Introduction
The Israeli Standards Institute SII is Israel’s largest technical organization and it’s a non-governmental organization, but it is directly managed by the Israeli government. Under the leadership of the Israeli Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor (Ministry of Industry and Trade), it is responsible for standard setting, certification and product testing. Ensure that the products produced or imported in the country meet the quality requirements. For controlled electronic and electrical products, in accordance with regulatory requirements, imported products must obtain SII type certification applications before they can be cleared and sold.
SII certification classification and application process
1. Standards Mark certification: Voluntary + Compulsory Certification. In principle, it is voluntary certification, but compulsory certification requirements are implemented for Class I products.
(1) Compulsory products include: Class I products, specifically including storage solar water heaters, plugs and sockets, lamps, ballasts, lamp holders, household gas appliances, portable electric immersion heaters, electric kettles, fire extinguishing devices, washing machines, refrigerators , Air conditioners, household heating/cooking/frying appliances, elevators, electric blankets, primary battery packs, etc.
(2) Certification procedure: SII product test + SII first factory inspection + SII annual factory inspection = SII certificate

2. Safety Mark certification: voluntary certification. It is also mainly for class I products. The main effect of applying for this certification is to reduce the customs inspection procedures and enter the market in a short time. Unlike standard mark certification, safety mark certification does not require factory inspection.
(1) Compulsory products include: Class I products.
(2) Certification procedure: SII product test = SII certificate
(3) Logo: as shown below:
3. Type Approval of SII Type Approval: The method generally adopted at present. After the application is approved, the mark will not be granted, but the products are allowed to be imported and sold after the customs conducts the compliance inspection before shipment. No inspection requirements.
4. SII Shipment Inspection: When the goods arrive at the port, the Israeli customs will test and inspect the products batch by batch. This approach is more risky.
