The International Accreditation Agency (IAA) is an independent and ‘not-for-profit’ agency which is funded through fees charged for its accreditation services to Certification Bodies.

As the international accreditation agency, the IAA promotes the mutual recognition of accreditation agencies for the benefit of worldwide ISO certification, recognition and continued development of International Standards.

The IAA firmly believes that its approach encourages the proliferation of harmonised standards resulting in increased international trade, commerce and employment.

Certification bodies that share this philosophy and are interested in membership of the IAA are invited to contact the IAA’s Director General.
