From April 1, the above products can only be shipped by applying for SC through SABER, otherwise they will not be able to clear customs and must hold SABER Only the certificate of conformity issued by the platform can be cleared at Saudi customs

What is SABER, where are the changes in SABER, what is the SABER process and what information is needed?

1. What is SABER certification?

1. SABER certification refers to the conformity certification assessment plan for non-Saudi local enterprises (that is, companies exporting to Saudi Arabia). Therefore, for Chinese exporting companies, the SABER certification plan must be paid attention to.

2, SABER is a newly launched upgraded version based on the original SASO certification, and it is also a new certification and accreditation plan that will replace the SASO certification.

SABER system

The SABER platform allows investors and local manufacturers to obtain required electronic certificates of conformity and batches of conformity certificates for consumer goods entering the Saudi market, whether imported or locally manufactured. The platform is designed to protect businesses, avoid fraud, and ensure products are free of defects that could affect consumers' health and safety.

Through the SABER system, importers and local manufacturers can easily apply for a certificate of conformity for products and a certificate of conformity for batches.

The SABER system mechanism is divided into the following three steps.

*Risk level of the product

The system assigns a product's risk level based on the provided HS code and product category. Products not regulated by Saudi Arabia's technical regulations are classified as low-risk products.

2. Major changes to the SABERA certificate

1, SABER is a new assessment project on the conformity certification of products and batches of goods purchased in Saudi Arabia. The importance of the Saberi book is to confirm whether the products meet the standards and specifications of Saudi Arabia, and any high-risk or moderate import It protects investors from fraud when it comes to risky products, and prevents false investment and substandard products when it comes to risky products, ensuring that products will not affect consumers' health and safety.

2, SABER certification is a new online application system launched by SASO, SABER is a network tool for product registration, issuance and obtaining compliance CoC certificates

3. SABER certification process

Stage 1: PC Certificate (Product Conformity Certificate)

1. Importers register SABER platform system account

SABER URL: httpa: //saber.sa,

2. The importer enters the application information to the SABER department

SABER importers register to obtain SABER account and password

The information to be entered includes:

a. Importer's company name and address

b. Importer's Commercial Registration Number CR Number

c. Contact name, position, electronic signature

d. The name of the person in charge and the position of the person in charge, electronic signature

e. Personal ID number

3. The importer selects a conformity assessment and certification agency in the SABER platform system

4. Pay for the PCoC certificate

5. The issuing agency receives the application and contacts the manufacturer/exporter to provide certification documents

Certification documents (GCC certificates provide GCC certificates, lamps provide CB EER IECEE registration documents, CB products provide CB and IECEE registration documents, and other types provide IEC reports)

6. Evaluate the certification documents and submit the approved documents to the SABER platform;

7. The SABER platform issues the PCoC certificate online, and the certificate is valid for 1 year

Stage 2: SCOC Certificate (Shipment Certificate of Conformity)

* For products not regulated by Saudi Arabia's technical regulations, you only need to submit a self-declaration through the SABER-approved form, and no product compliance certificate is required. These unregulated products can directly apply for a shipment compliance certificate mode for shipment.

1. The importer submits the SCoC application to the SABER department:

2. Verify regulated products and submit compliance documents;

Compliance Documents: Product's Certificate of Conformity or Self-Declaration, Packing List, Invoice, Bill of Lading, etc.

3. Pay SCoc fees;

4. The SABER platform issues the SCoC certificate online, and the certificate is only valid for this batch of imported goods.

The SABER system grid product certification application is divided into three steps:

1. Product Listing application for product registration;

. Product Certification Apply for product certificate;

3. Shipment Certification applies for batch cargo certificate.

Among them, product listing is a voluntary application. Product Certification (referred to as PC) and Shipment Certification (referred to as SC) are mandatory applications.

The product must first apply for the PC certificate, and then apply for the SC certificate for each batch of goods when shipping. These two certificates are the necessary customs clearance documents for the goods to enter Saudi Arabia.

The certificate fee is charged online by SASO through the SABER system, and the SC certificate for each comparison will also be a fixed fee, instead of charging based on the value of the goods as in the past COC.

About the SABER Conformity Certification Program:

SABER is a comprehensive system of setting laws, technical requirements and control measures, and its goal is to ensure the safety of domestic and imported products.

At the same time, it is also to ensure that the legislative and administrative departments can provide effective services, which can be used to ensure that products comply with technical regulations, especially basic technical regulations related to health, safety, environment and swimming protection to ensure their safety. .

3. Shipment Certification申请批次货物证书.

其中product listing属于自愿性申请. Product Certification (简称PC)和 Shipment Certification (简称SC)属于强制性申请.

产品首先要先申请PC证书,然后出货时针对每-批货申请SC证书,这两张证书是货物进入沙特必备的清关文件.

证书收费由SASO通过SABER系统在线收取,针对每比货的SC证书也将是固定收费,不再做过去COC那样根据货物的价值收费。

关于SABER符合性认证计划:

SABER是集设定法、技术要求和控制措施为一体的综合体系,其目标在于确保本土产品与进口产品的安全.

同时也是为了确保立法和管理部门能提供有效的服务,即可通过这项措来确保产品符合技术法规,特别是涉及到健康,安全、环境和能游保护相关的基本技术法规来保证其安全性.
