Fulfilling the responsibilities of a SASO-recognized certification body, including issuing product certificates and managing shipment certificates for any item globally that falls under a technical regulation.
If the items being shipped are subject to a technical regulation from the Saudi Standards, Metrology, and Quality Organization (SASO), both a shipment certificate and a product certificate must accompany each shipment destined for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Saudi Arabian Standardization Organization (SASO) has introduced SABER, an electronic platform for conformity assessment, along with the launch of the Saudi Product Safety Program (SALEEM).
The IECEE CB Scheme is a global system managed by the International Electrotechnical Commission for Electrical Equipment (IECEE) that facilitates the mutual recognition of test reports and certifications for electrical and electronic devices. This scheme simplifies the process for businesses to obtain product certification across international borders.
These certificates confirm that products meet the required standards and technical specifications. SASO strongly advises businesses to use this portal to request and obtain both a product certificate and a shipment certificate for goods subject to SASO technical regulations. For products not covered by SASO technical regulations, it is also recommended to obtain a self-declaration and a shipment certificate. Additionally, Markek provides IECEE Certificates and other services to assist companies in meeting the standards outlined in Saudi Technical Regulations and Saudi Standards.
Depending on the kind of product you have, Markek might be able to help you in the following ways:
Fulfilling the responsibilities of a SASO-recognized certification body, including issuing product certificates and managing shipment certificates for any item globally that falls under a technical regulation.
Providing technical assessment reports for goods not subject to technical regulations to support claims that they comply with applicable Saudi standards.
The Saudi Product Safety Program, or SALEEM, was established by SASO as part of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's national reform initiatives for the years 2020 and 2030.
Launched in January 2019, the SABER Platform supports the Saudi Product Safety Program for SASO Technical Regulations. The certification process for the Saudi Product Safety Program consists of two stages:
Product Certification
Certification of Shipments for Regulated Products Exported to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
On March 10, 2021, the Saudi Organization for Standardization, Metrology, and Quality (SASO) announced that starting July 1, 2021
The IECEE national recognition certificate would be required for a specific list of products. However, according to the latest update from SASO's official website, this deadline has been extended to November 1, 2021. This marks the second postponement of the implementation date; the original deadline was September 1, 2021.
Here is a list of products that require the SASO IECEE certificate in Saudi Arabia:
Water boilers and kettles (SASO-IEC-60335-2-150)
Electric pumps with a horsepower rating of 5 or less (IEC 60335-2-41)
Electric fryers for the home (SASO-IEC 60335-2-13)
Espresso and coffee machines of every type (SASO-IEC-60335-2-15 and SASO-IEC-60335-2-14)
Consoles and controllers for video games (SASO-IEC-62368-1)
Power cables (IEC-60227-(1-7), (IEC-60245-(1-8), (IEC-60502-(1-2), (IEC-60702-1), and (IEC-62821-(1-3))
Chargers and various additional accessories
Wireless headphones
Exporters are advised that the list of products requiring the SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate has been updated. This update modifies our earlier communication regarding the Saudi Product Safety Program. Below is the latest information on the SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate (SIRC). Notably, solar photovoltaic systems have been added to this list and will require a SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate starting September 28, 2020.
Mobile phones and their accessories, including wired and wireless chargers, car chargers, and wireless speakers for cell phones.
Portable batteries and mobile phone batteries.
Laptops, tablets, and their accessories, including laptop chargers and tablet chargers.
Smart watches
Dishwasher
Electric pumps (with capacity of 5 horses or less).
Dishwasher
Televisions and screens.
Light and its accessories.
Technical regulation for electric devices which used in electronic smoking systems.
Technical regulation of small photovoltaic solar systems.
Home electric oil fryers.
Video games devices and their accessories (control devices, wireless speakers, chargers, and their accessories).
Electric water kettles.
Electric cable.
Multiple model numbers can be certified under a single SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate, provided that all items are listed on the same IECEE CB Test Report and IECEE CB Certificate.
When a SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate is issued, it is registered and linked to a specific importer’s Commercial Registration (CR) number, meaning only that importer can use it. If you have three different importers for the same product, each importer will need their own SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate, necessitating the application for three separate certificates.
