Go International with CCOF CCOF INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS Global Market Access Program The market for organic products continues to grow worldwide. CCOF developed the Global Market Access (GMA) program to provide access to markets that the USDA has entered into equivalence arrangements with: Canada, the EU, Japan, Korea, and Switzerland. National Program (NOP) equivalence agreements with other countries simplify organic standards for producers of exported organic products. Where there are critical variances in production or labeling requirements, our GMA program provides the service and support you need to ensure seamless exporting. CCOF International Standard Program CCOF maintains this European standards equivalence program to meet requirements and other buyer/country needs not covered by the basic GMA program and/or U.S. country-to-country agreements. The International Standard program supports operations shipping to the EU or Switzerland from outside the United States. COR Compliance Program Our Canadian Regime (COR) Compliance program provides organic certification to the COR standard for operations located in Canada. Any operation located in Canada that is seeking organic certification with CCOF must enroll in the Canadian Regime (COR) Compliance program. Additional International Services CCOF monitors changing international regulations and institutes programs, procedures, and documents to guarantee your continued access to the global market. CCOF has a long history of international market recognition and client access. We routinely work with foreign certifiers and governments to clarify requirements and address their concerns. Part of CCOF s International Program is continual work towards reducing barriers and paperwork, and supporting broad equivalence agreements. In addition to the requirements of governmental bodies, some export markets also demand certification or approval by private bodies. Additionally, some buyers may desire direct governmental certification. Need additional export documentation or verifications? If so, CCOF can help. Please contact us at export@ccof.org to discuss your needs. CCOF Accreditations CCOF is accredited by the USDA Agriculture Marketing Service (AMS) for certification to the USDA National Program (NOP). To allow CCOF-certified operations to export to as many global markets as possible, we are also accredited to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Guide 17065 for equivalence with the European Economic Community (EEC) Regulations 834/2007 and Swiss Ordinances, and for compliance with the Canadian Regime (COR). Questions about the international organic marketplace? We are happy to answer your questions. To learn more and review country specific information, visit www.ccof.org/international.
