How do I take out a full container from APMT Bahrain?
After your Bayan (CDF) is paid, check the container status. If it is 'scan', you can book a date and time directly at APMT. Approved Bahrain port transporters can then enter the truck and collect the container with documents. If it is 'search', we can still help you take it out.

APMT search container booking refers to scheduling a date and time to take out a container from APMT Bahrain that has been flagged for a customs or security search. Even if your container is marked for search, you still need to arrange transportation to take it out. We help you book the APMT appointment and coordinate approved transporters.
What is APMT search container transportation?
