Frequently asked questions
Is ISO certification issued by the government?
No. ISO writes the standards but does not certify. Certificates are issued by independent certification bodies, and accreditation by NABCB or another IAF member is what gives them credibility.
How long is the certificate valid?
Three years, subject to passing annual surveillance audits.
Which standard do I need?
ISO 9001 covers quality management and suits most businesses. ISO 27001 covers information security, ISO 14001 environment and ISO 45001 workplace safety.
