What are the import duties and taxes on shoes in Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia applies a customs duty of 5% on most footwear, but some protective or specialized shoes may be higher. VAT is 15% on the total (CIF + duty). You must also factor in SASO certification costs and possible testing fees.
To reduce landed cost, many buyers use sea freight for bulk orders. Our MOQs are low: 10 pairs per color for in-stock, 200 pairs/style for OEM, 500 pairs/style for ODM. Samples cost a small fee, refundable with bulk order.
For accurate duty classification, check HS codes with your broker. Our factories in Wenzhou and Guangzhou can handle dress and fashion shoes. See our factory audit guide or leather shoes.
