What are the import duties and taxes on shoes in UAE?
UAE import duty on shoes is typically 5% of the CIF value. VAT is 5%, applied on the total (CIF + duty). There are no additional federal taxes. Some free zones offer duty deferral if you re-export.
To calculate total cost, add freight, insurance, and any testing fees. Our MOQs help you start small: 10 pairs per color in-stock, 200 OEM, 500 ODM. Samples are credited against bulk orders.
We can ship to Jebel Ali or Dubai directly. For more on costing, see our MOQ explained or women's shoes.
