What it means	Germany's national organic mark, owned by the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture. Sits alongside the EU Leaf on most German organic packaging since 2001. Same standard as the EU Leaf — Bio-Siegel is the brand consumers recognise.	South America's largest organic certifier. IBD certifies under Brazilian, USDA NOP, EU, and JAS standards — a single-stop certifier widely used across Latin America.	The federal Canadian organic standard, mandatory on any agricultural product sold across provincial borders or imported as 'organic'.	Japan's national organic standard under the Japanese Agricultural Standard system. The mark must appear on any food sold as 'organic' (有機 or オーガニック) in Japan.
Scope	Food	Several categories	Food	Food
Established	2001	1990	2009	2001
Inspection	Annual on-site by EU-accredited German control body	Annual on-site, IFOAM- and ISO 17065-accredited	Annual on-site by CFIA-accredited certifier	Annual on-site by MAFF-registered certifier
Residue testing	Risk-based	Required	Risk-based, conducted by accredited certifiers	Required for high-risk operations
Guarantees	EU baseline organic (EU 2018/848). Annual on-site inspection by accredited German certifier.	Multiple-standard certification: Brazilian (SisOrg), USDA NOP, EU, JAS, Demeter. Annual on-site inspection.	≥95% organic ingredients (single-ingredient products: 100%). No synthetic pesticides, no GMOs, no irradiation. Annual third-party certification under the Canada Organic Regime.	≥95% organic ingredients. No synthetic pesticides, no synthetic fertilizers, no GMOs. Annual inspection by a MAFF-registered certifier.
Does NOT	Same standard as the EU Leaf — not stricter.	A single product may carry IBD plus a country-specific organic mark — IBD itself isn't the regulatory mark in any of those markets, just the accredited certifier.	Provincial sales-only operations are not legally required to carry it (though many do voluntarily).	Mutual recognition with the US, EU, and Canada applies to specific product categories — check each agreement before importing.
