Choose the right delivery speed

For a Dubai collection, book Same-Day before 16:00 for delivery by 21:00. Choose Standard for the next business day. Express uses a dedicated driver; allow for the actual road journey, access checks and the recipient’s opening hours rather than assuming a fixed arrival time.

  • Sending to an office? Check when reception closes before choosing an evening service.
  • Need a return trip or collection of signed originals? Describe it separately so the requested journey is clear.

Prepare the parcel and both addresses

Seal documents in an envelope and protect parcels against movement inside the box. Select the correct size and tell us about fragile contents before collection. Government, bank or legal-office deliveries may require a named recipient, authorisation and a permitted handover point; carrying a document does not include processing it.

  • Add building, unit, contact numbers and any gate or loading-bay instructions at both ends.
  • Keep the recipient available and include any delivery reference needed at reception.

Can it arrive the same day?

The reverse direction has its own route page with the from-price — prices are symmetric per item and speed, plus 5% VAT shown before you pay.

I send on this route regularly. Do you have business rates?
