Israel is one of the fastest-growing markets in automotive-tech. Here safety-systems, electronics, sensors, cameras, EV-parts, and telematics-solutions are rapidly adopted. But to join the official-supplier-chain and work with Israeli-companies, certification of automotive-components is mandatory.
Who regulates the automotive-market in Israel
Control over safety and quality of auto-parts is managed by:- Ministry of Transport and Road Safety (MOT) – sets technical and performance-requirements;
- Standards Institution of Israel (SII) – conducts testing, documentation-review, and certification;
- when needed – Ministry of Energy and Ministry of Environmental Protection, for fuel, batteries, or emission-related equipment.
Which components need certification
All parts affecting safety, energy-efficiency, or ecology must be certified:
- brake-systems, steering, suspension;
- electronics – sensors, cameras, displays, ECU-units;
- EV-batteries and charging-systems;
- lighting – headlights, signal-lights, LED-systems;
- cables, connectors, airbags, belts, crash-sensors;
- software and telematics-modules integrated into vehicles.
How the certification process works
- Application to SII or MOT – technical-drawings, ISO certificates, and test-reports are submitted.
- Standard-identification – specialists define applicable international and local-norms.
- Testing – mechanical, electrical, vibration, temperature, moisture, and corrosion tests.
- Quality-system audit – manufacturer must hold ISO 9001 or ISO/TS 16949 certification.
- Issuance of compliance-certificate – after passing all tests, the product enters the approved-components register.
How to join the approved-suppliers list
To become an official-supplier in Israel, a company must:- hold valid ISO 9001 and ISO/TS 16949 certificates;
- get MOT technical-approval and SII certification;
- confirm component-origin and quality;
- provide test-reports under global-standards (ECE R10, ECE R13, IEC 62368, ISO 26262);
- have an authorized-representative in Israel.
Benefits of certification
Certification gives companies:
- legal-entry to the Israeli-market;
- participation in public-procurement and fleet-projects;
- recognition of global-certificates without re-testing;
- stronger-trust from partners and investors;
- access to Israeli autotech firms and R&D-centers.
International certificates recognized by Israel
Israel accepts CB Scheme, UNECE E-mark, and EU CE certificates from accredited-labs – cutting local-testing time.Still, each product undergoes label, instruction, and data-check for full national-compliance.
