EU Recognition

The United Kingdom Accreditation Service is the sole UK accreditation body recognised by the UK government and also fully recognised by EU member state Governments to assess organisations that provide certification. As the UK is a primary member of the EU, only American National Standards Institute or a similar EU based accreditation body can guarantee your accreditation will be recognised by European Union Member State Governments Commerce and Industry.

Accreditation by UKAS demonstrates the competence, impartiality and performance capability of these evaluators and operates under a Memorandum of Understanding with the UK Government through the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry and is guaranteed to be recognised by ALL EU Member States.
