Requirements for the operation of various types of bodies performing inspection are defined in ISO 17020.
As well as the below publications, all applicant organisations must be aware of the Accreditation: General Requirements documents, which includes fees information. These can be accessed from the 'How do I apply?' page.
The following ASCB documents apply:
Guide ASL(G)54 Inspection Body accreditation
Form ASL(F)51 Application form
Guide ASL(G)56 Terms for Inspection Bodies
Instruction ASL(I)20 Word for inspection test reports and certificates
Our inspection body fees are linked to the scale of the organization's operations, as this is linked to the amount of quality assurance sampling we are required to conduct. Please contact us to receive a questionnaire to help us determine the assessment duration and fees for your organization.
