RoHS Compliance: Global Standards & GCC Regional Requirements

In today’s regulated landscape, RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance is the "green passport" for electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). While the directive originated in the EU, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia (KSA) have implemented their own rigorous technical regulations that are mandatory for market entry.

The Global Standard: 10 Restricted Substances

Substance Limit (ppm) Limit (%)
Lead (Pb)1000 ppm0.1%
Mercury (Hg)1000 ppm0.1%
Cadmium (Cd)100 ppm0.01%
Hexavalent Chromium (Cr VI)1000 ppm0.1%
PBB & PBDE (Flame Retardants)1000 ppm0.1%
Phthalates (DEHP, BBP, DBP, DIBP)1000 ppm0.1%

UAE RoHS Requirements (MoIAT / ECAS)

Enforced under Cabinet Decision No. 10 of 2017. Mandatory ECAS RoHS Certificate (1-year CoC). Phthalates mandatory since January 2022 across all categories.

Saudi Arabia RoHS (SASO / SABER)

Mandatory SABER registration for Shipment Certificate. Aligned with EU RoHS 3 (10 substances). Requires Arabic labeling and comprehensive technical files.

GCC & GSO Outlook

GSO Strategy 2026–2030 → green economy focus. RoHS-like rules expected across all GCC states soon. G-Mark complements (not replaces) RoHS.
