IAF CertSearch is the global database where individual accredited certificates from around the world can be validated, and we in the process of building that database.

The IAF CertSearch platform has been built and is now receiving data from IAF, IAF’s Accreditation Body members (ABs) and their accredited Certification Bodies (CBs). Progress on data collection continues and as more and more CBs get on board and certificate details continue to be added, it will make IAF CertSearch the prominent single source to validate certificates.

IAF CertSearch continues to receive widespread support from a number of regulators and industry bodies around the world. Once IAF CertSearch is live to the public an official public announcement will be made by the IAF.
