What are the ISCC EU gap audit procedures? How do I use them?

The ISCC EU gap audit procedures support the implementation of the new requirements in the updated ISCC EU System Documents by providing an overview on all newly added questions.

The gap audit procedures must be used for all ISCC EU audits as of 5 January 2024 until 24 March 2024. These gap audit procedures must be used in addition to the audit procedures dated September 2023.

Please note that ISCC has released an update of the ISCC EU and PLUS audit procedures (dated March 2024). The new audit procedures must be used after 25 March 2024. Earlier adoption is highly encouraged. Notably, the update includes the content of the ISCC EU gap audit procedures and an adaptation of the questionnaire for ISCC PLUS Final Product Refinement (FPR) group certification audits. Any new additions and adjustments are marked as such.

Please find all audit procedures here on the ISCC website.
