Importing in Saudi Arabia serves the goals of the Kingdom's Vision 2030 in the following:

Diversifying sources of income

The import-export sector is a key driver for diversifying the Saudi economy by increasing non-oil exports and broadening the revenue base.

A global footprint for Saudi companies

Saudi local companies can compete regionally and globally through exports, which drives them to improve the quality of products and meet the needs of different markets, and this contributes to raising the level of innovation and development.

The Rise of Non-Oil Sectors

Both imports and exports contribute to the growth of non-oil sectors such as petrochemicals, agriculture, and industry.

Providing for the local market

Importing provides products and services that are not produced domestically or are insufficient to meet local demand.

Opening New Global Horizons

Any import and export company in Saudi Arabia contributes to opening new markets in other markets, increasing the customer base and enhancing the ability to grow and expand, opening up new horizons for SMEs and strengthening Saudi Arabia's position in international trade.

Increasing employment opportunities

This sector provides employment opportunities in import and export companies in Saudi Arabia itself in both operations and management, with various job opportunities in areas such as transportation, logistics, warehousing, and manufacturing, reducing unemployment rates and boosting the economy.
