The Saudi Standards, Metrology, and Quality Organization oversees the Saudi Arabian Product Safety Program, known as “SALEEM” (SASO). The SALEEM Saudi Arabia program, as its name suggests, is dedicated to ensuring the quality of goods marketed in Saudi Arabia. “SALEEM” means “without risk or harm to the user, the community, or the environment.” SALEEM uses the online SABER Certificate Saudi Arabia system to make sure that all shipments and products meet the requirements of the program.
Through its platform, SABER, also known as Saber Certification Saudi Arabia, enables the electronic acquisition of the Certificate of Conformity and Certificate of Shipment Conformity required for the admission of domestically and internationally produced consumer goods into the Saudi market. The hub’s goals are to protect businesses from fraud and make sure that customers may buy products without being concerned about their safety. Prior to bringing goods into the country after January 1, 2019, importers must register the regulated commodities in SABER, choose one of the certifying organisations permitted by SASO SABER Certificate, and enter SABER. SABER thus provides two unique certificates to certify goods and transportation.
