Yes. Customs procedures in Kuwait take place before the General Administration of Customs under its rules; we carry out these procedures and their paperwork for you without bypassing any official step. Personal prices include air freight, clearance procedures and door delivery; destination duties and taxes on personal shipments are paid by the recipient. For commercial cargo, the quote states what it covers — shipping, clearance procedures, tax and delivery — before you confirm.
308 cartons (1,163 kg, 7,392 units) of cosmetics from Türkiye to the customer's door in Kuwait in four days from receipt — a case-specific result, not a delivery guarantee. Read the case study. Overall we fly more than 20 tons a week to Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Kuwait.
Personal shipments and luggage: from 20 kg the rate starts at $5.00/kg, falls to $4.50/kg at 30 kg ($135) and is $3.90/kg from 50 kg ($195), including air freight, clearance procedures and door delivery. Commercial cargo has no automatic per-kilo price; it is quoted per shipment.
