SASO Conformity Assessment Program (SALEEM)

The SASO Conformity Assessment Program is the new Saudi Market Access Program that is set to replace the SASO CoC Program. This new program is also called SALEEM.

SASO has created Technical Regulations and has approved Certification Bodies to conduct based on its ISO/IEC 17065 accreditation, and its geographical location. SASO grouped the shipment origin into 5 regions; Europe, Asia and Australia, Africa, and Middle East. Three UL legal entities (UL LLC, UL International Demko A/S, and UL-CCIC Company Limited) have been granted Conformity Assessment Body Status by SASO.

UL-CCIC Company Limited scope as SASO Notified Body:

  • Technical Regulation for Low Voltage Appliances and Equipment
  • Technical Regulation for Machinery used in the Food Industry
  • Technical Regulation for Portable Machinery and Equipment
  • Technical Regulation for Textile
  • Technical Regulation for Batteries
  • Technical Regulation for Radio and Telecommunication Terminal Equipment
  • Technical Regulation for Toys

Products that are tested and proven to conform with the Saudi Technical Regulation are registered in SASO’s online System called Saber, and are issued a Type Approval Certificate, valid for 3 years, by the Conformity Assessment Body. Other Saudi recognized programs such as GSO (G-Mark), SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate (), and SASO Quality Mark (SQM) are pre-requisites, if applicable, to the Type Approval Certificate.

SASO introduced the three product Risk Levels: High, Medium, and Free Trade. High Risk products must have the SASO Quality Mark (SQM). Medium Risk products are covered in the Technical Regulations and must be tested as per SASO approved standard referenced in the Technical Regulations. Free Trade products only require Self-Declaration of Conformity from the manufacturers and Saber registrations are handled directly by SASO.

At the time of shipment, the exporters need to acquire the second Certificate in this program, the Shipment CoC, from the Conformity Assessment Body for Saudi Customs clearance. In addition to the Type Approval certificate of the products in the shipment, the exporter needs to submit the shipping and commercial documents to get the Shipment that is valid for that shipment only.

CB Scheme

The CB Scheme is a vast international arrangement established Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for mutual acceptance of test reports among participating certification organizations in the field of electrical and electronic equipment.

The CB Scheme benefits product manufacturers and distributors engaged in international trade by providing:

  • A single point of product testing for efficient global market access
  • Global acceptance of test reports leading to national certification in CB Scheme member countries
  • Unilateral acceptance of test reports in many developing countries that are not yet participating in the CB Scheme

The CB Scheme is an international network of product certification organizations in more than 50 countries around the world. The IECEE website at http://www.iecee.org/ contains comprehensive information about the CB Scheme.

Each participating country has one or more organizations accepted by the IECEE as National Certification Bodies (NCBs). UL is one of the largest and most active CB Scheme members, and we operate four NCBs in different countries and over 50 CB Testing Laboratories (CBTLs) to provide local service with global coverage for our Customers.

UL NCBs in Denmark, USA, Japan and Canada, with CBTLs in all major regions, can assess your products to a broad range of IEC standards, with any relevant National or Group Differences. The product categories and standards covered by UL in the CB Scheme are listed on the IECEE Website via the following links: UL (Demko), UL (US), UL (JP) and UL (CA).

CB Scheme Process
  • UL will test your product to all harmonized standards and to any National Differences required for the countries in which you want to market your product.
  • UL will then issue a CB Test Certificate and a CB Test Report that you can use to obtain national certifications in participating countries.

AECO Scheme

Ce plan est également appelé, dans certains textes plus anciens, le programme AECO. Les certifications délivrées dans le cadre de ce plan sont basées sur les exigences définies dans les codes des ascenseurs des États-Unis et du Canada. Les exigences du plan sont décrites dans la norme ASME A17.7.1/CSA B44.7.1 – General Requirements for Accredited Elevator/Escalator Certification Organizations (exigences générales pour les organismes de certification des ascenseurs, monte-charges et escaliers mécaniques approuvés).

Des échantillons sont mis à l’essai, inspectés, examinés et évalués d’autres façons pour recueillir des renseignements qui démontrent que le produit répond aux exigences applicables. Pour les produits destinés à être utilisés sur le marché canadien, l’évaluation comprend l’évaluation de l’étiquetage de sécurité bilingue. En plus de l’apposition de la marque sur le produit, un certificat de conformité est délivré dans le cadre de ce plan. Le certificat (et le document complémentaire, le cas échéant) a pour but de fournir aux autorités compétentes des renseignements de base sur les exigences d’installation et d’entretien d’un système, d’un sous-système ou d’un composant d’ascenseur, de monte-charge ou d’escalier mécanique, ainsi que sur les fonctions associées aux fins de conformité à ces exigences.

