About This Seaport
Twenty-one berths, a container yard rated at roughly 690,000 TEU and a channel depth near 12.5 metres define Ash Shariqah, the Sharjah port also known as Mina Khalid or Port Khalid. Alongside containers it handles general cargo, reefer boxes, roll-on/roll-off traffic and dry and liquid bulk, making it a versatile multi-purpose facility on the Persian Gulf. Container operations have run under Gulftainer since 1976, with the concession extended to 2058. Feeder services link Sharjah to the region's main transhipment hubs, while road links and a dedicated inland container depot connect the quays to Dubai and the northern Emirates. Customs and free-zone clearance go through the Sharjah Ports Authority and adjoining free zones. Shippers needing deep-sea calls or very high volumes typically route via Jebel Ali in Dubai or Gulftainer's east-coast terminal at Khorfakkan.
