A controlled public library for standards, downloadable documents, and certification reference material.
This library groups the public standards and procedure documents that currently support AAPA certification and readiness work.
Before using a document for a live certification decision, applicants should confirm the applicable scheme version, scope, and any scheme-owner updates with AAPA.
PEFC standards are grouped separately from AAPA procedure documents so visitors can distinguish scheme requirements from AAPA operating information.
Future forms, application checklists, and client templates can be added here without changing the site structure.
Open the current public file, then confirm applicability with AAPA for your certification scope.
Chain of custody requirements for forest and tree-based products.
Sustainable forest management requirements used as a certification reference.
Group forest management certification requirements and governance expectations.
Requirements for certification bodies operating PEFC chain of custody certification.
