Saber Platform
(importers)Registering a Product Conformity Certificate
The Product Conformity Certificate Registration (Importers) service, offered through the Saber Platform by the Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO), enables importers to electronically register conformity certificates issued by accredited conformity assessment bodies.
This process ensures that imported products comply with Saudi technical regulations and standards prior to being allowed entry into the Kingdom’s markets.
The service is a key step in maintaining product safety and quality, as it prevents non-compliant or unsafe goods from entering Saudi Arabia.
Through the Saber Platform, importers can upload the issued conformity certificate and link it to their registered product for verification. Required information includes the certificate number, issuance date, country of origin, and issuing conformity body, along with supporting documentation. Once the data is verified and approved, the certificate is validated within the system and automatically linked to customs clearance, streamlining import procedures and reducing delays.
This fully digital process simplifies the conformity verification journey, enhances traceability, and integrates communication between SASO, customs authorities, and the private sector to promote transparency and accuracy in trade compliance.
