Gaining your ISO 42001 Certification

Gaining certification

External audit stage 1: Review of AIMS documentation External audit stage 2: Certification audit for AI systems Addressing non-conformities Running a surveillance audit ISO 42001 recertification

Gaining ISO/IEC 42001 certification is a structured, multi-stage process that assesses both the design and the real-world operation of your AI Management System (AIMS). The certification journey assesses how effectively your organization manages AI risks, embeds accountability, and consistently applies controls throughout the AI lifecycle. Certification is not a one-time event. It begins with formal audits of your documentation and AI systems, continues through remediation of any non-conformities, and is maintained through ongoing surveillance and periodic recertification. Each stage builds on the previous one, with auditors expecting increasing levels of evidence, operational maturity, and continuous improvement.
