The Gulf is India’s largest export region, and it is also one of the strictest on product conformity. Saudi Arabia checks every regulated import through the SABER platform. The UAE requires MoIAT ECAS/EQM certificates. Low-voltage electrical products and toys across the GCC need the G-Mark. Global Approbation helps Indian exporters get certified once and sell across the Gulf.
For Saudi Arabia, regulated products need a SABER Product Certificate (PCoC) and Shipment Certificate (SCoC). For the UAE, regulated products need a MoIAT ECAS certificate or the EQM mark. For low-voltage electricals and toys sold in GCC states, the G-Mark with its QR tracking symbol is also required.
