What is the Product Categorization ?

Product categorization is a step to register products on Saber electronic platform, and issue the Product Certificate of Conformity (PCoC) for each category based on the same trademark, country of origin, HS code, and same family.

All the imported and locally manufactured consumer products approved by the Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO) that are placed and sold in the Saudi Market, are required to be registered on Saber.

The transition to electronically registering products and issuing conformity certificates on Saber platform came as a significant step in implementing SALEEM program.

The main purpose of SALEEM is to ensure the safety and quality of products sold in the Saudi markets. This is achieved by controlling, and limiting importing or the manufacturing of non conforming products to the Saudi quality and safety standards dedicated by the relevant technical regulation.
