How the application works

Seven guided steps from registration to submission.

Verify Your Email

Securely start a new application or return to one you've saved.

Applicant Identity

Confirm the applicant and registered organization details linked to the verified email.

Identify Your Organization

Provide your International Business Identifier (IBID), or enter your legal company details for ECCMA verification.

SmartPrefix and Item Part Number

Confirm the SmartPrefix and create the Item Part Number as an international part number.

Product / Service Specification

Create your item specification as a machine-readable, AI-ready specification.

Facility Location

Identify the item's manufactured-at or distributed-from location using the required facility identifiers.

Review and Submit

Check your details, enter your complimentary registration code if you have one, and submit for ECCMA assessment and a certification decision.

What you'll need

A business email, your IBID or legal entity registration details, one facility location, and one product or service with its item number and product description or technical specification. If any data is missing, the application helps you add it.

For your Type 1 application, please use only data that is already publicly available. Examples are your company's registered details, a facility address that is already public, and a product or service from your public catalog or website. Type 1 Certification checks the format of your data, not what it contains, so public data is enough to show that your company knows how to format its supply chain data to ISO 25500.

How to use your Type 1 Certification

Your ISO 25500 Type 1 conformance Certificate is an important asset in your supply chain data governance resources.

Next steps:

ECCMA-certified Type 1 ISO 25500 conformance gives buyers independent evidence that your company is able to provide unambiguous and authoritative data they can understand and trust.

You should ensure that your company’s supply chain is formatted to conform to ISO 25500, the international standard for supply chain interoperability and integration. The Supply Chain Interoperable Format (SCIF) file generated by your Type 1 submission provides a model for how to format your data.

If you have not already done so, we recommend you access the ISO 25500 standard or ask a third-party provider to help you align your data to ISO 25500 requirements.

We recommend you make your Type 1 Certification accessible for verification and announce your certification to customers, suppliers and internal stakeholders.
