Reach out to your local ASC representative, you’ll find their contact details here.

You can find more information about the different ASC farm certification options here.

As you begin your ASC journey, it is up to you to choose an independent Conformity Assessment Body (CAB). You can compare certifiers and contact them here.

Use the ASC Self-Assessment Tool to see where you already meet ASC requirements, and where there is still work to do – giving you a clear indication of how ready you are to start the certification process.

Our Improver Programme by ASC supports those working toward certification through an Aquaculture Improvement Project, whatever your starting point.

Explore certification routes for farms, feed mills and seafood supply chain businesses to find the one that applies to you – learn more about each of them here.

No. ASC does not conduct audits or make certification decisions. Audits and certification decisions are carried out by accredited, independent Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs).

It varies by operation, but an on-site audit typically takes around three days.

Your CAB will confirm its decision. Once your certificate is published in the ASC database, you’re officially ASC certified.
