How to apply for SASO certification and where to do SASO certification?

Information required for applying for SASO certificate:

1, PI (formal bidding)

2. Packing list

3, inspection application form

4. Experimental report

Note: If the issuing agency is ITS, a certificate of origin is also required. (welcome v me)

Shenzhen Li Xun Testing Co., Ltd. (LCS for short) was established in April 2004 and has been successfully listed on the New Third Board (stock name: Li Xun Testing, stock code: 87117). Its headquarters laboratory is located in Baoan District, Shenzhen, and an independent laboratory has been established in Gongming, Shenzhen, including Shenzhen Li Xun Testing Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Branch and Zhongshan Branch. Ningbo distribution laboratory is under construction. Li Xun Testing is the first batch of private third-party testing and certification professional service high-tech enterprises established in China. Since its establishment, through continuous self-improvement and development, we have built electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) laboratories, radio frequency laboratories, product safety laboratories, new energy battery laboratories, energy efficiency performance laboratories, environmental reliability laboratories and chemistry laboratories.

The first step is product testing.

Since 2005, there is no mandatory EMC EMC testing requirement in Saudi Arabia, so when testing live products, you can omit EMC EMC and only test the safety part, that is, the LVD testing part in ce certification (of course, if Saudi guests have this requirement, there is no way but to do it according to their requirements. ) If your product has been certified by other means, such as UL, TUV, GS, etc. As long as the test items can meet the safety requirements of Saudi Arabia and the power frequency is 60HZ, the certified test report is completely acceptable, and there is no need to write a difference report. However, the reporting date cannot exceed 3 years. If the customer's product is CE-certified, the LVD test report of CE-certified depends on the testing organization, because CE certification is relatively poor at present, and not all reports are acceptable. CE certification test report must be issued by an organization with ISO 17025 qualification, and the application must be accompanied by the organization's ISO 17025 qualification certificate. If the customer's products have been certified by CCC, his report is acceptable, but not completely acceptable, because the power frequency in China is 50hz and that in Saudi Arabia is 60HZ, which is unacceptable. It is necessary to make up the power frequency test. After the frequency test, this report is completely acceptable. In addition, if your product is not electrified, such as some simple auto parts, such as daily necessities, such as simple metal shelves (hardware products), then you can consider replacing the third-party inspection report with the factory internal inspection report+factory ISO900 1 certificate or TS 16949 certificate. For auto parts, TS 16949 system certificate+factory internal certificate must be used. Otherwise I can't accept it! With the above test report, you can proceed to the next step:

Step 2: Apply for pre-shipment inspection. (Our SASO certificate can be exempted from inspection)

Applying for pre-shipment inspection is the most critical step in the whole certification process. Many people don't know much about how to apply for inspection before shipment, so I will explain in detail what needs to be prepared before inspection (in fact, there are not many materials to apply for inspection, but the content requirements are strict).

Materials required for applying for pre-shipment inspection: product inspection report (safety part), inspection application form, conformity declaration, product photos, packing box photos, packing list and invoice. This is the necessary information for applying for pre-shipment inspection. One share is not enough. Among these materials, product photos and packaging photos are the most difficult to prepare. Don't think it's as simple as taking a photo. This photo is a must.

You must be able to see the delivery mark in the product photos you take, and this delivery mark is also necessary. The words on the shipping mark must be printed, molded or sprayed, carved or even neat, but no stickers or simple stickers are allowed. If the label is self-adhesive and seems to be printed in batches, it can't be handled casually. That's it. Moreover, information such as product name, model specification, voltage, frequency, made in China, exporter's name or manufacturer's name or importer's name or their trademarks must be on the product logo. If the product is uncharged, marks and numbers must contain the following information: product name, model specification, made in China, name of exporter or manufacturer, name of importer or its trademark. After the above steps, there is basically no problem with the product label.

After processing the product photos, let's talk about the packaging photos. Similarly, there are specific requirements for the photos of the packaging box. Packaging photos should also show marks and numbers, marks and numbers is also necessary. The words on the shipping mark must be printed, molded, sprayed, carved and even written neatly, but no stickers are allowed. They must be printed on the box or sealed. In addition, information such as product name, model specification, voltage, frequency, made in China, exporter's name or manufacturer's name or importer's name or its trademark, net weight, gross weight, handle with care icon or rainproof icon, etc. must be displayed on the packaging mark. If there is no charge for product packaging, marks and numbers must include the following information: product name, model specification, made in China, name of exporter or manufacturer or name of importer or its trademark, net weight, gross weight, handle with care icon or rainproof icon. Because the packaging box is relatively large, it is not difficult to handle, and all problems can be solved by engraving.

