The Saudi Arabian Standards, Metrology, and Quality Organization (SASO) notified about changes in SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate (SIRC) program with regard to the list of products that require SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate to get access to the KSA market. The SIRC shows that the product meets safety requirements based on international standards including the national differences. To receive the SIRC, the following documents are required:
- Full IECEE CB Test Report and CB certificate dated within 3 years
- Manufacturer and Importer Declarations of Conformity
- Full Product Image and photo of the marking label
- User Manual in Arabic
- Copies of Importer Commercial Registration Certificate and Manufacturer Commercial Registration Certificate.

After November 1, 2021, the SIRC will also be necessary for:

Please, note that some of these products also require CITC certificates (e.g. mobile phones or devices that have sim-card slots) or the SASO Energy Efficiency certificate (e.g. Lighting Products). If the product isn’t produced in the KSA, it is necessary to apply for SIRC through the online platform to receive the SASO IECEE number that is used in the SABER platform for getting product conformity and product shipment certificates.
