SABER Certificate for Refrigeration Compressors
Refrigeration compressors need a SABER Product Certificate, and every shipment needs a SABER Shipment Certificate.

Overview
This page covers compressors used in refrigerating and air-conditioning equipment.
Refrigeration compressors fall under the Technical Regulation for Pressure Equipment. Before the first shipment, an approved certification body reviews your test reports and issues a SABER Product Certificate. Each shipment then needs its own SABER Shipment Certificate before it can clear Saudi customs.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use the Quality Mark instead of a SABER product certificate?
Yes. SABER accepts either a SABER product certificate or the Saudi Quality Mark for refrigeration compressors. We help you choose.
Do air compressors use this code?
No. Air compressors have their own codes. See our air compressors page.
Is the product certificate the same as the shipment certificate?
No. The product certificate covers your refrigeration compressors. 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.
