MSDS-NON DG

Goods under IATA Special Provisions A67 require a MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet).

It is not required for all, however shipments can be held by local authority in United Arab Emirates after screening due to lack of MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) or NON DG (Dangerous Goods) declaration letter from the shipper resulting to misconnections and impacting end-to-end service.

It would be advisable for all shipments originating, transiting and terminating for UAE to have MSDS or NON DG declaration from shipper enclosed in the shipment and copies to be uploaded in IDIS.

Clearance Comments

If the shipment is released by customs, delivery is made the Next Business Day after arrival. Shipments consigned to commercial entities (Business Establishments) regardless of the value will be detained by customs for a formal entry. In these cases, a detention notice is sent to the consignee. The consignee can then decide to perform customs clearance with UPS or use a third party broker. Shipments consigned to individuals that do not exceed a (CIF) Cost, Insurance and Freight value of US$3000.00 may be deemed Non-Commercial and therefore may be cleared upon arrival via a simplified entry process. Shipments of letters are not impacted by this process and therefore will be cleared on arrival. However, large document shipments consigned to a business establishment will be impacted.
