Humanitarian transport to the Middle East: how we work

Mission & Relief Logistics acts as a one-stop-solution for NGOs, foundations, churches and other humanitarian organizations that are active in the countries in the Middle East. Our services go beyond just transport. We offer complete logistics solutions that support the entire process from start to finish.

01

Transport of own or purchased humanitarian goods

Mission & Relief takes care of the transport of your humanitarian goods. Do you have a load of goods for which you are looking for suitable transport? With more than 30 years of experience, we advise on transport options and deliver your goods to their destination. Because we purchase relief goods on a large scale, it is also possible to purchase relief goods from us at considerably lower prices.


02

Transport planning to the country of destination

Our transport planning optimizes the routes, always striving for the most efficient balance between costs, speed and reliability. One of our strongest points is our expertise in last-mile delivery, especially in remote areas where infrastructure is limited. Our partners know the routes and border crossings. We always take the current situation into account to guarantee safe and efficient delivery.


03

Customs documents and storage

We take care of all complex customs procedures, with our specialists ensuring correct customs papers that meet the specific requirements of each country in the Middle East. The complexity of customs regulations in different countries can lead to significant delays without the right expertise. Our specialists are fully aware of the customs requirements that apply to the countries in the Middle East.

We also offer storage warehouses where you can temporarily store your goods, even if these goods are under customs supervision. In this facility we can process and store almost any commodity before final transport. Because this is a bonded warehouse, we can also handle goods in transit.

For international aid transport to the Middle East, we use various forms of transport, depending on the urgency, destination and relief goods to be delivered:

  • Sea transport
    As a cost-effective solution for larger volumes and less time-critical shipments to destinations with access to port facilities
  • Air freight
    For both supply to airports and seaports and for last-mile delivery in the specific countries themselves

Our logistics approach is always customized, taking into account the specific characteristics of each destination, from Iran to Yemen and from Bahrain to Lebanon.

In recent years, we have successfully carried out aid transport to various Middle Eastern countries: from food aid and medical assistance to clothing and other basic necessities to disaster areas or war zones. Thanks to our many years of experience, we can respond flexibly to changing circumstances and we always offer customized solutions that match the specific mission of your humanitarian organization.

Frequently asked questions about our international aid transport to the Middle East

For aid transport to the Middle East, we offer three options: air transport for urgent and lightweight shipments, sea transport for larger volumes, and road transport for local distribution or to neighboring countries. The choice depends on your budget, time pressure, and the nature of the relief goods. We would be happy to advise you on the most suitable option for your specific situation.

Mission & Relief takes care of the complete customs process for aid transport to the Middle East. Our documentation specialists prepare all the necessary papers, including 0% VAT invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin and any special permits for specific goods such as medicines. We take into account the different requirements per country and can in many cases make use of special regulations for humanitarian shipments, which leads to faster release and sometimes exemption from import duties.

The costs for aid transport to the Middle East vary depending on factors such as weight or volume, destination, urgency and nature of the goods. Request a free quote to have the costs for your humanitarian transport calculated.

The following documents are generally required for aid transport to the Middle East: a detailed packing list with description and value of all goods, pro forma invoices, donation letters (for donated goods), certificates of origin, and in some cases specific permits for regulated products such as medicines or telecommunications equipment. Pre-shipment inspections are required for certain Middle Eastern countries. Mission & Relief assists in the preparation and obtaining of all necessary documentation and advises you in good time about any country-specific requirements.

Mission & Relief can provide transport of direct emergency aid. But in all honesty, we must say that other specialized organizations, such as the United Nations, World Food Program and Red Cross, are better equipped for this. This in financial terms and in terms of possibilities (own aircraft, own personnel in many countries around the world). We can of course help you with the transport of emergency aid, but are dependent on the situation on site. Please contact us for more information.
