Car Shipping from Dubai to None
Ship your car from Dubai to Spain inside a sealed, dedicated container — door-to-port to Valencia. Delta Global handles the full UAE export and points you to EU registration (Certificate of Conformity) and any Transfer-of-Residence duty relief you qualify for.

Why Ship Your Car in a Container
Enclosed container
- Fully sealed — protected from salt air, weather and deck damage
- No third-party drivers; sealed at Jebel Ali, opened at destination
- Non-running, project and modified cars welcome (winched in)
- Load spare parts & declared personal effects around the car
- Reaches any container port worldwide
RoRo (drive-on deck)
- Car sits exposed on an open vehicle deck
- Handled and driven by port staff
- Running cars only
- No personal items inside
- Limited to RoRo terminals
Container shipping is a premium, secure service — dearer and slightly slower to arrange than RoRo. For any car you value, that trade-off is worth it.
How Many of Your Cars Fit in One Container?
Every shipment is your own dedicated container — we don’t share your box with other owners. Cars are driven or winched in, then chocked and lashed to the securing points. Switch the tabs to see capacity by container size.
20ft — 1 car
A single vehicle, floor-loaded and lashed to the container’s securing rings. The most secure option for one high-value or classic car.
40ft — 2–4 cars
Two cars loaded flat nose-to-tail, or three to four using purpose-built steel racking — strong economics for dealers.
45ft High-Cube — up to 6 cars
With racking, a 45ft HC carries up to six vehicles depending on their size — the lowest cost per car for bulk movements. The real limit is payload weight, so sedans stack better than large SUVs.

Car Shipping Dubai to Spain — FAQ
Do I need a Certificate of Conformity?
Yes — a CoC confirms EU type-approval and is required to register in Spain; without one an individual approval is needed.
Can returning residents avoid duty and VAT?
Often yes — EU Transfer-of-Residence relief can waive import duty and VAT if you meet the residence and ownership conditions; registration tax may still apply.
How long does it take to ship a car from Dubai to Spain?
Around 16–20 days from Jebel Ali to Valencia, depending on sailing. We confirm the current transit when you book.
Do you offer shared containers to Spain?
No — every shipment is your own dedicated container; with racking we can load up to six of your cars per 45ft high-cube.
