When Is the Best Time To Transfer Certification Bodies?

A company can transfer their certificate at any time throughout the three-year life cycle of the ISO certification. However, we recommend contacting us at least three months before your certification expires.

What Are the Requirements To Transfer an ISO Certification to Amtivo?

The minimum requirement is that the existing certification is accredited through a recognised accreditation body (INAB, UKAS, ANAB etc). Some additional documentation, such as previous audit reports, will also need to be provided, but our Sales Team will be happy to discuss this with you.
