Referring to ISO standards in Internal Documents

Can I call an ISO standard, for example "ISO 9001", instead of "ISO 9001:2008" in a document such as a Quality Manual?

I don't want to have to update it each time ISO put out a new version.

(Of course I would update the document if the new version necessitated changes be made to our process).

Thanks in advance!

It's not even required that you refer to the standard at all.

There. Fixed that for you.

You can reference ISO 9001 without the release year.

Look at what ISO do

ISO9001:2008 said:
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

Yes. And there's a lot of benefits in leaving out the version number (saves updating and you can just use it to refer to whatever is the current one).

For one of my customers in medical device I have written the following guidance document. Please note that medical device industry uses a lot of product standards to which they claim compliance in order to meet regulatory safety and effectiveness requirements. To substantiate their claim, quality system documents and protocols should meet the specified revision of the referenced standard. In order to maintain the conformity of the QS documents to the standards it is critical to provide dated references.
