ISAC - Icelandic Service for Accreditation

ISAC is the national accreditation body in Iceland and provides all types of accreditations, both where there is a legal requirement for accreditation and in areas where it is up to an organisation to have its activities accredited. Accreditation is a formal recognition by the competent authority that an organisation (such as a certification body, or an inspection body) is qualified to perform certain tasks regarding conformity assessment (such as certification of quality management systems, or vehicle inspection). Conformity assessment is a process that demonstrates whether specific requirements in relation to a product, process, service, system, person or organisation have been met.
