Introduction

ISO/IEC 17065 [1] is an international standard which specifies general requirements for Conformity Assessment

Bodies (CABs) performing certification of products, processes, or services. These requirements are not focussed on any

specific application domain where CABs work.

In the present document the general requirements are supplemented to provide additional dedicated requirements for

CABs performing certification of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they provide towards defined

criteria against which they claim conformance.

The present document is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and

confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, applicable requirements from Regulation (EU)

No 910/2014 [i.1], and from CA Browser Forum [i.10].

The present document's aims include support of national accreditation bodies as specified in Regulation (EC)

No 765/2008 [i.4] in applying ISO/IEC 17065 [1] for the accreditation of CABs that certify TSPs and the trust services

they provide so that this is carried out in a consistent manner. In accordance with [i.4], attestations issued by conformity

assessment bodies accredited by a national accreditation body can be formally recognized across Europe.

The present document does not repeat requirements from ISO/IEC 17065 [1] but follows its document structure. Where

needed, additional requirements are specified. This is mainly the case for requirements on resources (clause 6) and on

the assessment process (clause 7). For all other chapters of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] few or no additional requirements are

needed.

The present document also incorporates many requirements relating to the audit of a TSP's management system, as

defined in ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12] and in ISO/IEC 27006 [i.11]. These requirements are incorporated by including text to

derived from these documents in the present document, as well indirectly through references to requirements of

ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12].

1 Scope

The present document contains requirements for the competence, consistent operation and impartiality of conformity

assessment bodies assessing and certifying the conformity of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they

provide towards defined criteria against which they claim conformance.

NOTE 1: Those requirements are independent of the type and class of trust service provided.

The present document also contains requirements for the conformity assessment of trust services component services,

which later forms part of a separate conformity assessment of a TSP.

NOTE 2: This enables a provider of such component services, which are used as part of the service provided by

several TSPs, to avoid having to be assessed several times, or even for a TSP to provide a service based

just on a component service or collection of components whether or not they are recognized as a trust

service under Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].

The present document applies the general requirements of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] to the specific requirements of

conformity assessment of TSPs.
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part deliverable. Other parts include:

• ETSI TS 119 403-2 [i.14]: "Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 2: Additional requirements for Conformity Assessment Bodies auditing Trust Service

Providers that issue Publicly-Trusted Certificates".

• ETSI TS 119 403-3 [i.15]: "Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 3: Additional requirements for conformity assessment bodies assessing EU qualified trust

service providers".

Introduction

ISO/IEC 17065 [1] is an international standard which specifies general requirements for Conformity Assessment

Bodies (CABs) performing certification of products, processes, or services. These requirements are not focussed on any

specific application domain where CABs work.

In the present document the general requirements are supplemented to provide additional dedicated requirements for

CABs performing certification of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they provide towards defined

criteria against which they claim conformance.

The present document is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and

confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, applicable requirements from Regulation (EU)

No 910/2014 [i.1], and from CA Browser Forum [i.10].

The present document's aims include support of national accreditation bodies as specified in Regulation (EC)

No 765/2008 [i.4] in applying ISO/IEC 17065 [1] for the accreditation of CABs that certify TSPs and the trust services

they provide so that this is carried out in a consistent manner. In accordance with [i.4], attestations issued by conformity

assessment bodies accredited by a national accreditation body can be formally recognized across Europe.

The present document does not repeat requirements from ISO/IEC 17065 [1] but follows its document structure. Where

needed, additional requirements are specified. This is mainly the case for requirements on resources (clause 6) and on

the assessment process (clause 7). For all other chapters of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] few or no additional requirements are

needed.

The present document also incorporates many requirements relating to the audit of a TSP's management system, as

defined in ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12] and in ISO/IEC 27006 [i.11]. These requirements are incorporated by including text to

derived from these documents in the present document, as well indirectly through references to requirements of

ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12].

1 Scope

The present document contains requirements for the competence, consistent operation and impartiality of conformity

assessment bodies assessing and certifying the conformity of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they

provide towards defined criteria against which they claim conformance.

NOTE 1: Those requirements are independent of the type and class of trust service provided.

The present document also contains requirements for the conformity assessment of trust services component services,

which later forms part of a separate conformity assessment of a TSP.

NOTE 2: This enables a provider of such component services, which are used as part of the service provided by

several TSPs, to avoid having to be assessed several times, or even for a TSP to provide a service based

just on a component service or collection of components whether or not they are recognized as a trust

service under Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].

The present document applies the general requirements of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] to the specific requirements of

conformity assessment of TSPs.
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part deliverable. Other parts include:

• ETSI TS 119 403-2 [i.14]: "Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 2: Additional requirements for Conformity Assessment Bodies auditing Trust Service

Providers that issue Publicly-Trusted Certificates".

• ETSI TS 119 403-3 [i.15]: "Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 3: Additional requirements for conformity assessment bodies assessing EU qualified trust

service providers".

Introduction

ISO/IEC 17065 [1] is an international standard which specifies general requirements for Conformity Assessment

Bodies (CABs) performing certification of products, processes, or services. These requirements are not focussed on any

specific application domain where CABs work.

