SABER Certificate for Water Filters
Water filters need a SABER Product Certificate, and every shipment needs a SABER Shipment Certificate.

Overview
This page covers water filters and purifiers for homes and businesses.
Water filters fall under the GCC Technical Regulation for Low Voltage Electrical Equipment and Appliances. 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
Do replacement cartridges use these codes?
No. Filter cartridges and parts fall under 8421.99.
Do I need a certificate for each model?
Usually one certificate can cover a range of models from the same factory. We help you group them.
Is the product certificate the same as the shipment certificate?
No. The product certificate covers your water filters. 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.
