Introduction of Saudi Arabia COC certification
The COC certificate is a requirement of many countries. For the export of goods from Saudi Arabia, Iran and other Middle East regions, the customs of the importing country needs the importer to provide a certificate of conformity (COC, certificate of conformance) issued by the recognized international certification company. (Arab Standards Organization) stipulates that imported goods must have a COC clearance certificate. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia implements product conformity certification for domestic imports. All products are required to carry a certificate of compliance, also known as a Saudi CoC certificate, so that products can complete import clearance at Saudi customs.
