FAQ

Is UDB a courier company for parcels?

No. UDB positions this service for commercial air cargo, not courier or parcel shipments. The best fit is usually larger business cargo, commonly from 1,000 kg and above where route and commodity feasibility supports it.

Which UAE airports can UDB coordinate through?

The public UAE site references DXB, DWC, AUH and SHJ. Actual routing depends on cargo profile, documentation, carrier acceptance and operational feasibility.

Can UDB handle DG, perfume and electronics?

UDB publishes capability signals for DG, regulated fragrances/perfume, ELI/electronics and high-value cargo controls. Each shipment still requires classification, documents and acceptance checks before confirmation.
