Evidence that withstands scrutiny
Evidence that withstands scrutiny
Buyers routinely accept a scanned accreditation certificate as proof that a body can perform the work in front of it. The certificate proves the body is accredited for something. The schedule proves it is accredited for this. These six checks take about fifteen minutes and prevent the failure that shows up latest and costs most.
Compare it to the entity that will sign your contract and your statement. Group names, trading names and local affiliates are not the same thing. The accreditation attaches to a specific legal person.
IdentityFor validation and verification, that is ISO/IEC 17029:2019 with ISO 14065:2020. For management-system certification, ISO/IEC 17021-1:2015. A body accredited to the second cannot issue what the first produces.
ActivityWhich standards, which sectors, which activities. Accreditation under ISO/IEC 17029 does not mean accreditation for every programme — the schedule lists the ones granted.
The scheduleAccreditation is granted for recorded locations. An office in your country is not accreditation in your country, and its absence is not the reverse. Read the geography, not the address list.
TerritoryIssue date, expiry date, and — separately — whether the accreditation is currently suspended, withdrawn or restricted. A certificate is a snapshot; the accreditation body's register is the current position.
CurrencyConfirm the accreditation body is a signatory to the relevant multilateral arrangement for the activity, if cross-border recognition matters to your user.

CBAM verification has its own accreditation route. Under Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/2551, accreditation of CBAM verifiers is granted by the national accreditation bodies of EU countries, against defined scopes covering the aggregated goods categories plus separate scopes for carbon capture, utilisation and storage, imported electricity and indirect emissions. The regulation identifies EN ISO/IEC 17029:2019 as the harmonised standard, sets competence requirements for CBAM auditors, lead auditors and independent reviewers, and requires annual surveillance by the accreditation body. Source: EUR-Lex — Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/2551, checked 01 September 2026.
The practical consequence for a buyer: an existing ISO/IEC 17029 accreditation for GHG programmes does not authorise CBAM verification. Ask for the CBAM accreditation specifically, from an EU national accreditation body, with a scope that names the goods category you produce.
Applying our own test to ourselves: our CBAM application has been formally accepted by ACCREDIA under ref. DC26PRT0296 and the assessment is underway. We are not accredited for CBAM verification today, and we do not offer it as an accredited service.
Editorial note. Author and technical review above are editorial functions. They are separate from the independent technical review and the decision functions required under ISO/IEC 17029:2019, which apply to validation and verification engagements and not to published articles. Nothing on this page is advice on a specific engagement, and nothing here extends or replaces the accreditation records.
Tell us what must be relied on, who will rely on it and by what date. We will confirm the correct programme, evidence requirement and responsible entity — or tell you it is outside our scope.
