Appliances Shipping Cost from Cairo to Kuwait City

Kuwait prohibits importing pork, alcoholic beverages, gambling machines, pornographic materials, and narcotics. Firearms and explosives require special import procedures. Prepared by our U.S. Embassies abroad.

Kuwait's import regulations include a system of duties and taxes levied on imported goods, calculated based on the type and value of the shipment. These charges represent a significant factor to consider when determining the overall cost of shipping to Kuwait and are essential components of a sound pricing strategy.

Shipping a 20 lb package costs roughly $20-$40 for ground services (UPS, FedEx, USPS Ground Advantage) for shorter distances, but can range from $13 to over $100+ for faster or international options, depending heavily on the carrier, speed, and distance (zone). USPS Ground Advantage is often economical, while faster FedEx/UPS options like Next Day Air become much pricier, and sometimes splitting into lighter boxes (under 20 lbs) can be cheaper with USPS.
