This procedure relates to companies from the Middle East region applying for registration. Companies from
outside this region will be automatically directed to alternative sites to register with our overseas offices.

What happens next?

SRU shall review your registration request – along with financial statements, your plant’s technical
qualification/certifications, and Quality Management System (QMS) manual – to ensure completeness and
accuracy.

SRU shall conduct a preliminary screening evaluation with your factory management personnel to ensure
their readiness for the inspection.

SRU shall schedule an official plant visit and technical survey with the plant management. We shall then
communicate the findings of the survey, noting any deficiencies requiring corrective action. SRU in
coordination with Saudi Aramco Technical and Quality entities might choose to conduct screening
meeting in Saudi Aramco/ Dhahran prior to conducting the plant survey to ensure manufacturer
readiness for plant survey.

If the results of the plant survey are acceptable, SRU shall send your management office a letter indicating
approval for specific products and providing a unique vendor identification number.

Registering as an international manufacturer

Prior to doing business with Saudi Aramco, international manufacturers shall first register with Saudi
Aramco’s overseas affiliate offices closest to them.

See Saudi Aramco Offices Contact Information.

When an international manufacturer appoints a Saudi Arabian vendor as its representative in Saudi Arabia,
Saudi Arabian vendor shall obtain appointment letter from the International manufacturer addressed to SRU
and an agency certificate from Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MOCI).

If an international manufacturer’s appointed Saudi Arabian vendor is not registered with Saudi Aramco they
should follow the procedure outlined above in section: Manufacturers and vendors in Saudi Arabia and
surrounding area. Any changes to these arrangements, including termination, shall be immediately
communicated to SRU.

International manufacturers shall be expected to fulfill all existing purchase order obligations with their
former Saudi vendors regardless of changes in agency agreements and associations.
