Frequently Asked Questions - Organic Certification Consultant in Edmonton

What is required to sell products as certified organic in Canada?

To use the Canada Organic logo or the claim 'certified organic' on products sold interprovincially or for export, your operation must be certified under the Canada Organic Regime (COR) by an accredited certification body. This applies to farms, processors, handlers, and importers.

What is the organic transition period?

For cropland, a 36-month transition period is required before the land can be certified organic. During this time, all prohibited substances must be absent. Processing facilities do not have a formal transition period but must pass a full certification audit.

What documentation does organic certification require?

You must maintain an Organic System Plan (OSP) or Operator Description Form, records of all inputs used, sales and purchase records for organic products, audit trail documentation showing product identity from field to sale, and pest/weed management records.

Does Iyarkai assist with both Canadian and US organic certification?

Yes. We are familiar with both the Canada Organic Regime (COR/CAN/CGSB-32.310) and USDA National Organic Program (NOP). We also assist with equivalency arrangements for bilateral trade of organic products between Canada and the USA.
