If you are a CAB and want to get accredited to conduct MSC assessments, please contact Accreditation Services International GmbH (ASI) – an independent organisation that accredits CABs to conduct MSC assessments.ASI - Accreditation Services InternationalFriedrich-Ebert-Allee 6953113 Bonn, GermanyPhone: +49-228 / 227237Fax: +49-228 / 227237-30Email: asi-info@accreditation-services.comIf you are a certifier and want to get accredited to conduct MSC assessments, please consult the list of accredited certification bodies.To ensure the complete independence from the certification process, the MSC assessment is carried out by accredited CABs only. To obtain accreditation, a CAB must meet the requirements set out in the MSC Certification Requirements. This ensures certification remains robust, credible and meets best practice guidelines for standard-setting organisations as set out by ISEAL and the FAO.
