    • Intertek – ISO 18788, PSC.1

  2. In those countries where the National Accreditation Body (member of IAF/MLA) does not offer accreditation programmes to the Board recognised standards, by an independent Certification Body accredited to ISO 17021. In these cases, the Association will conduct additional due diligence to assess the competency of the CB to issue certification to the Board recognised standards. The Certification Bodies providing certification recognised by the ICoCA as valid for ICoCA Certification currently are:
    • DNV-GL Singapore – ISO 28007
