Welcome to the UAE Trade Ports Directory. In global shipping and logistics, every active port is designated with a unique five-letter code standard established by the United Nations, known as the UN/LOCODE (United Nations Code for Trade and Transport Locations). For example, Jebel Ali Port in Dubai is represented by the code AEJEA, while Khalifa Port in Abu Dhabi is designated as AEKHI. Correctly specifying these codes on your shipping instructions, bills of lading, and customs declarations is critical to ensuring your cargo is routed accurately without administrative delays or customs holds.

The United Arab Emirates serves as a major maritime trade gateway linking East and West. Navigating the logistics network requires precise knowledge of active seaport and airport hubs across the emirates (such as Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Fujairah). Use this searchable directory to verify official port names, check UN/LOCODE designations, and cross-reference the corresponding country origins to keep your supply chain running smoothly.
