Frequently Asked Questions

TÜRKAK is Turkey’s sole national accreditation body and verifies that conformity assessment bodies operate in accordance with national and international standards. TÜRKAK-accredited certificates are valid throughout Europe and worldwide thanks to the EA and Global ACI multilateral recognition agreements.

USB Certification holds product certification from TÜRKAK under ISO/IEC 17065 (Organic Agriculture, BRCGS, and IFS standards; authorized body) and laboratory accreditation under ISO/IEC 17025. The relevant accreditation certificates are listed in the TÜRKAK registry under the numbers AB-0034-U, AB-0195-U, and AB-1890-T.

TURKAK’s full membership to these two organizations ensures that the documents issued under accreditation are accepted as equivalent by the European Union member states and other national accreditation bodies worldwide.
