- The term "certification" refers to the process by which approved certification bodies, based on an audit of food factories, provide written assurance that the food safety requirements and management systems have been successfully documented and implemented and conform to requirements of the TQF Program.
- Compliance to the TQF Program requires food factories to be certified by a CB that is contracted by TQFA to conduct TQF Program audits and issue the TQF Program certificate. TQF Program CBs must be accredited to the current version of the international standard ISO 17065 and be subject to annual assessments of their certification activities by a TQFA appointed AB.
