OF CERTIFICATION BODIES

Application for PEFC Notification of Certification Bodies Operating Forest Management Certification and Chain of Custody Certification under the MTCS

A Certification Body (CB) under the MTCS provides a systematic, independent and documented process of third party conformity assessment of forest management or chain of custody certification. As the MTCS is a PEFC endorsed scheme, the CB is also required to meet the requirements defined by the PEFC Council. The CB would be required to apply for PEFC notification from MTCC and upon notification, the CB would be able to issue PEFC recognised forest management/chain of custody certificate under the MTCS.

Before applying for PEFC Notification under the MTCS, the following prerequisites must be met:

  • The company, business or society is a legal entity in Malaysia; or a legal entity in the country concerned, if outside Malaysia   
  • The CB in Malaysia has a valid accreditation certificate issued by the Department of Standards Malaysia for product certification of the International Accreditation Forum (IAF);
  • The CB outside Malaysia has a valid accreditation certificate issued by accreditation bodies that are signatories of the Multilateral Recognition Arrangement (MLA) for product certification of IAF, or IAF’s Regional Accreditation Groups such as European cooperation for Accreditation (EA), Interamerican Accreditation Cooperation (IAAC), Pacific Accreditation Cooperation (PAC) and Southern African Development Community in Accreditation (SADCA).
