The Cambodia Accreditation Council (CAC) is Cambodia’s national accreditation body, responsible for accrediting organizations involved in testing, calibration, certification, and inspection services. Established to meet international standards of competence and reliability, CAC operates under the Ministry of Industry, Science, Technology, and Innovation. Its primary mission is to ensure that conformity assessment bodies in Cambodia meet rigorous international accreditation standards, thereby supporting the quality, safety, and efficiency of products and services across various industries.

CAC 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, CAC participates in mutual recognition arrangements that facilitate the global acceptance of test and calibration results, certifications, and inspection reports issued by accredited Cambodian bodies. These partnerships are essential for reducing technical barriers to trade and enhancing the global competitiveness of Cambodian products and services.

To maintain its leadership in accreditation, CAC 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, CAC supports regulatory compliance, consumer protection, and industrial innovation in Cambodia.
