Hello everybody,
We are a small company in Romania.
We obtained our ISO 9001 Certificate about a month ago from a "registrar" that was recommend to us by a business partner. He told us that the auditors are ok, and indeed, the audit went very nice. We were impressed by our partner's stories and we didn't check if our registrar had been accredited itself. It is not.
So, we are told that only certificates issued by an accredited registrar are valid.
In our country there are a few bodies recognized by an accreditation Body - The Romanian Accreditation Body - and one body accredited by UKAS.
Moreover, on our certificate the is also the logo of EFQM, whom we supposed is the accreditation body for our registrar, but I searched their site and I see that they do not give accreditions for registrars. I also need to say that we are not the only company given the certificate by this registrar.
I don't really understand whether our certificate is valid or not. Any clues?
Thank you
