Regulations & requirements

What to know when exporting to the Gulf.

GSO standards apply across the Gulf Cooperation Council; labels must include Arabic and clearly state production and expiry dates. A halal certificate is essential for most buyers — Goldland Food holds TSE Halal certification.

Saudi Arabia’s SFDA and the competent food authorities in the UAE have product and importer registration requirements. We recommend planning Ramadan orders at least 2–3 months in advance.

This information is a general guide; we confirm current regulations with you before each order.
