How to request a Transaction Certificate

1. Product Review

Organic products must comply with or be equivalent to the standards of a foreign market to be sold as organic in that market. CCOF provides verification to these requirements through our Global Market Access (GMA) and Mexico Compliance Programs. Products must be reviewed and compliant before a Transaction Certificate can be issued. Review your CCOF Client Profile to find international market compliance and contact your Certification Service Specialist or email export@ccof.org with any questions.

2. Shipment Ready

Once you know the details of your shipment you will need a destination specific Transaction Certificate for each shipment of goods. These documents verify that the product to be shipped meets necessary standards for the destination market, either through equivalence or direct compliance.

3. Transaction Certificate Request

Complete the appropriate certificate below using the instructions on the last page of the request packet. Send entire packet to export@ccof.org and allow 3-5 business days for processing. Review the request packet cover sheet for Rush Service options.
