Respected / Merchants of food
Asharqia Chamber presents its best greetings to you and would like to inform you of the letter from the Council of Saudi Chambers (L / 1431) dated 13/6/1440, which is referring to the letter of the Saudi Food and Drug Authority No. (31242 / p) dated (20/4/1440) that is indicating that the list of accredited laboratories has been updated to issue residual analysis certificates for agricultural crop products.
It includes processed and frozen vegetables and fruits from the Republic of India.
No consignment is allowed unless the pesticide residue analysis certificates are attached to the list of laboratories published on the Authority's website: www.sfda.gov.sa
The Authority also recalls the signing of the "Certificate of Conformity Certificate Program" that is optional with both (Intertech International Riyadh, and Saudi Industrial Testing Services Company), which allows importers to take advantage of taking the fast track to finalize the procedures of the Authority by permission to open directly and remove them from the customs areas on the same day.
