Substance Regulations

Saudi Arabia RoHS Compliance

Assess every part on your BOM against the six substances Saudi Arabia restricts in electronics, and hold the evidence before goods ship rather than after someone asks.

What Compliance Manager gives you for Saudi RoHS

Saudi Arabia restricts six substances and expects the documentation to exist before goods ship. Compliance Manager assesses the parts and holds the evidence, so here is what you get.

How Z2 helps

/1

Out-of-the-box coverage

Most of your BOM assessed against the six Saudi substances on day one from Z2's FMD and CoC database.

/2

Compliance status

Each part returned Affected, Not Affected, or Noncompliant.

/3

Item rollup

Compliance status at every level of the product hierarchy.

/4

Compliance evidence package

CoCs, FMDs, and supplier documentation behind every assessment.

/5

Supplier outreach

Z2-led campaigns collect the FMDs and CoCs you're missing.

/6

Monitoring and alerts

Notified when SASO substance requirements change.

One upload

Assess Every Part Against the Saudi List

One upload puts your whole BOM against the six Saudi-restricted substances.

  • A clear Affected, Not Affected, or Noncompliant result on each part.
  • Strong coverage from the outset on Z2's FMD and CoC database.
  • Assessed together with your EU RoHS and REACH obligations.

Evidence up front

Evidence Ready Before Goods Ship

Because market entry is settled at the border, each result carries the documentation behind it.

  • Manufacturer declarations and certificates tied to each part.
  • The applicable exemption recorded where a part relies on one.
  • Missing documents recovered through Z2-led supplier outreach.

What Saudi Arabia adds

A Shorter List, a Harder Gate

Six substances rather than ten, but the evidence has to exist before the shipment, not at audit time.

  • Six substances: lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE.
  • The four phthalates restricted under EU RoHS are not in scope here.
  • A certificate of conformity is needed before import, and Z2 supplies the substance evidence it is issued against.

One platform

Saudi RoHS Runs in Compliance Manager With the Rest

Saudi RoHS is one of 270-plus regulations Compliance Manager runs on a single BOM.

  • Evaluated beside EU RoHS, China RoHS, REACH, and your other frameworks.
  • Item rollup shows status at each level of the product hierarchy.
  • Z2's in-house materials scientist follows SASO requirement updates.

Common Questions

How does Z2 handle Saudi Arabia RoHS?

Saudi Arabia restricts six hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment under a SASO technical regulation, now in force across all product categories. Compliance Manager assesses each part against all six from the same BOM you use for your other RoHS markets, so Saudi Arabia is answered in the same pass rather than as a separate project.

Which substances does Z2 assess for Saudi RoHS?

Lead, mercury, cadmium, and hexavalent chromium, plus the PBB and PBDE flame retardants, each assessed at the homogeneous-material level against the 0.1% weight limit, with cadmium at 0.01%. The four phthalates restricted under EU RoHS are not part of the Saudi list, which is the point most teams get wrong, and Compliance Manager keeps the two scopes distinct so an EU result is not mistaken for a Saudi one.

What does Z2 give me before goods ship to Saudi Arabia?

Because products need a certificate of conformity before they can be imported and cleared, the substance record has to exist up front. Compliance Manager supplies the assessment and downloadable evidence that certificate is issued against, each part classified with its supporting documentation, so you are not chasing an FMD while a shipment waits.

Does Z2 cover the Saudi exemptions?

Saudi Arabia maintains its own fixed list of application-specific exemptions. Where a part relies on one, Compliance Manager records the applicable exemption alongside the result and keeps the supporting declaration with it, so the basis for the part passing is visible rather than assumed.

How does Saudi RoHS fit with the rest of my compliance program in Z2?

Saudi RoHS runs on the same BOM as more than 270 regulations in Compliance Manager, evaluated alongside EU RoHS, China RoHS, and REACH, with item rollup across the product hierarchy.
