Office Movers in
International City
Moving an office in International City means confirming the cluster, building code, permit route and approved unloading point before packing.
International City moves planned by cluster and unit.
International City combines ten country-themed clusters around the Central Business District, with ground-floor shops, offices, trading businesses and Dragon Mart. Our office movers in International City Dubai confirm the cluster, building code, permit, vehicle point and office-versus-stock scope before dispatch.

The exact cluster, code and property contact confirmed
A cluster name alone is not enough because similar low-rise blocks repeat across International City. We record the full building code, unit, floor and security or property contact at both addresses.
Permit and mover-pass timing checked before booking
Where Nakheel’s move-in or move-out service applies, the occupier confirms the permit first and the moving company submits its own daily-pass request. We schedule only after the required approvals are clear.
Office assets separated from retail or warehouse stock
Desks, files and IT are listed separately from shop stock, shelving, display items, cartons or warehouse goods. Each group is packed and unloaded in the order needed for reopening.
Permit, street access and stock—checked together.
For Nakheel-managed premises where the service applies, the occupier submits the permit three to four working days ahead; the mover daily pass is requested one to two working days ahead. Security may require the physical permit and stamped crew ID copies.
Before the Crew Arrives
- Share both cluster names, building codes, units, floors and property contacts
- Confirm the permit, mover pass, legal vehicle point, lift or stair route
- Separate office furniture and IT from shop stock, shelving, displays and warehouse goods
Permit & Property Approval
Confirm whether the Nakheel move permit applies and obtain the property or security team’s date, vehicle point and access instructions.
Crew & Contractor
The moving company may need a daily pass plus stamped crew ID copies. Keep the physical approval available for the security point.
Approved Move Window
Nakheel currently publishes 9am–5pm Monday to Saturday and 10am–1pm Sunday for move-in and move-out permits, subject to the approved request.
Street, Lift & Stairs
Confirm the legal street position, nearest suitable entrance, lift or stair carry and route protection before unloading.
Office & Stock Split
Label desks, records and IT separately from retail stock, shelving, display goods, cartons and warehouse inventory.
Business Continuity
Sequence reception, sales, administration and priority systems so the customer-facing operation can reopen first.
International City Offices: What to Expect
| Office Building / Business Centre | Office Profile | Loading & Service Access | Approval / Move Window | Key Move Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Country-Cluster Shops & Offices | Ground-floor commercial units below low-rise residential blocks | Street frontage, open parking and shared lifts or stairs | Property or security approval with the exact building code | Keep the shopfront and residential entrance clear. Confirm whether office furniture uses the public lift, another entrance or stairs. |
| Central Business District Offices | Mid-rise mixed-use buildings at the centre of the cluster layout | Building-controlled parking, entry and lift arrangements | Management confirmation plus permit checks where applicable | Use the CBD building code and unit rather than International City alone. Confirm parking clearance, security and the assigned lift. |
| Dragon Mart 1 Trading Units | Wholesale and retail businesses with offices, displays and stock | Mall-controlled delivery areas, zones and public trading routes | Mall or unit-management approval for the crew, inventory and time | Separate office furniture from merchandise, display fixtures and warehouse cartons. Avoid customer and trading hours where possible. |
| Dragon Mart 2 Back-Office Units | Retail, trading and service businesses inside a busy mall complex | Operator-controlled service routes and multi-storey parking | Mall approval and a confirmed delivery or service entrance | Public parking does not approve unloading. Confirm the correct mall zone, service route, lift and ownership of fitted counters or displays. |
| Small Business Centres | Furnished private offices with shared reception and meeting rooms | Operator-controlled bulky deliveries through shared corridors | Business-centre approval for the inventory, crew and move time | Separate tenant-owned desks, IT and files from operator chairs, printers, lockers and meeting-room furniture. |
| Warsan Warehouse-Office Units | Administrative offices connected to storage and trading operations | Warehouse gate, yard, shutter and separate office route | Landlord approval plus an inventory and operations plan | Move office assets separately from stock and racking. Keep dispatch lanes, shutters, forklifts and fire routes clear. |

What to know before booking an International City move.
Does an International City office move need a permit?
For Nakheel-managed premises where the move-in or move-out service applies, the occupier obtains the permit and the moving company submits its own daily-pass request. Other premises follow their property or mall instructions.
How early should the permit and mover pass be requested?
Nakheel recommends the occupier request three to four working days ahead, with approvals generally taking one to two days. The mover daily pass is requested one to two working days ahead and normally takes one day.
Why are the cluster and building code essential?
The ten themed clusters contain many similar blocks. The full code identifies the correct road, entrance, security point, lift or stairs and avoids sending the truck to another building in the same cluster.
Can the truck use open parking or the shopfront?
Only when the property or mall team approves it. Resident parking, roadside spaces or a retail frontage may obstruct traffic, customers or entrances and should not be assumed to be a loading bay.
What must the moving crew show at security?
Nakheel’s current FAQ says security may require the physical permit letter and Emirates ID copies carrying the Nakheel security stamp for every moving company employee entering the community.
How are Dragon Mart trading offices moved?
We confirm the mall zone, service or delivery entrance, lift, trading hours and inventory. Office furniture is separated from merchandise, shelving, displays, fitted counters and cartons.
How are warehouse-office moves kept separate?
Desks, files and IT are inventoried separately from warehouse stock, racking and operational equipment. Dispatch lanes, shutters, forklifts and fire routes remain clear during handling.
How is the move cost and schedule calculated?
The quote depends on both units, cluster codes, floors, office furniture, files, IT, stock or displays, packing, permits, vehicle access, lift or stair carries, distance and the crew and trucks required.

We Handle the Rest.
WhatsApp both clusters, building codes, units, floors, workstation count, move date and any shop or warehouse stock. We confirm the permit, vehicle point, lift or stairs and reopening order before preparing a clear quote.
