📺 Shipping appliances and household belongings from Jeddah to Oman
Many of our Jeddah-to-Oman shipments are appliances and household belongings: a fridge, a washing machine, air conditioners, a TV, or a family’s things. These travel consolidated at a per-item price, and need proper preparation to arrive working:
| Appliance | Preparation before shipping | Starts from |
|---|---|---|
| Fridge | Empty and dry 24 hours ahead, secure the shelves, ship upright | SAR 350 |
| Washing machine | Drain the hoses and lock the drum with transit bolts | SAR 350 |

📦 Commercial cargo from Jeddah to Oman
Jeddah’s industrial factories and traders ship to Oman by full truck, consolidated load or sea container. We prepare the commercial invoice and GCC certificate of origin so the exemption applies to national products, plus the importer’s registration in Oman.
🛡️ Our guarantees
🧾 Duties in Oman

🔁 From Oman to Jeddah, and car import conditions
We ship in reverse from Muscat and Salalah to Jeddah. If you are buying a car in Oman for Jeddah, check the used-car age limit (usually 5 years for light vehicles) under current regulations, Saudi standards compliance, and no flood or fire damage before paying the seller.
🌴 Shipping to Salalah from Jeddah: land or sea?
Salalah is the Omani city furthest from the Empty Quarter crossing, so the land route crosses the Omani interior southwards over a long distance. That makes sea freight from Jeddah Islamic Port to Salalah Port sensible for full containers, while consolidated land freight stays cheaper for small loads. In the khareef season (June – September) we double the moisture protection.
| Destination | From Jeddah by land | From Jeddah by sea |
|---|---|---|
| Muscat & Sohar | 5–7 days | Via Sohar for containers |
| Nizwa & Ibri | 5–6 days | Not worthwhile |
| Salalah | 6–8 days | 14–21 days for full containers |
⚖️ How to choose a shipping company from Jeddah to Oman
📍 Jeddah districts we collect from

Before buying a car in Oman to use in Jeddah: Saudi used-car import conditions set the car’s age and standards compliance, so check them with us before paying.
💡 Where does the cost of shipping from Jeddah to Oman go?
Jeddah to Muscat is the longest of all our Gulf lanes, so road transport takes the largest share of the bill, followed by dismantling, packing and reassembly, then clearance at both crossings. That is why the most effective savings are shipping only what is worth it, joining a consolidated trip, and comparing a sea container to Salalah if your destination is Dhofar.
