SABER Certificate for Handbags
Handbags need a SABER Product Certificate, and every shipment needs a SABER Shipment Certificate.

Overview
This page covers handbags with an outer surface of plastic sheeting or textile.
Handbags fall under the Technical Regulation for Packaging. 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
- Test reports for your handbags
- Declaration of conformity
- Product details
- Photos of the product and labels
- Commercial invoice
- Packing list
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
Can I use the Quality Mark instead of a SABER product certificate?
Yes. SABER accepts either a SABER product certificate or the Saudi Quality Mark for handbags. We help you choose.
Do leather handbags use these codes?
No. Leather handbags have their own code. See our leather goods page.
Is the product certificate the same as the shipment certificate?
No. The product certificate covers your handbags. 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.
