The Validity of ISO 22000 Certificate and the Continuous Monitoring Process

How Long is the ISO 22000 Certificate Valid?

The ISO 22000 certificate is a document that demonstrates a company's food safety management system's compliance with international standards. Obtaining this certificate helps businesses prove that they produce high-quality and safe food. However, the validity of this certificate is limited to a specific period, and during this time, businesses must continuously meet certain requirements.

The validity of the ISO 22000 certificate is generally 3 years. However, during this period, businesses are subjected to audits at specific intervals. The purpose of these audits is to evaluate whether the business continues to comply with ISO 22000 standards. At Kayra Certification, we effectively manage the monitoring and auditing processes required for businesses to maintain the validity of their ISO 22000 certificate.

Validity Duration and Continuous Monitoring of ISO 22000 Certificate:
Validity Duration: The ISO 22000 certificate is generally valid for 3 years. During this period, businesses must undergo audits at regular intervals to maintain the certificate's validity. To keep the certification valid, annual surveillance audits must be passed successfully.

Monitoring and Audits: To maintain the validity of the ISO 22000 certificate, an annual surveillance audit is conducted every 12 months. These audits continuously check the business's compliance with specific ISO 22000 standards. Additionally, a recertification audit is carried out every three years. At Kayra Certification, we guide your business through these processes and provide the necessary support to ensure the validity of your certificate.

Recertification: Before the ISO 22000 certificate expires, businesses must go through the recertification process. This process involves a comprehensive audit that reassesses the company's compliance with the standards. Kayra Certification helps businesses manage the recertification process and make necessary improvements.

Continuous Improvement: ISO 22000 is based on the principle of continuous improvement. Therefore, after obtaining the certification, businesses must continuously review and improve their systems. Ongoing monitoring and audits help maintain the validity of the ISO 22000 certificate. Kayra Certification makes this process easy and effective for you.
