How It Works
How customs clearance works with us
Five clear steps from data intake to your shipment's delivery.

Shipment data intake
We receive the commercial invoice, bill of lading, and certificate of origin, and review them at least 48 hours before the shipment arrives.
- 2
Customs declaration filing
We classify each item under the correct HS code and file the declaration through the Fasah platform, linked to ZATCA.

Duty & VAT assessment
Customs duty is assessed on the CIF value, and 15% VAT is added on top of that total.

Inspection & release
We track the inspection lane if flagged (red/yellow) and complete any additional documents required by Saber or technical authorities.

Final delivery
Once the release order is issued, we coordinate onward transport to the final destination anywhere in the Kingdom.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Quick answers to what importers and exporters ask us most.
With complete documentation and a correctly filed declaration on the Fasah platform, release typically takes one to three business days depending on the inspection lane (green/yellow/red) and the port. Shipments requiring Saber certification or additional technical approvals can take longer while conformity is completed.
At minimum: the commercial invoice, bill of lading or airway bill, and certificate of origin. Depending on the product, you may also need a Saber shipment conformity certificate, a health or food certificate from the Saudi Food and Drug Authority, or an approval from the Communications, Space & Technology Commission for electronic devices.
Customs duty is charged as a percentage of the CIF value (goods + freight + insurance), typically ranging from 0% to 20% depending on the product's classification, with a 100% excise rate on tobacco. VAT of 15% is then applied to the total of value plus duty. Try our customs duty calculator to estimate the cost before you ship.
A Shipment Certificate of Conformity (SCoC) through the Saber platform is required for any product covered by Saudi technical regulations — electrical appliances, toys, building materials, and cosmetics among them. The certificate links automatically to the customs declaration in Fasah, and clearance is held without it.
