This standard is equivalent to ISO/IEC Guide 65:1996 "General Requirements for Product Certification Bodies". ISO/IEC Guide 65 was developed by ISO's Conformity Assessment Committee (CASCO) and issued in 1996. ISO evaluated the adaptability of the guide in 2000. Based on the results of the evaluation, ISO/IEC decided to continue to maintain the status quo of the guide standard. The international standards or guide documents listed in the "References" of ISO/IEC Guide 65:1996 are the latest versions of the "Normative References" of this standard. In order to facilitate use, this standard has made corresponding editorial modifications: the "introduction" of the normative references has been added, and ISO8402:1991 Quality Management and Quality Assurance - Terms has been replaced by IS09000:2000. The equivalent national standard is (B/T19000--2000 Quality Management System Fundamentals and Vocabulary" (idtIS0 9000:2000)\, IS10011-1:1990 Quality System Market Review Guide - Audit" has been replaced by IS019011.2002, and the equivalent national standard is GB/T19011-2003 & Quality and (or) Environmental Management System Audit Guide" (ISO19011,2002, IDT)\; -ISO/IEC Guide 25:1990 General Requirements for the Competence of Calibration and Testing Laboratories" has been replaced by ISO/IEC17025:1999, and the equivalent national standard is The standard is GB/T15481-2000 "General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories" (idt ISO/IEC17025:1999) ISO/IEC Guide 39.1988 General requirements for accreditation of inspection bodies has been replaced by ISO/IEC17020:1998.

GB/T 27065--2004/ISO/IEC Guide 65, 1996ISO/IEC Foreword
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) are specialized bodies set up for the purpose of worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of international standards through technical committees established by the organizations to carry out specific fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in areas of common interest. Other political and non-governmental international organizations, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in their work. Draft Guides adopted by the responsible committees or working groups are submitted to national bodies for a vote and are issued as Guides only if they are approved by at least 75% of the national bodies voting. ISO/IEC Guide 65 was prepared by the ISO Committee on Conformity Assessment (CASCO). This Guide supersedes ISO/IEC Guide 40:1983. GB/T 27065-2004/ISO/IEC Guide 65:1996 Introduction
Product (this term includes process or service) certification is a process of providing assurance that a product complies with specific standards and other normative documents. Some product certification systems may include initial testing of the product and review of the supplier's quality system, as well as subsequent surveillance of the factory's quality system and inspection of samples taken from the factory and the open market. Some product certification systems are based on initial inspection and surveillance testing, while others only include type testing. This standard specifies requirements, and compliance with these requirements is intended to ensure that certification bodies operate third-party certification systems in a reliable and consistent manner, making them easy to accept nationally or internationally, thereby promoting international trade. The requirements contained in this standard are the basic principles for organizations operating product certification systems. When used in specific industrial fields or other sectors, or when there are special requirements such as health and safety, additional requirements must be considered. Certification certificates or certification marks are often used to indicate that products comply with corresponding standards or other normative documents. In many cases, a system for certifying a particular product or product range to a particular standard or other normative document will require its own explanatory document.
This standard is about third-party product certification, and many of its clauses are also applicable to first- and second-party product conformity assessment procedures. The diversity of certification systems may seem unnecessary at first glance and may even confuse newcomers, customers and practitioners in the field. The ISO/IFC publication Certification and related activities can serve as background material to help answer questions encountered in practice in the field of conformity assessment worldwide.
1 Scope
GB/T 27065--2004/IS0/IEC Guide 65: 1996 General requirements for product certification bodies
1.1 This standard specifies general requirements that third-party bodies operating product certification systems should meet in order to obtain recognition of their competence and credibility.
