Yes

If the refund is related to SEZ supplies then no declaration or certificate from CA is required .
As per Rule 89(2)
[l] a declaration to the effect that the incidence of tax, interest or any other amount claimed as refund has not been passed on to any other person, in a case where the amount of refund claimed does not exceed two lakh rupees:

Provided that a declaration is not required to be furnished in respect of the cases covered under clause [a] or clause [b] or clause [c] or clause [d] or clause [f] of sub-section [8] of section 54;

[m] a Certificate in Annexure 2 of FORM GST RFD-01 issued by a chartered accountant or a cost accountant to the effect that the incidence of tax, interest or any other amount claimed as refund has not been passed on to any other person, in a case where the amount of refund claimed exceeds two lakh rupees:

Provided that a certificate is not required to be furnished in respect of cases covered under clause [a] or clause [b] or clause [c] or clause [d] or clause [f] of subsection [8] of section 54;

As it is clearly mentioned that certificate is not required if refund is under clause [a] or clause [b] or clause [c] or clause [d] or clause [f] of subsection [8] of section 54
and clause (a) is related to zero rated supply which includes Sez supply.

Read last para of Rule 89(2)(l) and (m) which says that certificate or declaration is not required in case refund is under clause [a] or clause [b] or clause [c] or clause [d] or clause [f] of subsection [8] of section 54
and clause (a) is related to zero rated supply which includes Sez supply. Hence certificate or declaration is not required in case of refund related to SEZ supply.
