Laboratory Accreditation Bodies Compared
One standard, many bodies — here is the map.
All built on ISO/IEC 17025:2017
Every major accreditation body below assesses laboratories against ISO/IEC 17025:2017 (the current third edition). The standard is identical; what differs is the region, the body's own criteria, and the mutual-recognition network your customers care about.
| Body | Region | Criteria basis |
|---|---|---|
| NABL | India | ISO/IEC 17025:2017 |
| CNAS | China | CNAS-CL01:2018 (= 17025:2017) |
| UKAS | United Kingdom | ISO/IEC 17025:2017 |
| A2LA | United States | ISO/IEC 17025:2017 |
| NATA | Australia & NZ | ISO/IEC 17025:2017 (MR001) |
| SINGLAS | Singapore | ISO/IEC 17025:2017 |
Where GLP is different
GLP is not an accreditation body — it is a quality system (OECD Principles) for non-clinical study conduct, distinct from 17025's testing/calibration competence. See the GLP vs 17025 guide.
