Global ACI itself does not assess and accredit conformity assessment bodies (CABs). Instead, the accreditation bodies that are Full Members of Global ACI (signatories to the Global ACI Multilateral Recognition Arrangement [MRA]), have been peer evaluated to assess and accredit testing laboratories (using ISO/IEC 17025), calibration laboratories (using ISO/IEC 17025), inspection bodies (using ISO/IEC 17020), management system certification bodies (using ISO/IEC 17021-1), product certification bodies (using ISO/IEC 17065), medical testing laboratories (using ISO 15189), proficiency testing providers (using ISO/IEC 17043), persons certification bodies (using ISO/IEC 17024), validation/verification bodies (using ISO/IEC 17029), reference material producers (using ISO 17034), and biobanking facilities (using ISO 20387). CABs that have been accredited by the Global ACI MRA signatories against the relevant international standards are able to be recognised internationally under the Global ACI MRA.

If you would like the accreditation of your CAB to be recognised internationally under the Global ACI MRA, you should contact an accreditation body that is a Global ACI MRA signatory for the relevant accreditation activities. The Global ACI MRA signatory page  provides the contact details for accreditation body signatories.

Note that not all accreditation bodies that are members of Global ACI are also signatories to the Global ACI MRA, and therefore the results from their accredited CABs may not be recognised in other economies. The lists of all accreditation bodies that are members of Global ACI, including Full Members and Associate Members, are available here.
