Verification
Accreditation scope check
An accreditation scope check answers one question: does the accredited scope we hold for a laboratory mention the standard or method you need? Enter the laboratory and the standard, and the answer comes back with the evidence behind it and the date we collected the register.
How to read the answer
A positive answer means the scope of accreditation we hold names that method. It is evidence, taken from a public register on a stated date, and it is not a promise about capacity, price or turnaround.
A negative answer is worded exactly as it should be: no evidence found in the accredited scope on file. It is a statement about the document we hold, never a verdict on the laboratory. Many laboratories work under a flexible scope, so a method missing from a scope document does not mean they cannot run it. For anything that carries real consequences, confirm with the laboratory or with the accreditation body.
This is not the same as checking a certificate
This page asks whether a laboratory can do one particular standard. Whether a certificate itself is real, current and issued by the body it claims is a different question, and it has its own page. Check a certificate number for that. Looking for a laboratory rather than checking one you already have? Search the register by method or material instead.
