What it means	The federal Canadian organic standard, mandatory on any agricultural product sold across provincial borders or imported as 'organic'.	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.	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.	The European Commission's voluntary environmental label. Covers cleaning products, paper, textiles, electronics, accommodation services. NOT an organic mark.
Scope	Food	Several categories	Food	Several categories
Established	2009	1990	2001	1992
Inspection	Annual on-site by CFIA-accredited certifier	Annual on-site, IFOAM- and ISO 17065-accredited	Annual on-site by EU-accredited German control body	Annual audit by national Ecolabel competent body
Residue testing	Risk-based, conducted by accredited certifiers	Required	Risk-based	Per-category limits
Guarantees	≥95% organic ingredients (single-ingredient products: 100%). No synthetic pesticides, no GMOs, no irradiation. Annual third-party certification under the Canada Organic Regime.	Multiple-standard certification: Brazilian (SisOrg), USDA NOP, EU, JAS, Demeter. Annual on-site inspection.	EU baseline organic (EU 2018/848). Annual on-site inspection by accredited German certifier.	Lifecycle-based environmental criteria per product category. Restrictions on hazardous chemicals. Annual licence renewal with audit.
Does NOT	Provincial sales-only operations are not legally required to carry it (though many do voluntarily).	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.	Same standard as the EU Leaf — not stricter.	Doesn't apply to food. Doesn't mean organic.
