IECEE Certificate for LED Lights
LED lights need IECEE recognition from SASO, and every shipment needs a SABER Shipment Certificate.
Overview
This page covers LED light fittings, such as panels, downlights, battens and outdoor lights.
LED lights fall under the GCC Technical Regulation for Low Voltage Electrical Equipment and Appliances. SASO recognises a valid IECEE CB test certificate, so your CB report is the basis of the approval. Each shipment then needs its own SABER Shipment Certificate before it can clear Saudi customs. SABER also lists an energy efficiency label for these codes.
Documents required
- IECEE CB test certificate and test report
- Product details and technical data sheet
- Photos of the product, packaging and markings
- Declaration of conformity
- Commercial invoice
- Packing list
This is our default preparation list. Actual requirements depend on the product, HS Code, applicable regulation, certification route and shipment details. We verify the list for your product before proceeding.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use the Quality Mark instead of IECEE recognition?
Yes. SABER accepts either IECEE recognition or the Saudi Quality Mark for these codes. The energy efficiency label is needed either way.
Do LED bulbs use these codes?
No. LED bulbs and tubes fall under heading 8539.
Is IECEE recognition the same as the shipment certificate?
No. IECEE recognition covers your LED lights. The shipment certificate covers one shipment, so you need a new one each time you ship.
Do you provide the certificate?
Yes*. We help you get the certificates your product needs, from preparing the documents to the final approval.
