Syria Freight Forwarders
Qube Cargo arranges freight forwarding to and from Syria for commercial cargo and specialist shipments. Depending on the goods, route and timescale, freight can be moved using air, sea or road transport, or a combination of services where required.
Shipments between the UK and Syria require careful planning around the cargo, consignee and current import and export requirements. Our team can help establish the appropriate freight option and the information required before the shipment is booked.
For exports from Great Britain, businesses will generally need the appropriate customs declaration and a GB EORI number. Additional licences or certificates may also be required depending on the goods being exported.
Tell us what you are shipping, where it needs to go and when it is required, and we can assess the freight options available.

Shipping to Syria
Shipping and Trade Requirements for Syria
Freight to Syria needs to be assessed according to the goods being shipped, their intended use and the parties involved in the transaction. UK sanctions and trade controls remain in place in a number of areas, so requirements should be checked before cargo is accepted for transport.
Current restrictions include controls affecting certain chemical and biological weapons-related goods and technology, internal repression goods and interception and monitoring equipment. Financial sanctions can also apply when dealing with designated individuals, businesses and organisations.
For UK exporters, this makes accurate information about the cargo particularly important. Commodity codes, the consignee, end use, shipment value and any applicable export licence or certificate should be established as part of the export process. HMRC’s export declaration guidance requires information including the commodity code, value, weight, packaging and destination.
Requirements can change, so each shipment should be checked against the current rules rather than relying on the requirements that applied to an earlier consignment.
Planning Freight to and from Syria
Moving freight to or from Syria must be planned around the cargo, collection and delivery points, available transport routes, and any controls that apply to the shipment. The best option depends on what is being moved, its dimensions and weight, where it needs to go, and how quickly it is required.
For UK shipments, we should also check the goods and parties involved against current trade and financial sanctions requirements before arranging transport. Although a number of UK sanctions relating to Syria have been removed, restrictions remain on certain goods and technology, and designated individuals and entities remain subject to financial sanctions.
Qube Cargo can assess the shipment’s transport requirements and determine the appropriate freight solution based on the cargo and destination.
Freight Destinations Across Syria
Freight requirements can vary considerably depending on the collection or delivery point in Syria. Qube Cargo can arrange shipments to destinations including Damascus, Aleppo, Homs, Latakia, Hama, Raqqa, Deir ez-Zor, and Al-Hasakah, subject to the cargo, route, and current operating conditions.
Tell us the origin and destination of your shipment, together with the type of goods, dimensions, weight and required delivery timescale. We can then assess the available transport options and plan the movement accordingly.
Syria Freight Forwarding by Air, Sea and Land
The most appropriate way to move freight to or from Syria depends on the cargo, shipment size, origin and destination, timescale and the routes available at the time of booking. Qube Cargo can assess air, sea and road freight options and arrange the movement around the requirements of the individual shipment.
Air freight can be considered for urgent, higher-value or time-sensitive cargo, while sea freight may be more appropriate for larger commercial consignments and containerised freight. Road transport can also form part of the route, particularly where cargo is moving through neighbouring countries or requires onward delivery within the region.
For UK exports, the transport method does not remove the need for the correct customs declaration or any applicable export controls. The goods, consignee and end use should be checked before the shipment is booked, particularly where controlled goods or sanctioned parties could be involved.
Specialist Freight Services to Syria
Some shipments to Syria need more than a standard freight service. Depending on the cargo and destination, Qube Cargo can assess requirements for urgent freight, groupage, dangerous goods, and humanitarian shipments, along with the appropriate customs and transport arrangements.
Specialist or controlled cargo must be assessed individually. Dangerous goods require the correct classification, documentation and packaging for the chosen mode of transport, while goods subject to UK export controls may require additional checks or licensing before they can be shipped.
Complex and Specialist Freight to Syria
Not every shipment to Syria fits a standard freight service. Oversized machinery, dangerous goods, urgent consignments and cargo requiring additional handling can all involve different transport, documentation and compliance requirements.
Qube Cargo can assess the shipment before movement is arranged, taking into account the type of goods, dimensions and weight, collection and delivery points, timescale and any restrictions that may apply. Where a shipment requires specialist handling or a combination of transport services, we can determine the options available and plan the movement accordingly.
Certain goods and transactions involving Syria remain subject to UK sanctions and export controls. Controlled cargo may require additional checks or licensing, and the parties and intended end use of the goods may also need to be considered before shipment.
