What it means	Vottunarstofan Tún is Iceland's only accredited organic certifier. Accredited by MAST (Matvælastofnun) under the EU 2018/848-equivalent Icelandic standard, so a Tún-certified product is also recognised as EU-organic.	The European Commission's voluntary environmental label. Covers cleaning products, paper, textiles, electronics, accommodation services. NOT an organic mark.	South Korea's national organic mark under MAFRA (Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs). Required on any food sold as 유기농 in Korea.
Scope	Food	Several categories	Food
Established	1994	1992	2001
Inspection	Annual on-site, MAST-accredited	Annual audit by national Ecolabel competent body	Annual on-site by MAFRA-accredited certifier

Does NOT	There aren't many Tún-certified operations (~120–160) — coverage in the Icelandic market is narrower than in the EU mainland.	Doesn't apply to food. Doesn't mean organic.	Cosmetics and textiles are covered under separate Korean schemes, not this mark.
