IAF Mandatory Documents (MD Series) - Required to be used by certification bodies.

The IAF has updated its MD4 document which defines the rules for remote auditing by registrars.

IAF Mandatory documents are not intended to establish, interpret, subtract from or add to the requirements of any ISO/IEC Guide or Standard, but simply to assure consistent application of those Guides or Standards.

A point of clarification - they are to be used by Certification bodies, as part of their accreditation. ABs don't use them.

Correct. The requirements are aimed at the CB's, but, let's remember, the AB's use them during the oversight process of the CB's. PS. Actually many of the documents are aimed exclusively to AB’s.

By, the way, we've had a thread on this since 2008 IAF Mandatory Documents (MD Series) as of May 2016
