What it means	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.	South Korea's national organic mark under MAFRA (Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs). Required on any food sold as 유기농 in Korea.	New Zealand's largest organic certifier. Recognised by the EU, US, and Japan under their respective import-equivalence regimes.	The international umbrella body for the organic movement. Not a product label — IFOAM accredits other certifiers worldwide via the IFOAM Family of Standards. If a cert is 'IFOAM-accredited' it has been benchmarked to a globally consistent baseline.

Guarantees	Stricter-than-baseline organic standards across food, textiles, cosmetics, and farming. Annual on-site inspection.

Annual on-site inspection by a MAFRA-accredited certifier.	≥95% organic ingredients. No synthetic pesticides, no GMOs. Annual on-site inspection. Covers food, textiles, and personal care under separate standards.	Accredited certifiers meet the IFOAM Norms and the IFOAM Family of Standards. Independent peer review of certifier governance, inspection rigor, and conflict-of-interest controls.
Does NOT	Logo is trademarked — not a free-licence mark.	Cosmetics and textiles are covered under separate Korean schemes, not this mark.	New Zealand has no single legally-mandated 'organic' definition — voluntary certification is the norm.	Does NOT certify products directly — only certifiers. Look for the underlying national / private mark on the package.
