Common Questions About Product Registration
Quick answers on UAE and GCC pathways, timelines and documents.
Which UAE authority registers my product?
It depends on the product. Food products and most consumer goods are registered through Dubai Municipality (Montaji and food product registration). Controlled and regulated products fall under MOIAT via ECAS or the Emirates Quality Mark. Health products, supplements and cosmetics sold in Saudi Arabia require SFDA. We assess your product and route it through the correct authority.
What is the difference between MOIAT ECAS and the Emirates Quality Mark?
ECAS is the Emirates Conformity Assessment Scheme, the mandatory registration controlled products need before entering the UAE market. The Emirates Quality Mark is a higher, voluntary mark that requires factory assessment and ongoing surveillance. Many manufacturers start with ECAS and later upgrade to EQM for a competitive edge.
Do I need a separate registration for each GCC country?
Often, yes. The UAE (MOIAT and Dubai Municipality), Saudi Arabia (SFDA) and other GCC states run separate portals and requirements. We coordinate UAE and KSA submissions together so your product reaches both markets without duplicated effort.
How long does product registration take?
Timelines vary by pathway and depend on documentation being complete. Dubai Municipality food registration (FIRS) is typically approved within 5 working days, while DM Montaji registration for cosmetics, supplements and detergents takes a minimum of 21 days. MOIAT ECAS takes around 4 weeks once all documents are ready, and EQM runs 3 to 6 months. SFDA GHAD food and cosmetic registrations are notification-based and typically issue within 2 working days of a complete dossier; supplements take 30-60 days. Clean, complete dossiers move fastest, which is why we run a pre-submission review.
What documents do I need to register a product?
Common requirements include a valid trade licence, product specifications, ingredient or material composition, lab test reports or certificates of analysis, artwork and labels in Arabic and English, and for some pathways ISO or GMP certificates. We provide a tailored checklist after the scope assessment.
Can you fix labels that do not meet UAE requirements?
Yes. Label non-compliance is one of the most common rejection reasons. We review your artwork against UAE and GCC labelling rules, including Arabic translation, mandatory declarations, claims and shelf-life formatting, and provide corrections before submission.
