Saudi SASO
SASO certification background:
According to Cabinet Decree Ns.213, the original SASO ICCP was terminated on 30 September 2003. According to Cabinet Decree Ns 6386, a new product evaluation scheme for export to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has been approved and replaced the original SASO ICCP scheme. The new assessment scheme, which was authorized by the Ministry of Commerce and Trade of Saudi Arabia (MoCI) since September 2005, aims to ensure that products exported to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia meet the relevant Kingdom of Saudi Arabia standards and international standards.
SASO is the abbreviation of Saudi Arabian Standards Organization in English, namely Saudi Arabian Standards Organization. According to the regulations of SASO and MoCI, PCP (Product Conformity Program) is implemented for the vast majority of consumer goods imported into Saudi Arabia. The products must be certified to meet the requirements of Saudi national standards and corresponding international standards, and a certificate of conformity is obtained before customs clearance can be smoothly completed.
At present, there are two feasible ways to obtain the certificate of conformity in our company:
1. Product inspection + inspection, obtain customs clearance certificate;
