Please note that BAFE DS301 fees are included within the Certification Body fees, organisations do not pay any fees directly to BAFE for this Scheme.

On successful completion of the initial audit process the applicant organisation will be awarded Third-Party Certification to the scope of BAFE DS301 (of the required modules). At this stage, the Certification Body shall inform BAFE. BAFE DS301 Registration shall then be subsequently awarded with this evidence of competency available.

BAFE DS301 Registration will remain for organisations who continue to hold valid Third-Party Certification to the scope of BAFE DS301 and are compliant with the requirements of the Scheme.

Please note that BAFE Registration is not guaranteed. Please discuss any issues or concerns with your Certification Body prior to audit.
