Aramex Shipping for Magento 2 (Middle East & GCC)

Key Features

Live Aramex Rate Calculator API rates for GCC domestic and international destinations, shown natively in Magento checkout, cart estimator, and multi-shipping

Weight and dimension (volumetric) based rate calculation with configurable handling fees, markups, and free-shipping thresholds

Aramex AWB label generation as printable PDF, triggered from the admin shipment screen and via an observer on sales_order_shipment_save_after

Aramex Cash-On-Delivery (COD) enable/disable toggle with configurable COD amount passed through on the air waybill for clean reconciliation

UAE and Saudi Arabia origin support with account country code, origin city, and bilingual (EN/AR) sender address handling

Implemented as a real Magento\Shipping\Model\Carrier carrier (AbstractCarrier + CarrierInterface) so Aramex behaves like any core online carrier

Encrypted storage of Aramex credentials (account number, PIN, entity, username/password) via Magento config encryption and obscured admin fields

Admin configuration under Stores → Configuration → Sales → Shipping Methods → Aramex, driven by system.xml/config.xml with per-store-view scope

Granular admin ACL resource so you control which roles can view or edit Aramex settings and trigger label generation

Tracking number write-back to the Magento order with the Aramex tracking URL surfaced in the customer account and shipment emails

Sandbox/test vs production endpoint switch for safe staging validation before going live

Configurable allowed-destination countries, method title, and error/fallback behaviour when the Aramex API is unreachable

Clean install/upgrade via setup patches and di.xml — no core file edits, survives Magento and Adobe Commerce minor upgrades

Optional REST/GraphQL exposure of Aramex rates for headless (PWA Studio / Hyvä) storefronts on request

About this Product

Aramex Shipping for Magento 2 is a build-to-order carrier integration for merchants across the GCC and wider Middle East who fulfil through Aramex. It is not an instant Adobe Commerce Marketplace download — ECOSIRE builds the module to fit your store, installs it on your Magento Open Source or Adobe Commerce instance, and supports it after go-live.

The extension ships as a proper Magento 2 module under app/code/Ecosire/AramexShipping, registered through registration.php and module.xml. It implements Magento\Shipping\Model\Carrier\AbstractCarrier and CarrierInterface, so Aramex appears as a native online carrier in checkout, multi-shipping, and the admin order create screen. Live rates are fetched from the Aramex Rate Calculator API, weight- and dimension-aware, with results cached to keep checkout fast.

On order placement an observer on sales_order_shipment_save_after (and an admin shipment action) calls the Aramex Shipping API to create the AWB and pull back the PDF label for printing — no manual portal entry. Aramex Cash-On-Delivery is wired as a toggle with a configurable COD amount, surfaced as a payment/shipping option and passed through on the AWB so reconciliation matches.

Configuration lives in Stores → Configuration → Sales → Shipping Methods → Aramex, backed by system.xml and config.xml, with credentials (account number, PIN, entity, account country code) stored encrypted. UAE and Saudi Arabia origin are first-class, with origin city/country and bilingual address handling.

Everything is delivered with admin ACL, dependency injection via di.xml, and clean upgrade paths through setup/patch scripts. You get the source, an install on your environment, and a real human to call when Aramex changes an endpoint.

What you get

Custom-built Magento 2 module (Ecosire/AramexShipping) delivered as source under app/code, with registration.php, module.xml, di.xml, system.xml and config.xml

Installation and configuration on your Magento Open Source or Adobe Commerce environment (staging first, then production) by an ECOSIRE engineer

Connection of your live Aramex account credentials (account number, PIN, entity, account country code) with encrypted storage

Configured live rates, AWB label generation, and Aramex COD validated against real test orders in your checkout

Admin ACL setup plus a short walkthrough of the Aramex settings and the shipment label workflow

Setup/upgrade patch scripts and a deployment note covering setup:upgrade, di:compile, and static-content:deploy

Short admin guide (PDF) covering configuration fields, COD usage, and troubleshooting the Aramex API

Post-delivery support window and source ownership so your team or ours can extend it later

Who this is for

GCC eCommerce / Operations Manager

Runs a UAE- or Saudi-based Magento store fulfilling via Aramex and wants accurate live rates at checkout plus one-click AWB labels instead of re-keying every order into the Aramex portal.

Magento Store Owner shipping COD-heavy orders

Sells across the GCC where Cash-On-Delivery is the dominant payment method and needs the COD amount captured on the Aramex air waybill so courier reconciliation and remittance line up automatically.

Magento Solution Architect / Lead Developer

Wants a clean carrier built on AbstractCarrier with di.xml, ACL, encrypted config and setup patches — no core hacks — so it survives Adobe Commerce upgrades and their team can maintain or extend the source.

Frequently Asked Questions about Aramex Shipping for Magento 2 (Middle East & GCC)

Is this an instant download from the Adobe Commerce Marketplace?

No. This is a build-to-order extension. ECOSIRE builds the module to fit your store, then installs and configures it on your own Magento Open Source or Adobe Commerce instance. You receive the full source code under app/code, but it is not a self-serve Marketplace download — a real engineer sets it up and validates it against test orders in your checkout.

How long does delivery take after I order?

Typical delivery is about 1 to 2 weeks from the point we have access to your environment and your live Aramex credentials. A standard build (live rates, label generation, COD, UAE/KSA origin) lands at the shorter end; custom requirements — headless GraphQL exposure, bespoke COD reconciliation, multi-origin warehouses — extend the timeline. We confirm a firm date with you before starting and install on staging first.

What ongoing support and updates do I get?

Every build includes a post-delivery support window for bug fixes and configuration help. Because Aramex occasionally changes its API endpoints or auth, and because Magento/Adobe Commerce ship regular releases, we offer ongoing maintenance to keep the integration working through those changes. You own the source, so your own developers can also maintain or extend it; we are available when you'd rather we handle it.

Will it work with my Magento or Adobe Commerce version, and with Hyvä or a headless storefront?

Yes. It is built as a standard Magento 2 carrier (AbstractCarrier / CarrierInterface) with no core edits, so it works on current Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce versions and with Luma or Hyvä themes. For PWA Studio or other headless storefronts we can optionally expose Aramex rates over REST or GraphQL — tell us your stack and we'll scope it before build.

Can it handle UAE and Saudi Arabia origins and Cash-On-Delivery the way Aramex expects?

Yes. Origin country, city and account country code are configurable, with UAE and Saudi Arabia supported as first-class origins including bilingual (EN/AR) sender address handling. Aramex COD is a toggle with a configurable COD amount that is passed through on the air waybill, so the value the courier collects matches your order and reconciliation stays clean.
