Congestion at several United Arab Emirates ports is affecting regional container transportation.
Transfers from Khor Fakkan and Fujairah to Jebel Ali, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi are currently taking approximately 12–15 days, compared with around five days previously.
These extended transfer periods create additional planning considerations for businesses moving cargo through multiple UAE gateways.
Importers and exporters should review port routing, transfer arrangements, and delivery schedules when coordinating affected shipments.
Compass Forwarding recognizes the importance of monitoring regional operating conditions and coordinating transportation arrangements across international gateways.
