01 / THE BIG PICTURE
Understand the requirements.
See the opportunity.
Saudi IECEE national recognition connects international electrical safety evidence with Saudi requirements for designated products. SASO describes a national recognition certificate based on IECEE evidence and the applicable national conditions. It is distinct from simply possessing a CB Certificate.
Complise Global supports manufacturers and importers in assembling a consistent application. A useful review matches the product sold in Saudi Arabia to its certificate, complete test report, technical specifications and proposed market documentation.

SASO publishes the categories requiring IECEE national recognition. Examples include mobile phones and accessories, certain computing equipment, lighting and specified appliances. Scope can change, so check the current list against the exact product before placing an order.
- Product name, model and intended use
- Relationship between accessory and main product

The recognition route calls for an IECEE CB Test Certificate and corresponding CB Test Report from the appropriate scheme participants. SASO also identifies national requirements such as plug conformity. A report covering another model is not interchangeable evidence.
CHAPTER 03Applicant and manufacturer recordsClarify which Saudi business will apply and which manufacturer takes responsibility for the product. Prepare the relevant…
Clarify which Saudi business will apply and which manufacturer takes responsibility for the product. Prepare the relevant business records and declarations early. Consistent legal names and model references reduce avoidable clarification rounds.
- Applicant and manufacturer declarations
- Product photographs and label information

SASO identifies Arabic instructions and additional approvals where the product requires them, including energy efficiency or telecommunications evidence. Treat each as a scope decision. One recognition application should not obscure a separate requirement applying to the same device.
CHAPTER 05Review before submissionCreate a document index linking each model to its evidence. Highlight changes in components, standards or construction since…
Create a document index linking each model to its evidence. Highlight changes in components, standards or construction since testing. Ask the reviewing party to resolve acceptance questions before assuming an older report can support a new configuration.
CHAPTER 06Maintain the recognized configurationAfter recognition, keep the Saudi version aligned with the reviewed evidence. Changes to the plug, wireless function, power…
After recognition, keep the Saudi version aligned with the reviewed evidence. Changes to the plug, wireless function, power supply or model family should trigger a compliance review. We help organize those records and coordinate questions with the responsible parties.

05 / A LITTLE MORE CLARITY
Your questions.
Our starting points.
Practical answers to common questions about Saudi IECEE Recognition.
01Is a CB Certificate sufficient by itself?
Not necessarily. Saudi national recognition evaluates the IECEE evidence together with applicable national conditions and supporting records.
02Does every electrical product need this route?
No blanket conclusion is appropriate. The current SASO product list and exact product classification determine applicability.
03Is recognition the same as SABER shipment certification?
No. These are different compliance functions. The overall Saudi plan should identify which recognition, product and shipment requirements apply.
04Can one application cover model variants?
That depends on the evidence and accepted family scope. Document construction differences and confirm coverage before including additional models.
