UAE Market: RoX 01 High-End Breakthrough, Dubai Police Procurement

The UAE is one of the most open and internationalized automotive markets in the Middle East and an important transshipment hub for Chinese brands entering the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. In July 2026, combined sales of passenger vehicles and light commercial vehicles in the UAE reached 28,000 units, up 35% year-on-year and 20% month-on-month, with Chinese brands capturing 29% overall market share.

Transport Routes and Transit Times

The UAE route departs through Khorgos port, transiting through Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Iran directly to the UAE, covering Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and other major cities in 12 to 18 days. Sanctions-sensitive cargo can take the Caspian Sea corridor through the Caucasus into the Middle East in 15 to 18 days, bypassing Russia. The LHZ-TIR Dubai hub covers distribution across all of the UAE and the Middle East market.

Customs Clearance and Delivery: Local Certification Plus Nationwide Door-to-Door

The UAE is not an EAEU member state and applies independent tariff and certification systems for imported vehicles. The UAE is a left-hand drive country, and imported vehicles must comply with UAE technical regulations. LHZ Auto UAE Operation Center provides full-chain services from demand analysis, model matching, and compliance certification consulting to customs clearance delivery. Destinations cover major cities including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah, with door-to-door delivery available.

Road Plus Rail Dual-Channel System

The UAE route also provides China-Europe Railway Express rail-to-truck transfer products, using railway car carriers for trunk transport from China to Kazakhstan, with each wagon loading 10 vehicles and each train carrying 290 vehicles. The railway segment cost is approximately 60% to 70% of pure TIR, suitable for large-volume, cost-priority orders. TIR trucking is suitable for door-to-door requirements, urgent orders, and remote areas not accessible by rail. The dual channels flexibly switch, providing diversified capacity assurance for annual deliveries in the UAE market.
