Certification Review

Check the document, the scope and the validity

Certification requirements depend on the ingredient, manufacturing site and destination market. Use this checklist to request applicable documents. A certificate covering one site or product does not establish coverage for the whole catalog.

Legal entity & site

Match the certificate holder and site address to the manufacturer identified in your quotation. Request the certificate number and issuing body.

Scope & validity

Read the scope, covered activities, issue date and expiry date. Check current status with the issuer where possible; a logo alone is not sufficient.

Quality & food-safety systems

If your supplier policy requires ISO 9001, ISO 22000, HACCP or GMP-related documentation, specify the scheme and applicable regulatory context. Ask what is available for the proposed site; these schemes are not interchangeable.

Product-specific requirements

If Halal, Kosher or other product certification is required, request a current product schedule and check the exact ingredient, carrier and manufacturing site. Confirm destination-market acceptance.

COA is a different document

A Certificate of Analysis reports results for a stated sample or batch. It is not a management-system certificate or proof that an ingredient is authorized for every use.
