Federal Express has launched a new customs clearance facility at Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ).
The facility is equipped with in-house clearance capabilities, enabling FedEx to handle shipment clearance procedures on behalf of its customers to enhance operational efficiency and offer greater convenience to businesses.
The new facility supports the clearance of packages shipped to and from RAKEZ through a range of FedEx express air and deferred road services, simplifying the import and export process.
“This facility demonstrates our commitment to strengthening the UAE’s logistics ecosystem by continuously investing in the enhancement of our products and services,” commented Taarek Hinedi, Vice President, FedEx Middle East and Africa Operations.
“An integral part of our commitment to empowering businesses in RAKEZ is facilitating their expansion plans and providing them with seamless access to international markets,” remarked Ramy Jallad, Group CEO, Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ).
A robust logistics network will be key to supporting Ras Al Khaimah’s growth, particularly its thriving manufacturing and industrial sector, which contributes approximately 30% to the Emirate’s overall GDP.
