Standard ISO 9001 refers to the field of voluntary certification. The International Organization for Standardization, for its part, does not make recommendations in this matter, as it distances itself from certification - combining the functions of standardization and certification sins against objectivity, and ISO is the world's largest developer of standards.

In the certificate of compliance with ISO 9001, the following data is often recorded: the type of certification; the name, registration data and the direction of activity of the certified company; name and registration data of the certification body that conducted the certification audit; the date of drawing up the conclusion of the expert commission, which made the decision to issue a certificate; date of registration of the certificate and its validity. The appearance of the certificate depends on the form adopted by the certification body. We note that the Center for Certification and Licensing "Uniform Standard" is guided in the development of its form and its form for the certificate of compliance in the GOST R certification system. So, in Russia, the certification according to ISO 9001 is voluntary. True, in many industries or regions from time to time come out sectoral or territorial decisions. Their meaning boils down to the fact that it is necessary to certify an enterprise according to ISO 9001, if it is going to engage in a certain type of activity defined in the resolution. In a number of areas, for example, in some construction activities, the activities of arbitration managers have laws requiring membership in SROs, and the SRO by law has the right to require its members to have a certified quality management system. Legal requirements of the organizers of tenders are also legal, including government procurement for the ISO 9001 certificate, as a condition for participation in the tender. These and a number of other circumstances that actually exist in the Russian market make certification in accordance with ISO 9001 necessary.
