	Korea Organic South Korea · Tier 1 Gold	AB (Agriculture Biologique) France · Tier 2 Trusted	Ø Ø-mærket (Denmark) Denmark · Tier 1 Gold
What it means	South Korea's national organic mark under MAFRA (Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs). Required on any food sold as 유기농 in Korea.	France's national organic mark, owned by the Ministry of Agriculture. Sits alongside the EU Leaf on virtually all French organic packaging.	Denmark's national organic mark, owned by the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration. The red Ø is one of the most-trusted food labels in the world — recognised by ~98% of Danish consumers.
Scope	Food	Food	Food
Established	2001	1985	1989
Inspection	Annual on-site by MAFRA-accredited certifier	Annual on-site by French-accredited certifiers	Annual on-site by Danish Veterinary and Food Administration
Residue testing	Required	Risk-based	Required
Guarantees	≥95% organic ingredients. No synthetic pesticides, no GMOs. Annual on-site inspection by a MAFRA-accredited certifier.	EU baseline organic (EU 2018/848). Annual on-site inspection by accredited French certifiers (Ecocert, Bureau Veritas, Qualité-France).	EU baseline organic (EU 2018/848). Annual on-site inspection by the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration. Direct government control (not a private body) — the unusual Danish model that drives high consumer trust.
Does NOT	Cosmetics and textiles are covered under separate Korean schemes, not this mark.	Same standard as the EU Leaf — AB is the brand consumers recognise, not a stricter rule.	Outside Denmark, retailers usually rely on the EU Leaf rather than the Ø.
