SABER Certificate for Aluminium Profiles
Aluminium profiles need a SABER Product Certificate, and every shipment needs a SABER Shipment Certificate.
Overview
This page covers extruded bars, rods and profiles of aluminium alloy, solid or hollow.
Aluminium profiles fall under the Technical Regulation for Building Materials, Part 1: Metals and their Alloys. Before the first shipment, an approved certification body reviews your test reports and issues a SABER Product Certificate. Each shipment then needs its own SABER Shipment Certificate before it can clear Saudi customs.
Documents required
SABER certificate type: Type 3 (type approval plus production assurance). After type approval, your factory needs a certified product safety management system. The certification body visits the factory before approval, which lasts three years, and then carries out periodic and unannounced audits.
- Test reports for your aluminium profiles

This is our default preparation list. Actual requirements depend on the product, HS Code, applicable regulation, certification route and shipment details. We verify the list for your product before proceeding.

Frequently asked questions
Do all codes in this group follow the same route?
No. Some hollow profiles, such as 7604.21.00.0001, need a supplier declaration instead of a product certificate. Check your exact code in our HS code checker or send us your product.
Do window frames use the same codes?
No. Finished doors, windows and frames fall under heading 7610 and a different regulation.
Is the product certificate the same as the shipment certificate?
No. The product certificate covers your aluminium profiles. The shipment certificate covers one shipment, so you need a new one each time you ship.
Do you provide the certificate?
Yes*. We help you get the certificates your product needs, from preparing the documents to the final approval.