Le respect de toutes les exigences applicables doit être démontré avant qu’un certificat de conformité ne soit délivré, et que l’autorisation d’apposer une marque de certification utilisée dans ce plan ne soit accordée. Les visites des usines qui apposent des marques sur des produits certifiés dans ce plan ont lieu régulièrement dans le but de vérifier les caractéristiques des produits et de la production, afin de s’assurer que la démonstration de satisfaction aux exigences est encore valide. Pour certains produits, des échantillons de l’usine sont sélectionnés pour un nouvel essai.

Les changements apportés aux produits certifiés sont pris en considération et, au besoin, des essais, des inspections ou d’autres évaluations supplémentaires sont menés dans le but de démontrer qu’un produit continue de satisfaire aux exigences et que l’autorisation d’apposer une marque peut rester en vigueur. Les défauts de conformité aux exigences qui ne sont pas résolus mettent fin à l’autorisation d’apposer la marque. Il est également possible de mettre fin volontairement à l’utilisation de la marque. L’utilisation des marques indiquées et expliquées ci-dessous est autorisée et contrôlée par UL LLC pour indiquer qu’un produit a été certifié selon l’AECO Scheme.

Un répertoire des produits certifiés est accessible en ligne dans le Product iQ database. Seuls les produits portant la marque sont certifiés.

Les marques autorisées sont indiquées ci-dessous.

CB Scheme

The CB Scheme is a vast international arrangement established Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for mutual acceptance of test reports among participating certification organizations in the field of electrical and electronic equipment.

The CB Scheme benefits product manufacturers and distributors engaged in international trade by providing:

  • A single point of product testing for efficient global market access
  • Global acceptance of test reports leading to national certification in CB Scheme member countries
  • Unilateral acceptance of test reports in many developing countries that are not yet participating in the CB Scheme

The CB Scheme is an international network of product certification organizations in more than 50 countries around the world. The IECEE website at http://www.iecee.org/ contains comprehensive information about the CB Scheme.

Each participating country has one or more organizations accepted by the IECEE as National Certification Bodies (NCBs). UL is one of the largest and most active CB Scheme members, and we operate four NCBs in different countries and over 50 CB Testing Laboratories (CBTLs) to provide local service with global coverage for our Customers.

UL NCBs in Denmark, USA, Japan and Canada, with CBTLs in all major regions, can assess your products to a broad range of IEC standards, with any relevant National or Group Differences. The product categories and standards covered by UL in the CB Scheme are listed on the IECEE Website via the following links: UL (Demko), UL (US), UL (JP) and UL (CA).

CB Scheme Process
  • UL will test your product to all harmonized standards and to any National Differences required for the countries in which you want to market your product.
  • UL will then issue a CB Test Certificate and a CB Test Report that you can use to obtain national certifications in participating countries.
  • You must still apply to the NCBs in your target countries for national certifications, or UL can do it for you. Please note that NCBs have the right to request product samples or ask manufacturers to develop additional data. The CB Test Certificate and associated CB Test Report you receive from UL will minimize the need for additional testing.
  • National Differences are special requirements that the IECEE CB Scheme permits each country to adopt in order to address local safety concerns. UL keeps up to date with the National Differences of CB Scheme member countries, so your products are evaluated to the most current requirements of the countries you target.
  • Additional information can be found on the CB Scheme Web site at http://www.iecee.org/
Applying to UL for CB Scheme Certificate
  • Simply contact UL Customer Service via the UL.com website to initiate the process. You’ll be asked to provide UL with:
    • A description of your product, including illustrations, schematics, wiring diagrams, component information, a copy of the marking plate, and any appropriate product details
    • The name and address of the company responsible for the product, as well as the list of manufacturing locations.
  • Tell us also about the countries where you intend to sell your products and UL’s Global Market Access experts can make it easy for you to gain the relevant national certifications for your target markets. Contact gma@ul.com for additional information.
  • After successful evaluation of the product according to the applicable IEC standard(s) and the National/Group Differences of the countries you choose, a CB Test Certificate and CB Test Report will be issued.

Note that additional information may be requested as part of the application process, e.g. registration.

SASO Conformity Assessment Program (SALEEM)

The SASO Conformity Assessment Program is the new Saudi Market Access Program that is set to replace the SASO CoC Program. This new program is also called SALEEM.

SASO has created Technical Regulations and has approved Certification Bodies to conduct based on its ISO/IEC 17065 accreditation, and its geographical location. SASO grouped the shipment origin into 5 regions; Europe, Asia and Australia, Africa, and Middle East. Three UL legal entities (UL LLC, UL International Demko A/S, and UL-CCIC Company Limited) have been granted Conformity Assessment Body Status by SASO.

