Product and Factory Registration
The Importance of SFDA Product Registration in Saudi Arabia
The SFDA is the government body concerned with the safety of products traded in the Saudi market, especially with regard to food, medicines, cosmetics, medical devices, and supplies.
The Authority applies strict regulations to these products, to ensure compliance with standard specifications in the Kingdom, but in order for products to be registered with the SFDA, they must comply with regulations and standard specifications before they reach the consumer.
Products and Factories We Register
At ICC we register products and factories related to the following industries:
- Food.
- Cosmetics.
- Medical devices and supplies.
We fully represent factories within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and are responsible for opening accounts and obtaining all licenses for food, cosmetics, and medical supplies activities.
Product Classification Comes First
Classifying a product as a food product, medical device, or cosmetic product is the first step in determining the required documents.
For example, the cosmetics registration SFDA process follows the “notification procedure,” which means that the Authority will not necessarily review the data provided, and its system will include the product in its database even if it does not meet the cosmetic standards at the time of registration.
While food product registration in Saudi Arabia requires that labels, ingredients, manufacturers, and sources of raw materials meet all relevant regulations, product classification is the first step before registration.
