North America's leading 'no genetically modified organisms' certification. Tests for the presence of GMOs in finished products. NOT organic.	The UK's largest organic certifier. Standards are stricter than the UK government's baseline (which still mirrors EU 2018/848 post-Brexit). Recognised by the EU and USA under equivalence.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).

Does NOT	Mutual recognition with the US, EU, and Canada applies to specific product categories — check each agreement before importing.

USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.
