Exporting & Importing to Saudi Arabia - Change in the regulatory status of some KSA Customs Tariff Codes
Manufacturers and exporters shipping products to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) are advised of SASO’s notification dated 1 February 2026, which updates the regulatory status of certain KSA Customs Tariff Codes from non-regulated products to regulated products under the following SASO Technical Regulations:
- SASO Technical Regulation for Building Materials - Part 1: Metals and their Alloys for Buildings and Construction
- SASO Technical Regulation for Building Materials - Part 2: Insulation and Cladding Materials
This change will become effective in SABER within 30 days from the date of SASO’s notification.

If your product is covered by the affected KSA Customs Tariff Code, then the product must be registered in SABER and its conformity to applicable SASO Technical Regulation must be verified by a SASO-approved Conformity Assessment Body (CAB) such as Intertek to issue the Product Certificate of Conformity (P-CoC) and Shipment Certificate of Conformity (S-CoC) required for KSA Customs clearance.
