Australia has multiple competing organic certifiers — NASAA is one of seven, not the dominant national mark (that's ACO).	OPAC (peer-review) certified products are valid in Brazil but typically not accepted for export — exporters need third-party (e.g. IBD).	Doesn't certify clinical effectiveness or skin tolerance.
