Key considerations include proper classification under HS 0404, accurate valuation, and meeting any product-specific standards or certifications required by Saudi Arabia. Payment terms commonly used include Letter of Credit (L/C), Documents against Payment (D/P), and advance payment.

Shipping from India to Saudi Arabia typically takes 5–15 days by sea, depending on the port of origin and destination. Major Indian ports serving this route include JNPT (Mumbai), Mundra, and Chennai.
