The Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources processed 771 chemical clearance requests in July 2026 to support industrial investment.
In July 2026, Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources processed 771 requests for chemical clearance to bolster the nation's industrial sector. As part of ongoing initiatives to encourage industrial investment and foster manufacturing growth, the ministry handled a diverse array of applications. Of the 771 requests, 722 were for non-restricted chemical imports, while the remaining 49 pertained to permits for restricted chemicals.
Collectively, these requests encompassed 2,260 distinct items. The ministry explained that the chemical clearance service allows industrial investors to submit applications for clearance permits or import and export authorizations for chemicals through the Sanaei digital platform. This streamlined process aims to expedite the granting of chemical clearances for industrial facilities, ensuring timely access to necessary chemicals from various ports.
By automating procedures and presenting them via digital services for the industrial sector, the initiative seeks to simplify permit acquisition for chemicals used in production. This move is intended to bolster investors and enhance Saudi Arabia's investment climate.
