Elevator licenses and requirements in Saudi Arabia: what you need to know
23 August 2026
Installing an elevator doesn't end at operation; there are requirements and licenses ensuring its safety and legal operation. Ignoring them can expose you to liability or a shutdown.
Conformity and standards
Elevators must conform to standards approved by the Saudi Standards Organization (SASO) and adopted safety standards, with conformity certificates for imported equipment.
Municipality and operation
Municipalities and authorities require inspection and a certificate before operation, plus documented periodic maintenance ensuring ongoing safety. Maintenance isn't optional but a condition for continued safe operation.
