Finding ISO Registrars

Accreditation Bodies maintain directories of the Registrar organizations that they accredit. These directories are available on their websites. You can normally find these websites by doing a search on the Accreditation Body's name or initials.

A directory of registrars in the U.S. can also be found at the ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board website which offers access to a searchable database of accredited registrars in the United States.

In Canada, contact the Standards Council of Canada for a list of registrars. All other countries should consult the accreditation authority or member body for their country. Consult the ISO website for a complete list of ISO Member bodies.

Industry publications such as Quality Systems Update also list Registrars. Their website has a listing of Registrar's available in North America with website or addresse and phone numbers.

The Quality Digest Magazine conducts annual surveys of Registrar's clients and reports the customer satisfaction ratings in their July issue. This can be a valuable resource in selecting a Registrar suited to your needs.
