Annual bilateral trade between UAE and USA exceeds $24 billion. The UAE is the US's largest Arab world trading partner. Key UAE exports to USA: petroleum products, aluminium, gold, and manufactured goods. Key US exports to UAE: aircraft, machinery, vehicles, and agricultural products.
US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) processes over 25 million formal entries annually. CBP's Automated Broker Interface (ABI) handles electronic customs entry filing. All shipments over $2,500 in value require formal customs entry. Shipments under $800 qualify for de minimis entry with no duty.
The Port of Los Angeles / Long Beach complex is the busiest US container port, handling ~45% of US imports from Asia and Middle East. For East Coast deliveries, Port of New York and New Jersey (PNYNJ) is the largest East Coast port.
For air cargo, New York JFK (John F. Kennedy International) is the largest US international air cargo hub. Chicago O'Hare handles significant overnight cargo volumes. Miami International Airport is the primary hub for Latin America-bound UAE cargo transiting through USA.
US import compliance involves multiple agencies beyond Customs: FDA for food/pharma/devices, USDA for agricultural products, EPA for chemicals and vehicles, FCC for electronics, and Fish & Wildlife for CITES-listed items.
The US Importer of Record (IOR) must have a US address and Employer Identification Number (EIN) or Social Security Number. Foreign companies shipping to USA must appoint a US-based customs broker or use a third-party IOR service. Dazro connects UAE exporters with licensed US customs brokers in all major US ports.
US Section 301 tariffs apply to Chinese-origin goods at rates of 7.5–25%. UAE-origin goods are NOT subject to Section 301. However, goods manufactured in China and merely assembled or re-exported via UAE may still be subject to Section 301 based on origin determination rules.
Dazro advises UAE exporters on substantive transformation rules — specifically, what level of processing or value addition in UAE qualifies goods as UAE-origin and therefore exempt from Section 301. This is particularly relevant for electronics, textiles, and steel/aluminium products.
