ISO Member countries have organizations that are chartered to accredit Registrars. In the US, it's the Registrar Accreditation Board (RAB); in Canada, the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), and in the Netherlands, the Raad Voor Accreditatie (RvA).
The American Society for Quality (ASQ) established the Registrar Accreditation Board (RAB) in 1989. In 1991, ANSI and RAB joined forces to establish the American National Accreditation Program (NAP) for Registrars of Quality Systems. In On January 1, 2005, RAB and the ANSI-RAB NAP was replaced by the ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board.
These Accreditation Bodies publish the requirements that they set forth for Registrars to become accredited. These requirements generally follow other ISO documents. The Accreditation bodies regularly audit registrars' procedures, systems and audit practices to ensure they meet and maintain systems to the ISO requirements.
