en.Wedoany.com Reported - AD Ports Group has announced that the Al Faya Dry Port has been granted the UN/LOCODE (AEALF) by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), a move that further integrates the port into the global multimodal transport trade and logistics ecosystem.
The globally recognized UN/LOCODE system is used in international shipping, logistics, and trade to standardize location identification, streamline customs procedures, and enhance global supply chain efficiency. The issuance of the UN/LOCODE (AEALF) code solidifies the Al Faya Dry Port's status as an internationally recognized inland logistics hub, enabling more efficient cargo movement through interconnected ports, land-based facilities, and multimodal trade corridors.
Saif Al Mazrouei, CEO of the Ports Cluster at AD Ports Group, stated that the UN/LOCODE certification for the Al Faya Dry Port marks a significant milestone in the UAE's further integration into the global trade and transport network. This certification enhances connectivity between ports, inland logistics centers, and multimodal trade corridors, while enabling more efficient cargo transport, streamlined customs processes, and greater supply chain resilience. As global trade continues to evolve, such initiatives highlight the importance of internationally recognized standards and digital trade integration to support seamless and future-ready logistics networks, reinforcing the UAE's position as a leading global trade and logistics hub.
This certification enables Abu Dhabi Customs to process customs declarations within a single authorized facility, thereby simplifying cargo movement between interconnected logistics centers under the same customs framework without requiring additional customs documentation at various ports in Abu Dhabi. At the same time, it facilitates the smooth flow of goods under customs supervision and supports the issuance of direct bills of lading, allowing the Al Faya Dry Port to serve as the origin for exports and the final destination for imports.
Located between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, the Al Faya Dry Port is digitally connected to Khalifa Port. These facilities offer cargo handling services under the supervision of Abu Dhabi Customs, advanced container handling capabilities, and integrated logistics solutions, designed to support growing cargo volumes and strengthen the UAE's multimodal trade connectivity.
