Israel is one of the world’s tech-centers – its computer-hardware market grows fast and demands high-quality. The country not only imports and uses advanced-tech but also sets strict-safety and quality-requirements for all computer-equipment and parts. Compliance-check with international-standards is a must for every manufacturer or supplier aiming to enter the Israeli-market.

Who oversees the compliance 

Two main-bodies control compliance in Israel:
  • Standards Institution of Israel (SII) – handles technical-certification, testing, and issuance of compliance-certificates;
  • Ministry of Communications (MoC) – manages devices with radio-modules, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or other wireless-features.
Both agencies follow IEC, EN, and ISO norms adapted to national-standards.
Which equipment is subject to inspection
Almost all computer-devices and components require testing:
  • laptops, desktops, servers;
  • monitors, power-supplies, motherboards;
  • routers, modems, network-adapters;
  • peripherals – keyboards, mice, drives;
  • industrial-computers and server-components.
If a device includes a radio-module, additional-certification for wireless and EMC compliance is required.
Main-standards used in Israel
Compliance-checks are based on global-standards recognized worldwide:
  • IEC 62368 TI – safety of IT and telecom-equipment;
  • IEC 61000 – electromagnetic-compatibility (EMS);
  • IEC 60950 – still valid for older-models;
  • ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 – quality and environmental-management standards.
These define requirements for electrical-safety, interference-resistance, mechanical-strength, heating, and build-quality.
How the inspection process works
  1. Document-review – manufacturer or importer submits technical-files, schematics, and international-test reports.
  2. Lab-tests in Israel – safety and EMC testing performed locally.
  3. Label and manual-check – info must be in English or Hebrew, showing model, voltage, warnings, and manufacturer-data.
  4. SII certificate issuance – confirms full compliance with Israeli and international-standards.
If the product includes radio-modules, parallel approval by MoC is required for wireless-use authorization.
Recognition of international-certificates
Israel participates in the CB Scheme, so test-reports issued abroad (IEC 62368-1, IEC 61000) are often accepted without re-testing. This saves time and cost.
Still, SII must verify documents and labeling before import approval.
Why it matters for business

Certification of computer-equipment in Israel is not just a formality – it’s proof of reliability and quality. 

It ensures:
  • legal-access to the Israeli-market;
  • compliance with international-safety-standards;
  • higher customer and distributor trust;
  • reduced risk of defects and recalls;
  • easier export to other countries with similar norms.
