Halal certificates: what Saudi Arabia accepts
A Malaysian halal certificate is a strong starting point, but Saudi Arabia applies its own rules on which halal bodies it recognises for which products. For meat, poultry and many processed foods, the certificate must come from a body accepted by the Saudi authorities. We check your certificate and your supplier chain before you register. See halal certification for Saudi Arabia.
Food and cosmetics registration
Food products follow SFDA food rules, including Arabic labelling. Cosmetics must be listed with the SFDA for each product before import: see SFDA cosmetics registration. Getting the label right before printing saves money and time.
Finding a Saudi distributor
Most Malaysian brands start through a distributor. A good partner holds the right registrations, reaches your channel and shares your plan. We shortlist and introduce suitable distributors. See distributor and partner search.
Setting up your own company
When volumes grow, many companies set up in the Kingdom with a MISA registration and a commercial registration. See investing in Saudi Arabia.
