Documentation
ready for the Gulf

The GCC is a demanding market: SFDA registration in Saudi Arabia, GSO 1943 and GSO 2055 compliance, Arabic labelling, full traceability. From the Montauroux workshop, we prepare the technical file for each product and the documentation for each shipment, so that your goods reach your importer fully compliant.

i.

Regulatory documentation

Technical file for SFDA registration and GSO compliance: INCI list, allergens, IFRA certificate, GMP statement, SDS and Arabic labelling elements. Registration is filed by your importer or authorised representative.

ii.

UN 1266 transport

Alcohol-based perfumes are dangerous goods (UN 1266, class 3). We ship in limited quantities wherever possible, with the IMDG declaration for sea freight and IATA documentation for air freight.

iii.

Controlled lead times

4 to 6 weeks of filling and packing if the fragrance and components are chosen, 12 to 16 weeks from signature to finished product for a turn-key project, then transit to the destination port or airport.
