Accreditation Specifications RvA (ASR’s)

ASR’s describe accreditation requirements for a specific topic, standard, or type of institution. The document includes obligations for the RvA and the CABs.

At this moment not all Specific Accreditation Protocols (SAP’s) and Explanatory Documents (T-documents) have yet been revised and replaced bij ASR’s. Therefore, it is possible that when opening a ASR-document, you may still open a SAP- or T-document.

ASR001 (found under Accreditation Specifications General) provides an overview of all documents issued by the RvA, EA, IAF, and ILAC that apply to the various accreditations. For RvA-documents that have not yet been revised after September 15th, 2025, ASR001 shows both the current code of the (SAP- or T-document) and the future ASR-code.
