Dubai Customs facilitates delivery of humanitarian aid shipments

Dubai: In support of the UAE’s leading role in providing humanitarian aid to needy and affected countries, Dubai Customs continues to facilitate relief shipments dispatched from the International Humanitarian City (IHC).

Their simplified clearance procedures have had a significant impact on the rapid deliveries of humanitarian aid and relief goods from Dubai to the most affected areas in the world, in cases of natural disasters, armed conflicts or other comparable situations.

In this spirit, the Dubai Logistics City Customs Inspection Center held a meeting with the International Humanitarian City to discuss further easing procedures related to the movement of relief shipments to all over the globe. The meeting was attended by Sami Essa, senior manager of Dubai Logistics City Inspection Center; Abdul Basit Al Marzouqi, manager of Dubai South Operations; Boran Najm, head of Logistics Operations; and Jihad Abdel Moula, expert in logistics and supply chains.

“Dubai Customs is strongly committed to providing automated, smooth and expedited clearance process for IHC’s relief shipments to ensure Dubai’s position as a global humanitarian aid hub and help IHC members deliver an effective emergency response action to a growing number of crises around the world,” commented Humaid Al-Rasheed, Director of Land Customs Centers Department. .