UL LLC scope as SASO Notified Body:

  • Technical Regulation for Low Voltage Appliances and Equipment
  • Technical Regulation for Machinery used in the Food Industry
  • Technical Regulation for Portable Machinery and Equipment
  • Technical Regulation for Gas Appliances and their Accessories

Products that are tested and proven to conform with the Saudi Technical Regulation are registered in SASO’s online System called Saber, and are issued a Type Approval Certificate, valid for 3 years, by the Conformity Assessment Body. Other Saudi recognized programs such as GSO (G-Mark), SASO IECEE Recognition Certificate (), and SASO Quality Mark (SQM) are pre-requisites, if applicable, to the Type Approval Certificate.

SASO introduced the three product Risk Levels: High, Medium, and Free Trade. High Risk products must have the SASO Quality Mark (SQM). Medium Risk products are covered in the Technical Regulations and must be tested as per SASO approved standard referenced in the Technical Regulations. Free Trade products only require Self-Declaration of Conformity from the manufacturers and Saber registrations are handled directly by SASO.

At the time of shipment, the exporters need to acquire the second Certificate in this program, the Shipment CoC, from the Conformity Assessment Body for Saudi Customs clearance. In addition to the Type Approval certificate of the products in the shipment, the exporter needs to submit the shipping and commercial documents to get the Shipment that is valid for that shipment only.

U.S. Safety Scheme

This scheme may also be referred to in some historical texts as the UL Listing, Classification and Recognition Program. In this scheme, tangible products are certified to requirements for safety that are associated with fire, shock and casualty hazards.

Samples of products are tested, inspected, examined and otherwise evaluated to gather information that demonstrates the product fulfills applicable requirements. Fulfillment of all applicable requirements must be demonstrated before authorization is granted to apply a certification mark used in this scheme.

Visits to factories that apply marks to products certified in this scheme are completed periodically to verify product and production characteristics as an assurance the original demonstration of fulfillment of requirements continues to be valid. For some products, factory samples are selected for retesting.

Changes to certified products are considered and, if needed, additional tests, inspections, examinations or other evaluations are completed to demonstrate a product continues to fulfill requirements and authorization to apply a mark can continue. Unresolved noncompliances with requirements result in termination of authorization to apply the mark.

Use of the mark can also be terminated voluntarily. The use of the markings shown and explained below is authorized and controlled by UL LLC to indicate a product has been certified using the U.S. Safety Scheme. A directory of certified products is available online via the Product iQ database. Only products bearing the mark are certified.

The authorized Marks are shown below.

It is a unique graphic identification of an organization with Notified Body (NB) number. In the context of product certification, it is a product certification mark given to product/s which complies with an approved standard.

The ECAS Mark currently only applies to Low Voltage Equipment (LVE) products approved under ESMA.

Products that have been tested and found to comply with the requirements of the ECAS will be issued a Certificate of Conformity (CoC). The ECAS is to be used by suppliers in UAE for clearing products from the Ports and Customs Authority, and in trading products as a proof that the product has been approved by the Federal Government through ESMA.

The ECAS CoC is valid for one (1) year and must be renewed annually to continue selling in the UAE market.

A valid IECEE CB Test Report and Certificate that no more than three (3) years old may be submitted as the basis for an ECAS CoC without the need for re-testing.

UL-ME scope as Notified Body for ECAS includes the following:

  • Low Voltage Equipment (LVE)
  • Energy Efficiency Standardization and Labelling (EESL) Program
  • Telecommunication Cables
  • Hover boards / Electric Scooters
  • Electrical Appliances Intended for Use in Explosive Areas (ECASEx)
  • Hazardous Materials in Electrical and Electronic devices (RoHS)

Customers who would like to apply for an ECAS should have a representative office, agent, or distributor the ESMA website.

In principle, the EQM Mark is a voluntary scheme. However, in some as water bottle, government authorities may require it as mandatory certification.

Compliant products are granted an EQM Certificate of Conformity (CoC) and License that is valid for three (3) years and authorizes use of the EQM Mark. The EQM CoC and License supersede an ECAS with respect to compliance to ESMA regulated products.

A valid IECEE CB Test Report and Certificate that no more than three (3) years old may be submitted as the basis for an EQM Mark without the need for re-testing.

Annual Factory Audits are required for EQM Mark certification.

UL-ME scope as Notified Body for EQM includes the following:

  • Low Voltage Equipment (LVE)
  • Energy Efficiency Standardization and Labelling (EESL) Program
  • Telecommunication Cables
  • Hover boards /
  • Electrical Appliances Intended for Use in Explosive Areas (ECASEx)
  • Hazardous Materials in Electrical and Electronic devices (RoHS)

Customers who would like to apply for the EQM Mark should have a representative office, agent, or distributor the ESMA website.

