SABER Certificate for Steel Doors
Steel doors need a SABER Product Certificate, and every shipment needs a SABER Shipment Certificate.
Overview
This page covers steel and iron doors, door frames and thresholds that are not fire-rated.
Steel doors fall under the Technical Regulation for Doors, Windows, and Accessories. 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. Since 18 June 2026, your Saudi importer also needs an approved MIM Product Declaration for these codes before the shipment certificate can be issued.
Documents required
SABER certificate type: Type 1a (type approval). A SASO-accepted certification body reviews your technical file and tests a representative sample. There is no factory audit. Fire-resistant doors and windows need Type 3.

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 steel doors. We help you choose.
Is the product certificate the same as the shipment certificate?
No. The product certificate covers your steel doors. 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.