After processing the packaging photos and submitting the above information, it can basically pass the data review at one time. After the information is accepted, the license issuing agency will arrange inspection. During inspection, inspectors generally do not inspect the quality of products on the spot. The inspector's job is relatively simple, just checking the appearance, labels and signs of products and packaging, counting the number of products and taking pictures of the inspected goods.

At the inspection site, inspectors usually give the person in charge of the inspection a conclusion, and the person in charge accompanying the inspection must read the inspection conclusion clearly. Generally, there are three situations: satisfaction, reservation and dissatisfaction. If satisfied, it means that the inspection is smooth, satisfactory and passed. If it is a reservation, he will write the reason for the reservation. In this article, we must find out why we write a reservation. If your products and packaging are made according to the above requirements, there is basically no problem. For example, when inspecting electronic products, if there is no Saudi Arabia shipping mark on the products and packaging, you will basically write a reservation. So don't worry about this item, it can generally be ignored. If you have reservations for other reasons, you should ask clearly. If you can rectify, you should rectify on the spot. If it is too late to rectify the site, you can take photos after rectification and hand them over to the accreditation center. If the issuing center accepts it, the certificate can still be issued. If the inspection conclusion is not satisfactory, it means that the inspection is unqualified, and the inspection report is unacceptable, which means that the certificate cannot be issued.

After the above steps, the whole application and inspection are basically completed. At this time, it is waiting for the issuing authority to issue a certificate. After receiving the inspector's inspection report, the issuing center will issue Sasso -COC certificate according to the actual situation. Before issuing the certificate, the issuing center will give you a draft certificate. The exporter will issue the original Sasso -COC certificate after confirmation. If the draft certificate is found to be wrong, it needs to be corrected. And tell me how to modify it, and then the license issuing center will give you the revised draft certificate. After confirmation, the issuing center will issue the original Sasso -COC certificate. After receiving this certificate, the exporter will send this Sasso -COC certificate to the consignee in Saudi Arabia for customs clearance. This is the whole process of Sasso -COC certification. This COC certificate is one-off. You must apply for this COC certificate every time you clear customs.

Answers to frequently asked questions about SASO certification in Saudi Arabia

SASO has no certificate. This statement is wrong. SASO certification has a certificate. After the goods are inspected, the issuing authority will issue a true COC clearance certificate to the exporter, not a report, so don't mislead the guests.

Secondly, some people say that the CO document issued by CCPIT is a one-time SASO certificate, which is also wrong. The certificate of origin issued by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade is only one of the foreign trade documents, not the Sasso -COC certificate, and the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade is not authorized to issue the Sasso -COC certificate. Don't mislead the guests on this matter. Of course, Saudi Arabia and China have good relations. Some products are shipped to Saudi Arabia, and the CO issued by CCPIT can also be cleared after being signed by the embassy. However, there is also a premise here, because the CCPIT does not verify the quality of products, it should be said that there are often many inferior products in it, so Saudi Customs still pays more attention to the customs clearance certificate, that is to say, Saudi Customs exports products with the CO certificate issued by the CCPIT. So the risk is much higher. I want to remind you of this. At present, the port with less strict customs clearance card is Jeddah port, while Riyadh and Dammam are very strict. Please be careful not to be fooled.

In addition, some guests often say that they need to make a long-term SASO certificate, saying that they are afraid of trouble. In fact, the guest doesn't know that no matter which mode he applies for, the final customs clearance is a one-time COC certificate. Why, let me explain in detail below:

For example: apply the registration mode. When customers apply for this mode, they should first submit the samples to the testing organization for testing, and then take the test report for filing and registration. Finally, the issuing authority will issue a registration certificate to the applicant, but the certificate cannot be directly used for customs clearance. At the time of shipment, they need to submit the box invoice and registration certificate to the license issuing agency, and then the license issuing agency will arrange inspection before shipment. After passing the inspection, the license issuing agency will issue a one-time COC certificate to the exporter.

For example, in the formal recognition mode, after the customer has done product testing and factory audit, the issuing agency issues a formal recognition certificate to the applicant, which cannot be directly used for customs clearance. Every time the applicant wants to deliver the goods, he needs to send the packing list and the formal approval certificate to the license issuing agency, which will decide whether to inspect the goods according to the actual situation. If inspection is not required, the license issuing agency will issue COC directly to the exporter for customs clearance. Then at this time, only the certificate fee is charged, and no inspection fee is charged.

In view of the above model, in fact, all final customs clearance certificates are one-time COC certificates.

There are also some products that are a little special for SASO, and it is not entirely acceptable to provide test reports for inspection. Samples should be taken for testing during inspection, and the certificate can only be issued after it is qualified. Therefore, to handle such products, you must not deliver them first, and you must get a certificate before you can sail.
