G-Mark Certificate for Refrigerators
Refrigerators need a G-Mark, and every shipment needs a SABER Shipment Certificate.
Overview
This page covers household refrigerators and fridge-freezers.
Refrigerators fall under the GCC Technical Regulation for Low Voltage Electrical Equipment and Appliances, and SABER accepts the G-Mark for these codes. The G-Mark is the Gulf conformity mark, issued by a notified body after testing. Each shipment then needs its own SABER Shipment Certificate before it can clear Saudi customs. Since 18 June 2026, your Saudi importer also needs an approved MIM Product Declaration for these codes before the shipment certificate can be issued. SABER also lists an energy efficiency label for these codes.
Documents required
- Test reports for your refrigerators
- Product details and technical data sheet
- Photos of the product, packaging and markings
- Declaration of conformity
- MIM Product Declaration form
- 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 the G-Mark?
Yes. SABER accepts either the G-Mark or the Saudi Quality Mark for refrigerators. We help you choose.
Do commercial fridges use these codes?
No. Display fridges, chest freezers and cold rooms have their own codes and routes.
Is the G-Mark the same as the shipment certificate?
No. The G-Mark covers your refrigerators. 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.