In the present document the general requirements are supplemented to provide additional dedicated requirements for

CABs performing certification of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they provide towards defined

criteria against which they claim conformance.

The present document is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and

confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, applicable requirements from Regulation (EU)

No 910/2014 [i.1], and from CA Browser Forum [i.10].

The present document's aims include support of national accreditation bodies as specified in Regulation (EC)

No 765/2008 [i.4] in applying ISO/IEC 17065 [1] for the accreditation of CABs that certify TSPs and the trust services

they provide so that this is carried out in a consistent manner. In accordance with [i.4], attestations issued by conformity

assessment bodies accredited by a national accreditation body can be formally recognized across Europe.

The present document does not repeat requirements from ISO/IEC 17065 [1] but follows its document structure. Where

needed, additional requirements are specified. This is mainly the case for requirements on resources (clause 6) and on

the assessment process (clause 7). For all other chapters of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] few or no additional requirements are

needed.

The present document also incorporates many requirements relating to the audit of a TSP's management system, as

defined in ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12] and in ISO/IEC 27006 [i.11]. These requirements are incorporated by including text to

derived from these documents in the present document, as well indirectly through references to requirements of

ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12].

1 Scope

The present document contains requirements for the competence, consistent operation and impartiality of conformity

assessment bodies assessing and certifying the conformity of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they

provide towards defined criteria against which they claim conformance.

NOTE 1: Those requirements are independent of the type and class of trust service provided.

The present document also contains requirements for the conformity assessment of trust services component services,

which later forms part of a separate conformity assessment of a TSP.

NOTE 2: This enables a provider of such component services, which are used as part of the service provided by

several TSPs, to avoid having to be assessed several times, or even for a TSP to provide a service based

just on a component service or collection of components whether or not they are recognized as a trust

service under Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].

The present document applies the general requirements of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] to the specific requirements of

conformity assessment of TSPs.
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part deliverable. Other parts include:

• ETSI TS 119 403-2 [i.14]: "Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 2: Additional requirements for Conformity Assessment Bodies auditing Trust Service

Providers that issue Publicly-Trusted Certificates".

• ETSI TS 119 403-3 [i.15]: "Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 3: Additional requirements for conformity assessment bodies assessing EU qualified trust

service providers".

Introduction

ISO/IEC 17065 [1] is an international standard which specifies general requirements for Conformity Assessment

Bodies (CABs) performing certification of products, processes, or services. These requirements are not focussed on any

specific application domain where CABs work.

In the present document the general requirements are supplemented to provide additional dedicated requirements for

CABs performing certification of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they provide towards defined

criteria against which they claim conformance.
ETSI
---------------------- Page: 5 ----------------------
6 Draft ETSI EN 319 403-1 V2.3.0 (2019-11)

The present document is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and

confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, applicable requirements from Regulation (EU)

No 910/2014 [i.1], and from CA Browser Forum [i.10].

The present document's aims include support of national accreditation bodies as specified in Regulation (EC)

No. 765/2008 [i.4] in applying ISO/IEC 17065 [1] for the accreditation of CABs that certify TSPs and the trust services

they provide so that this is carried out in a consistent manner. In accordance with [i.4], attestations issued by conformity

assessment bodies accredited by a national accreditation body can be formally recognized across Europe.

The present document does not repeat requirements from ISO/IEC 17065 [1] but follows its document structure. Where

needed, additional requirements are specified. This is mainly the case for requirements on resources (clause 6) and on

the assessment process (clause 7). For all other chapters of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] few or no additional requirements are

needed.

The present document also incorporates many requirements relating to the audit of a TSP's management system, as

defined in ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12] and in ISO/IEC 27006 [i.11]. These requirements are incorporated by including text to

derived from these documents in the present document, as well indirectly through references to requirements of

ISO/IEC 17021 [i.12].

1 Scope

The present document contains requirements for the competence, consistent operation and impartiality of conformity

assessment bodies assessing and certifying the conformity of Trust Service Providers (TSPs) and the trust services they

provide towards defined criteria against which they claim conformance.

NOTE 1: Those requirements are independent of the type and class of trust service provided.

The present document also contains requirements for the conformity assessment of trust services component services,

which later forms part of a separate conformity assessment of a TSP.

NOTE 2: This enables a provider of such component services, which are used as part of the service provided by

several TSPs, to avoid having to be assessed several times, or even for a TSP to provide a service based

just on a component service or collection of components whether or not they are recognized as a trust

service under Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 [i.1].

The present document applies the general requirements of ISO/IEC 17065 [1] to the specific requirements of

conformity assessment of TSPs.
The present document is part 1 of a multipart standard. Other parts include:

• ETSI TS 119 403-2 [i.14]: Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 2: Additional requirements for Conformity Assessment Bodies auditing Trust Service

Providers that issue Publicly-Trusted Certificates.

• ETSI TS 119 403-3 [i.15]: Electronic Signatures and Infrastructures (ESI); Trust Service Provider Conformity

Assessment; Part 3: Additional requirements for conformity assessment bodies assessing EU qualified trust

service providers.
