The JAS-AAS accredited procedure ‘Amended Scope, Suspension, Withdrawal, and Cancellation’ outlines the situations under which we may place the accreditation of certification and inspection bodies under suspension, withdraw, cancel, or amend. Additionally, from time to time certification and inspection bodies may elect to voluntarily place their accreditation under suspension or request that it be withdrawn. The notices of such actions are included on the JAS-AAS register under the ‘Accredited Bodies Search’; however they are not retained on that page past six months.
Cancellations
The JAS-AAS Accreditation Procedure entitled “Revised Scope, Suspension, Withdrawal, and Revocation” outlines the circumstances under which certification and inspection bodies may suspend, withdraw, revoke, or modify accreditation. Accreditation may be revoked if entities fail to meet required standards, engage in fraudulent activities, provide false information, or exhibit unethical practices. The purpose of this cancellation is to maintain the integrity and credibility of the certification and inspection processes, protect the interests of stakeholders, and maintain public confidence.
In addition to revocation, certification and inspection bodies may voluntarily suspend or withdraw their accreditation due to internal reorganization, strategic decisions, or changes in focus. These voluntary actions are separate from the cancellation process.
The JAS-AAS Register promptly publishes notices of revocation, voluntary suspension, and withdrawal under the “Accreditation Body Search” section. It is important for stakeholders and interested parties to regularly review this register to keep abreast of any changes in accreditation status. However, it’s important to note that this information is kept in the register for only six months, so it’s advisable to promptly collect any relevant information within this time frame.
JAS-AAS maintains high standards and procedures to ensure the quality and reliability of accreditation. De-accreditation is a necessary step to maintain the integrity of the certification and inspection processes and to maintain trust and confidence in the accrediting bodies.
Withdrawals
The JAS-AAS procedure “Revised Scope, Suspension, Withdrawal, and Revocation” outlines the conditions under which certification and inspection bodies may withdraw their accreditation. Bodies may withdraw accreditation voluntarily or upon request for other reasons. Voluntary withdrawals may occur due to internal factors such as organizational changes or strategic changes.

Withdrawal of accreditation signifies the permanent termination of an institution’s accreditation status and their affiliation with the JAS-AAS program. This decision can affect the body’s reputation and ability to function in certain contexts. JAS-AAS follows strict procedures to maintain credibility and reliability of accreditation. Withdrawal ensures the integrity of certification and inspection processes and provides transparency to stakeholders.

The purpose of the reduction in scope is to ensure that the capabilities of accredited bodies are commensurate with their current capabilities and resources, enabling them to maintain the highest standards of quality and performance.
Information on scope reduction is available in the JAS-AAS register, particularly in the ‘Validation Body Search’ section. However, it’s important to note that the page doesn’t retain notices regarding scope reduction for more than six months.
