What it means	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'.	North America's leading 'no genetically modified organisms' certification. Tests for the presence of GMOs in finished products. NOT 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.

Residue testing	Required	Risk-based, conducted by accredited certifiers	GMO testing only (not pesticide)	Required for high-risk operations
Guarantees	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.	Verified absence of GMO ingredients (with action thresholds, not zero tolerance). Annual third-party verification. Tracing and segregation across the supply chain.	≥95% organic ingredients. No synthetic pesticides, no synthetic fertilizers, no GMOs. Annual inspection by a MAFF-registered certifier.
Does NOT	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).	Doesn't mean organic — Non-GMO products can use synthetic pesticides and fertilizers freely.	Mutual recognition with the US, EU, and Canada applies to specific product categories — check each agreement before importing.
