Every year we perform a survey of certifications to our management system standards. The survey shows the number of valid certificates to ISO management standards (such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001) reported for each country, each year.
Lowe's Survey 2019 Results
ISO does not perform certification. Organizations looking to get certified to an ISO standard must contact an independent certification body. The ISO Survey counts the number of certificates issued by certification bodies that have been accredited by members of the International Accreditation Forum (IAF).
The results of the 2019 Triennial Survey are summarised in commentaries about foreign exchange turnover and interest rate turnover. Detailed analyses will be published in the December 2019 issue of the BIS Quarterly Review.

The latest results of the Survey are for 2019 which show an estimation of the number of valid certificates as of 31 December 2019. The scope of the 2019 Survey remain unchanged from the previous edition with a total of 12 ISO management system standards included.
The ISO Survey results contain three sets of data:

- the number of sites covered by the certificates for each country for 12 ISO management system standards,
- the number of sectors per country covered by the certificates for 10 ISO management system standards (ISO 22000 and ISO 13485 do not contain data on sectors).
