Get Product Registration Help in Saudi Arabia & MENAT

How to Get Product Registration Consultation in Saudi Arabia (2025)

If you're trying to register a food, supplement, or cosmetic product in Saudi Arabia, the process can be overwhelming.

The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) enforces detailed requirements — and a single misstep can delay approval or trigger rejection.

That’s why getting consultation from experienced regulatory professionals can make the difference between a successful launch and a costly mistake.

In this guide, we explain how product registration consultation works in KSA, what services you can expect, and how to choose the right partner in 2025.

What Is Product Registration Consultation?

Consultation refers to professional regulatory guidance during the SFDA product registration process. It’s designed to:

• Identify your product’s correct SFDA classification

• Clarify required documents, testing, and labeling standards

• Prevent avoidable delays or rejection

• Guide you through dossier preparation and submission

Why Consultation Matters for SFDA Approval

Saudi regulations change often. What worked last year may no longer apply — especially with updates in shelf life, labeling, or Halal requirements. Many businesses struggle with:

• Misclassified products (e.g., supplement vs. food)

• Incomplete or incorrect document sets

• Wrong labeling format (Arabic issues, barcode placement, etc.)

• Misunderstanding testing or safety data requirements

A regulatory expert helps you navigate these with clarity.

What Does a Typical Consultation Include?

• Initial product review: Is your product eligible for SFDA registration? Which category?

• Document checklist & validation: Ensuring your files are complete, correct, and up-to-date

• Label & translation review: Arabic compliance, claims, layout

• Halal & certification guidance: GSO 2055-1, GMP, ISO, or SASO as required

• Dossier and portal submission tips: Especially for GHAD or SADAD systems

Many consultants also offer post-submission support and crisis handling if you’ve already been rejected.

How to Choose the Right Regulatory Partner

Look for a consultation provider that:

• Specializes in SFDA registration (not just generic ISO or pharma consultants)

• Understands your product category and format

• Can support both local and international manufacturers

• Offers insight into MENAT regulations if you plan to expand beyond KSA

Avoid firms that:

• Can’t explain the SFDA process clearly

• Promise shortcuts or undocumented approvals

• Don’t offer real examples of past success
