Many companies who export to Saudi Arabia may be aware of an email being circulated by “Exportal” (a company based in Saudi Arabia) informing exporters of the new Import procedures and asking them to register for the service.
Following investigations by the Arab British Chamber of Commerce and the British Chamber of Commerce we can categorically say that this system is not applicable here in the UK and will not be for the foreseeable future.
The ABCC’s current advice and that of the BCC is “DO NOT REGISTER” or sign up to this system as it does not apply to the UK.
