    IMS Certification FAQ

    What is the difference between accredited and non-accredited ISO 9001 certification?

    Accredited ISO 9001 certification is issued by a certification body formally evaluated by a recognized accreditation body (like IAS or UAF), while non-accredited certification carries no independent verification of the certifier's competence. Non-accredited certificates are often not accepted for government tenders, international contracts, or by multinational companies, and cannot be verified through IAF CertSearch.

    How do I verify if an ISO 9001 certificate from Iraq is genuine?

    You can verify an ISO 9001 certificate's authenticity through the IAF CertSearch global database by entering the certificate number or organization name. AGS also provides a dedicated certificate verification tool for quick status checks. Certificates from accredited bodies are registered in IAF CertSearch, where you can check current status, scope, and accreditation details.

    Can a USA-headquartered certification body certify my company in Iraq?

    Yes. AGS is headquartered in the USA with a regional office in Basra, Iraq, and provides on-site audits across Baghdad, Erbil, and other Iraqi cities by locally based auditors. International certification bodies routinely operate across borders through local offices or qualified representatives. AGS's structure ensures both global standards and local presence.

    What are surveillance audits and why are they required?

    Surveillance audits are annual assessments performed in years 1 and 2 of your 3-year certification cycle to verify that your quality management system continues to conform to ISO 9001 requirements. These audits ensure your QMS remains effective and continuously improves, rather than being a one-time effort. They are mandatory to maintain certification.

    Is ISO 9001 certification required for Iraqi government tenders?

    Yes, ISO 9001 certification is increasingly listed as a mandatory requirement or a significant evaluation criterion in Iraqi government tenders, particularly for construction, services, and supply contracts. This is common in tenders issued by the Oil Ministry, Ministry of Construction and Housing, and Ministry of Electricity. Accredited certification carries more weight in tender evaluations than non-accredited alternatives.

    Do you offer Arabic-language documentation support?

    Yes. Auditors review in Arabic or English, conduct interviews in Arabic, and deliver bilingual reports.
