Overview

All humanitarian and life serving cargo are cleared at special fast-tracking treatment. Export cargos are subject to scanning except those, which has effect with x-rays. In-transit cargo are not subjected to scanning as they had already been scanned at the point/port of entry and moving with customs seals. No available land for cross-loading export and in-transit trucks nor storage facility on KSA side and no-mans land.

Average customs clearance per truck with clean/query free documents takes within a day. The customs clearance is fully automated; with agent process all documentation for further clearance on-line. There are three mounted scanners two on entry and one at exit side to facilitate/fast track cargo verifications. Additional two mobile scanners are available to support the three-mounted units on need basis.
