ISO management systems
What ISO certification means
Management-system standards help an organization define responsibilities, control important processes, evaluate performance and improve. The right standard depends on what the organization does and the outcome it needs to manage.
A certificate should identify the organization, relevant ISO standard, approved scope and validity information. Certificates issued through ISO Cert India include a unique number and a QR-linked public verification record.

Non-IAF transparency
Check acceptance before you apply
ISO Cert India currently supports Non-IAF certification. It may be suitable where a Non-IAF certificate is accepted, but it will not satisfy a requirement that explicitly asks for IAF-accredited certification.
Review the tender, customer, regulator or marketplace condition first. If the wording is unclear, share it with us before proceeding.
Cost and timeline
What determines the requirement?
The applicable work depends on the selected standard, organization scope, number of locations, information readiness and intended use. We do not publish a generic price or completion promise that may be misleading.

Questions to resolve before applying
Clear answers help prevent a mismatch between the selected standard, accreditation requirement and intended use.
Browse all FAQs →How do I choose the correct ISO standard?
Start with the management outcome you need: quality, environment, food safety, information security, or occupational health and safety. The organization’s real activities, scope and intended certificate use should then be reviewed.
Can one organization use more than one ISO standard?
Yes. An organization may use multiple management systems where its objectives and risks overlap, such as quality with environmental management or information security. Each requirement should be assessed against the actual scope.
Is the certification offered by ISO Cert India IAF accredited?
No. ISO Cert India currently supports Non-IAF certification. Confirm whether a customer, tender, regulator or marketplace specifically requires IAF-accredited certification before applying.
What should I prepare for the initial consultation?
Prepare the organization name and address, owner or authorized person, products or services, intended certification scope, preferred standard and the wording of any customer or tender requirement.
