According to several SGS and UL publications, which I cannot send because of
copyright, Saudi Arabia does not allow abbreviations for country of origin
on product label. Reference was Saudi Law of Commercial Data, No. M/5-14
Rabi' II 1423H.
We make some of our stuff in TJ, and their import people said to me 'what
country does Mexico stand for?' And for some reason, they do not seem to
consider 'USA' an abbreviation. LULZ. The joys of global economy.

Subject: Made in PRC or Made in China?
Import of a product in Saudi-Arabia is not possible because on the product
label is printed made in PRC and while the certification body claims it
must be made in China.
Is there any reason why PRC (People's Republic of China) is not acceptable?
Best regards,