UL Verification Services Inc. – efficacité énergétique

Adresse: 333 Pfingsten Road, Northbrook, IL, 60062, USA

UL Verification Services Inc. exploite le schéma de certification de produit suivant.

Plan de certification de l’efficacité énergétique / ENERGY STAR

Ce plan est également appelé, dans certains textes plus anciens, le programme de certification de l’efficacité énergétique. Dans ce plan, les produits tangibles sont certifiés conformément aux exigences relatives à l’efficacité énergétique et qui sont cohérentes avec les exigences techniques et juridiques des marchés états-unien et canadien.

Des échantillons sont mis à l’essai, inspectés, examinés et évalués d’autres façons pour recueillir des renseignements qui démontrent que le produit répond aux exigences applicables. Le respect de toutes les exigences applicables doit être démontré avant que l’autorisation d’apposer une marque de certification utilisée dans ce plan ne soit accordée.

Un pourcentage de produits certifiés dans ce plan est sélectionné et mis à l’essai annuellement, afin de vérifier que la démonstration initiale de satisfaction aux exigences en encore valide. Les échantillons peuvent être obtenus directement en magasin, dans un entrepôt, ou à leur sortie de l’usine, selon la catégorie de produit et le programme.

Les changements apportés aux produits certifiés sont pris en considération et, au besoin, des essais, des inspections ou d’autres évaluations supplémentaires sont menés dans le but de démontrer qu’un produit continue de satisfaire aux exigences et que l’autorisation d’apposer une marque peut rester en vigueur. Les défauts de conformité aux exigences qui ne sont pas résolus mettent fin à l’autorisation d’apposer la marque.

Il est également possible de mettre fin volontairement à l’utilisation de la marque. L’utilisation des marques indiquées et expliquées ci-dessous est autorisée et contrôlée par le service de verification UL Inc. pour indiquer qu’un produit a été certifié en vertu du plan de certification de l’efficacité énergétique.  Un répertoire des produits certifiés est accessible en ligne dans la base de données des produits écoénergétiques en ligne.

CB Scheme

The CB Scheme is a vast international arrangement established Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for mutual acceptance of test reports among participating certification organizations in the field of electrical and electronic equipment.

The CB Scheme benefits product manufacturers and distributors engaged in international trade by providing:

  • A single point of product testing for efficient global market access
  • Global acceptance of test reports leading to national certification in CB Scheme member countries
  • Unilateral acceptance of test reports in many developing countries that are not yet participating in the CB Scheme

The CB Scheme is an international network of product certification organizations in more than 50 countries around the world. The IECEE website at http://www.iecee.org/ contains comprehensive information about the CB Scheme.

Each participating country has one or more organizations accepted by the IECEE as National Certification Bodies (NCBs). UL is one of the largest and most active CB Scheme members, and we operate four NCBs in different countries and over 50 CB Testing Laboratories (CBTLs) to provide local service with global coverage for our Customers.

UL NCBs in Denmark, USA, Japan and Canada, with CBTLs in all major regions, can assess your products to a broad range of IEC standards, with any relevant National or Group Differences. The product categories and standards covered by UL in the CB Scheme are listed on the IECEE Website via the following links: UL (Demko), UL (US), UL (JP) and UL (CA).

CB Scheme Process
  • UL will test your product to all harmonized standards and to any National Differences required for the countries in which you want to market your product.
  • UL will then issue a CB Test Certificate and a CB Test Report that you can use to obtain national certifications in participating countries.
  • You must still apply to the NCBs in your target countries for national certifications, or UL can do it for you. Please note that NCBs have the right to request product samples or ask manufacturers to develop additional data. The CB Test Certificate and associated CB Test Report you receive from UL will minimize the need for additional testing.
  • National Differences are special requirements that the IECEE CB Scheme permits each country to adopt in order to address local safety concerns. UL keeps up to date with the National Differences of CB Scheme member countries, so your products are evaluated to the most current requirements of the countries you target.
  • Additional information can be found on the CB Scheme Web site at http://www.iecee.org/
Applying to UL for CB Scheme Certificate
  • Simply contact UL Customer Service via the UL.com website to initiate the process. You’ll be asked to provide UL with:
    • A description of your product, including illustrations, schematics, wiring diagrams, component information, a copy of the marking plate, and any appropriate product details
    • The name and address of the company responsible for the product, as well as the list of manufacturing locations.
  • Tell us also about the countries where you intend to sell your products and UL’s Global Market Access experts can make it easy for you to gain the relevant national certifications for your target markets. Contact gma@ul.com for additional information.
  • After successful evaluation of the product according to the applicable IEC standard(s) and the National/Group Differences of the countries you choose, a CB Test Certificate and CB Test Report will be issued.

Note that additional information may be requested as part of the application process, e.g. registration.
