Accreditation Body of Serbia (ATS)
The Accreditation Body of Serbia (ATS) is Serbia's national accreditation body, responsible for accrediting organizations involved in testing, calibration, certification, and inspection services. Established in 1998, ATS operates under the Ministry of Economy and Regional Development. Its primary mission is to ensure that conformity assessment bodies in Serbia meet international standards of competence and reliability, thereby supporting the quality, safety, and efficiency of products and services across various industries.
ATS collaborates with both national and international organizations to uphold high standards of accreditation. It is a full member of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) and the International Accreditation Forum (IAF). Through these memberships, ATS participates in mutual recognition arrangements that facilitate the global acceptance of test and calibration results, certifications, and inspection reports issued by accredited Serbian bodies. These international partnerships help reduce technical barriers to trade and enhance the global competitiveness of Serbian products and services.
To maintain its leadership in accreditation, ATS continuously updates its accreditation criteria and processes to align with international best practices. It provides essential services, including the accreditation of laboratories, certification bodies, and inspection agencies. By ensuring the quality and reliability of these services, ATS supports regulatory compliance, consumer protection, and industrial innovation in Serbia.
