ISO 22301 certification (also known as “registration”) is a third-party audit performed by a certification body such as PECB who, upon verification that an organization is in compliance with the requirements of ISO 22301, will issue an ISO 22301 certificate. This certification is then maintained through regularly scheduled annual surveillance audits by the registrar, with re-certification of the Business Continuity Management System performed on a tri-annual basis.
