Validity of accreditations


Transition provisions for "old accreditations" 

Existing accreditations from accreditation bodies that were transferred to DAkkS (DACH, DAP, TGA/DATech und DKD) or other government and private accreditation bodies will remain valid until their expiry date (but no later than 31 December 2014). If they are listed in the database of accredited bodies, they will now be monitored by DAkkS.
