Different countries, different requirements. But as varied as the requirements are – your partner for international lighter approvals always stays the same. Use our one-stop service and the vast know-how of our experts to open up new markets – for example in Saudi Arabia. Products exported to Saudi Arabia have to fulfil specific national requirements. And as proof of this, the "Certificate of Conformity“ (CoC) must be presented to the customs authorities when the goods enter the country.

TÜV Rheinland has been licensed by the "Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO)" for many years as a notified body entitled to issue Certificates of Conformity. Our local presence in Saudi Arabia means we can inform you of new developments as they happen.
