Terms & Conditions

By using Parcel Link UAE services — including our website (parcellinkuae.com), customer dashboard, or by contacting us via WhatsApp — you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use our services.

Parcel Link UAE offers four primary delivery services tailored to different needs:

• Individual: Same-day delivery for personal needs (gifts, documents, items between friends).
• Business: Same-day delivery designed for online stores and SMEs with bulk pickups, COD collection, and account management.
• Next-Day Express: Flat-rate next-business-day delivery for predictable shipments up to 20 kg.
• Fulfillment: Economy 2-3 day delivery option for non-urgent items up to 10 kg per piece.

All services include real-time tracking, WhatsApp notifications, and bilingual customer support.

Our pricing follows a transparent distance-based model. The total cost is calculated using the following formula:

The base price and per-km / per-kg rates differ by service:

Parcel Link UAE reserves the right to modify pricing with prior notice posted on the website. Existing bookings will not be affected by mid-shipment price changes.

For large but lightweight packages, we calculate volumetric (dimensional) weight and charge based on whichever is greater — the actual weight or the volumetric weight.

Volumetric weight is calculated only when any single dimension exceeds 50 cm. For smaller packages, only actual weight applies.

All prices quoted on our website, calculator, and in the customer dashboard are subject to a 5% VAT as mandated by UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA).

• VAT is automatically calculated and shown separately in every quote and invoice.
• Business clients with a TRN can request VAT-compliant invoices for tax recovery.
• VAT applies to all services including base fares, distance fees, and weight surcharges.

A shipment is considered confirmed only after the customer receives a unique tracking number (e.g. PL-26-05-23-0001) from our system. We reserve the right to refuse any shipment that:
