Gulf Technical Regulation on Low Voltage Equipment ("G-mark")
Our global solution for compliance with the Gulf standards and requirements of the GCC countries
Manufacturers and importers of electrical products exported to the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member countries (United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait) as well as Yemen need to comply with the Gulf Technical Regulation for Low Voltage Electrical Equipment and Appliances (BD-142004-01). Designated products in List (2) of the regulation (see above) require certification by a GSO Notified Body and marking their products with the Gulf Conformity Marking (G-mark).
TUV Rheinland was the first international organization to be registered by GSO for this regulation. With our global network of laboratories and inspection offices we can provide tests and measurements for safety, EMC and energy efficiency as well as the mandatory Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) to comply not only with the regional G-mark but also the national schemes of the Gulf countries. We offer the complete Market Access solution to the Middle East, always close to you. Ask how our efficient certification process can help you sell your products in all GCC member countries !
