It is the process of admitting goods into the UAE for commercial or non-commercial purposes, whether by sea, air or land. The competent customs office will collect the customs taxes "duties" levied on imported goods in accordance with the common customs tariff, excluding goods exempted under the provisions of the GCC Common Customs Law, the Unified Economic Agreement of the GCC Arab states or any other international agreement within the framework of the Council.

It is the process of transfer/selling of goods from a licensed company in the UAE to an importer located outside the country. Customs taxes (duties) are not levied on this type of goods as these goods, which are exported from the local market, are deemed to be duty-paid or locally manufactured.
Export and Re-export declarations (export of national products - temporary exportation - re-export of foreign goods - temporary re-exportation - deposit with the free zones) Issue of Export declaration:
It is the process of transfer/selling of goods from a licensed company in the UAE to an importer located outside the country. Customs taxes (duties) are not levied on this type of goods as these goods, which are exported from the local market, are deemed to be duty-paid or locally manufactured.
Re-export:
It is the process of exporting goods of foreign origin that were previously imported, against a deposit or a bank guarantee (in an amount equivalent to the sum of the customs tax 'duty'), provided that the goods intended to be re-exported are the same imported goods in terms of quality, quantity, indications, signs and brands. The period, during which the goods can stay in the Emirate, may not exceed six months. The deposit will be refunded after the goods exit the country. If part of the goods is sold in the UAE, the customs taxes (duties) will apply to the quantity sold. The remainder of the deposit will be refunded, in addition to the goods of foreign origin that come from the local market.
Transit declaration:
It is the transit of imported goods from outside the UAE for the interest of an importer located outside the UAE. The goods must be addressed in the name of the importer or in the name of a carrier agent licensed by the local licensing authorities on behalf of the importer. The completion of the customs declaration will be merely for registration of the goods while they transit across the territories of the UAE to the final destination. A deposit amount equivalent to the applicable customs taxes (duties) on the total value of goods will be collected to guarantee that the goods exit from the UAE within 30 days from the date of the transaction.
Temporary Admission declaration:
It is the admission of goods of foreign origin into the UAE for specific purposes and periods of time under customs declarations and against financial guarantees equivalent to the applicable customs taxes (duties).
