UAE–India: The World's Most Trafficked Sea Route

India is the UAE's largest trading partner with annual bilateral trade exceeding $85 billion. The UAE-India Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), in force since May 2022, has reduced tariffs on thousands of goods — creating significant duty savings for UAE exporters.

Dazro handles UAE-to-India shipments via all modes. Sea freight from Jebel Ali to JNPT (Nhava Sheva) takes 8–12 days. Air freight to Mumbai or Delhi takes 3–4 hours. We manage Indian customs clearance via ICEGATE, prepare shipping bills and Bills of Entry, and handle GST documentation.

Mundra Port (Adani Ports) in Gujarat is India's largest private port and the second busiest container terminal. Chennai, Kolkata (Kolkata Dock System), Cochin (Kochi), and Vizag (Visakhapatnam) cover South and East India.
