The table shows the cheapest service per band; across every service and weight, prices on this lane run from €32.61 to €682.85. Box size is the parcel each band was quoted with. Send something bigger at the same weight and the courier charges volumetric weight instead, length × width × height in centimetres, divided by 5000, which moves the parcel up a band. All 11 bands are priced on this lane.
Common questions
How much does it cost to send a parcel to Dubai and the UAE from Ireland?
A 2 kg parcel sent from Ireland to Dubai and the UAE costs from €54.13 with FedEx, the cheapest of 7 prices we hold at that band on 14 August 2026. Prices on the lane start at €32.61 for a 0.5 kg parcel and reach €281.87 for a 30 kg one.
What is the cheapest way to send a parcel to Dubai and the UAE from Ireland?
The cheapest price we hold to Dubai and the UAE is €32.61 with FedEx on FedEx International Connect Plus®, for a 0.5 kg parcel quoted 4–5 days. That one is collected from your own address. Weigh and measure the box before you compare: couriers charge in bands, so a 2.4 kg parcel prices at the 3 kg band, and a big light box is charged on volumetric weight instead of what the scales say.
How long does delivery to Dubai and the UAE take?
Couriers quote 2 to 6 working days for a parcel sent from Ireland to Dubai and the UAE, across the 76 prices we hold. The fastest estimate is 2–3 days with FedEx on FedEx International Priority. The cheapest service quotes 4–5 days, so price and speed pull against each other here. Estimates count working days from collection, and customs clearance sits outside them.
Do I need a customs declaration for Dubai and the UAE?
Yes. The UAE is outside the EU customs union, so every parcel from Ireland carries a customs declaration: a CN22 for lower-value goods, a CN23 above the threshold. Describe the contents plainly and give the real value. A vague description is the usual reason a parcel is held.
What can I not send to Dubai?
The UAE restricts more than most destinations. Alcohol, pork products, e-cigarettes and printed or recorded material that breaches local law are the usual causes of a parcel being held at customs in Dubai, and every courier publishes its own prohibited list on top of that. Read both before you pay.
Worth knowing
Prices move in bands
Couriers price in steps, so we quote in the same steps. A 2.4 kg parcel prices at the 3 kg band here and at the 3 kg band when you book, round up, never down. The weight that counts is the heavier of the actual weight and the volumetric one.
What the number includes
Each price is the total the booking site quoted for that service on the day we checked, with VAT treated exactly as they treat it. We don’t add a fee and we never take payment.
Cheapest isn’t fastest
The cheapest service on this lane is rarely the quickest: €32.61 buys 4–5 days with FedEx, while the fastest estimate we hold is 2–3 days with FedEx. Compare both before you book.
Addresses and timing
Where these were quoted to
Collection is quoted from a Dublin address and delivery to a reference address in United Arab Emirates. Your own Eircode and the delivery address can move the number a little, so the exact price is confirmed at booking.
Working days, not calendar days
Transit estimates are the courier’s own, counted in working days from collection rather than from the moment you book. Customs clearance sits outside them, and a paperwork query can add days on this lane.
Booking happens elsewhere
Not here. Each service links out to our partner’s secure booking site with that service selected, and the price shown is confirmed there before you pay.
