Question 34.5 Certification Marks

The CB would like use a mark accompanied with the picture where only the name of the corporate appears together with letters indicating the country. Of course the certification requirement is referenced too e.g. ISO 9001 or ISO 14001.

The problem is that XXXXXX has a lot of other activities outside certification (training, advisory services etc.) and the certification activities are performed by the daughter company of XXXXXX, the legal entity XXXXXX Certification Ltd which is the CAB (legal entity) accredited.

We would appreciate view of other NABs on implementation of clause 8.3.1 of ISO/IEC 17021-1 which the proposal maybe doesn’t comply with.

I think the traceability to the certification body is becoming more and more important once the references to certification can appear also in product packages.

Unfortunately send the model cannot be attached for confidentiality reasons.
