Who to trust

Certification bodies, accreditation bodies, International Standards Organization… who’s in charge around here? Here we explore the organizational structure of your certification.

We work with our accredited partners to provide you with a choice of IAF endorsed accreditation. Whilst all the certification services we provide are endorsed by the IAF and are recognized in equal stature globally, we want to find the right fit for your organization.

Key Points

It’s important to note that any ISO management system certificate bearing either the UKAS, IAS or ANAB mark is both equal and interchangeable in any nation within the International Accreditation Forum Scheme. Valid certificates can be freely transferred between Accredited Certification Bodies.

Conversely, certification not issued by an Accredited Certification Body may not have been subject to the same level of due-diligence and therefore cannot be transferred freely and may not recognized by your pier organizations.
