How can I change Certification Bodies?

If you change Certification Bodies, you must adapt the change accordingly on your registration in the ISCC HUB. Please see section 3.3.4.2. of the ISCC HUB Manual for System Users for detailed instructions. The new Certification Body must then check and accept the requested change before the new Certification Body is stated in the registration.

If a System User decides to change their Certification Body, requirements for the integrity of the system must be met, e.g., regarding the provision of audit reports to the new Certification Body. If a System User changes Certification Bodies twice within a period of five years, the Certification Body newly contracted by the System User for the second change has to apply a higher risk level for the next scheduled audit, i.e. the risk level must be higher than the risk level applied for the previous audit. All requirements can be found in ISCC EU System Document 103 - Requirements for Certification Bodies and Auditors.
