SFDA Certificate for Cream Biscuits
Cream biscuits have to meet SFDA food rules, and every shipment needs the SFDA CoC.
Overview
This page covers cream-filled sweet biscuits.
Food in Saudi Arabia is overseen by the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), not SASO, so cream biscuits do not go through SABER. Your Saudi importer clears each shipment with SFDA, using the SFDA CoC and the other documents you send.
Documents required
- Commercial invoice
- Certificate of origin
- Test report
- Physical inspection and photos
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.
