Accreditation Process (MLAP)
Outline of Accreditation Process
When applying MLAP accreditation, an applicant laboratory must submit an "application form" with some necessary documents to the head office or any of local offices of National Institute of Evaluation and Technology (Nite), and then pay (remit) the application fee prescribed by the cabinet order. After the application is formally accepted, an accreditation assessment is carried out. The assessment consists of document reviews and on-site assessments. Conformity to accreditation criteria is evaluated throughout the assessment. After the assessment, its result is notified to the applicant laboratory. The figure below indicates the outline of the accreditation process.
Note) You (the applicant) may also submit your application to the designated body when available.
