SFDA Services and Licensed Warehouses
Product registration, licensing and storage in an approved medical warehouse
We help companies and importers complete SFDA product registration, obtain SFDA licenses and clear their products on arrival, then store them in SFDA-licensed warehouses in Saudi Arabia — from the registration file to the shelf that holds your product.

What Are SFDA Services?
The Saudi Food and Drug Authority is the government body responsible for regulating and monitoring food, drugs, medical devices, cosmetics, pesticides and animal feed, and for setting their mandatory standards. Any product in these categories needs approved registration before it can enter the Saudi market, and a storage environment that meets SFDA requirements once it has been cleared.
That is where we come in. We handle the regulatory and the operational side together: we prepare your registration file and follow it through to licensing, then receive your shipment in an approved medical warehouse with storage for medical supplies, medical devices, cosmetics and food, cold storage sections for anything that needs a controlled temperature, and complete stock-movement records ready to show SFDA inspectors.
Product Registration with the Saudi Food and Drug Authority
SFDA product registration is mandatory for any company that wants to import or sell food products, pharmaceuticals, medical devices or cosmetics in the Kingdom, and the license is what later allows those products to be released from customs. We handle all five steps on your behalf and review your documents before submission to reduce the chance of rejection or a request for more information.

02
Open the establishment account and verify its details.
03

Tasks of the Saudi Food and Drug Authority
Knowing what the authority does explains why registration and storage requirements are so strict, and what actually gets inspected when it visits a warehouse:
Regulating food, drugs, and medical and diagnostic devices, and supervising their facilities and warehouses.
Running the rapid food alert system to recall non-compliant products.
Setting regulations and standards for food products and food storage conditions.
Monitoring and laboratory testing in SFDA laboratories or accredited laboratories.
Handling reports and complaints about unsafe products.
