Saudi Arabia market context

Complete official list index

Coverage version: SFDA live prohibited/restricted lists, snapshot 30 August 2026

Every page and entry in the public SFDA prohibited and restricted ingredient indexes; restricted detail pages remain the source for conditions.

Verification checklist

  1. Search names and CAS across both SFDA lists.
  2. Open the cited restricted-entry detail and apply every condition.
  3. Check current SFDA/GSO technical regulations and updates.
  4. Complete eCosma notification, label and responsible-party requirements.

Verification workflow and record completeness

Before using this result in a compliance decision

  1. Confirm that “Solvent Red 1 (CI 12150), when used as a substance in hair dye products” and every CAS/EC identifier refer to the material in your supplier specification.
  2. Search names and CAS across both SFDA lists.
  3. Open the cited restricted-entry detail and apply every condition.
  4. Check current SFDA/GSO technical regulations and updates.
  5. Complete eCosma notification, label and responsible-party requirements.
  6. Document the source version and recheck the regulator before manufacture, notification or market placement.

Questions this page answers

This official record identifies the substance as prohibited for cosmetic use in the stated market scope. Do not rely on a formulation containing this identity until the cited source, effective date and exact substance match have been verified.

A prohibition entry may contain no separate condition text because the regulatory outcome is the prohibition itself. No list match is not permission; Gulf/SFDA product, claim, notification and technical requirements still apply.

The record cites SFDA prohibited list, page 123, row 7, source version live-snapshot-2026-08-30. Open the official source.

No. CAS helps resolve identity, but jurisdictions can classify the same substance differently and can apply different product scopes, limits, warnings and transition dates.
