How Long is the ISO 10002:2018 Certificate Valid?
The ISO certificate is valid for 3 years. However, to maintain its validity, annual surveillance audits must be conducted to ensure the system’s effectiveness and continuous improvement.

Reminder:
Failure to conduct the required annual surveillance audits will result in the certificate becoming invalid.
