To start the vegan certification process, it is sufficient to first apply for the product of the relevant company. After the application process is evaluated by our experts, we request some details to be communicated to us. Thus, the process begins.
The producer, who requests a Vegan certificate for his product or products, is asked to answer some necessary questions about their ingredients, production processes, animal testing, shared machines and the chance of cross contamination.
The vegan certification process continues with you sharing a detailed list of the products and components you want certified, as well as the production facility, production process, cleaning protocols and any equipment or production line.
After collecting the first documents for vegan certification, our experts take samples for the product and perform all the necessary tests in an impartial, independent and reliable manner.
Depending on the complexity of the manufacturing process, an inspector may be appointed to perform a physical inspection of the facility. Once the facility, products, and ingredients are approved for V-Mark vegan certification, you will receive a contract and invoice.
If our institution does not have a sufficient opinion, it requests a 1-day process audit to the customer, which is a customer, and if it finds sufficient, a direct certification approval is given.
The given approval is re-evaluated with the commission and the certification phase is started if it deems appropriate.
All these processes are usually completed in 1-2 weeks. After all stages are completed, you will be sent V-Mark vegan certificate for your product image and V-Mark logos to integrate with your products.
