On October 1, 2015, the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) and the ISO organization published a joint notice “Joint IAF-ISO Communiqué on the publication and transition of ISO 9001:2015”. Based on that notification, the validity of the certificates for ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2004 expires on September 14, 2018 at the latest.

Audits of certified clients, in terms of the transition to new editions of standards, will be conducted during regular supervisory audits or during the recertification process, which will be separately agreed upon with each client.
