For 25 years, we have worked to make vegan living simpler and more accessible through our Certified Vegan Logo. What started as a way to help shoppers identify products they could trust has grown into one of the most widely recognized vegan certifications in the world.

If you have ever wondered how our certification works, here is a closer look at the process, requirements, and what it means to join the Vegan Action Certified Vegan community.

Our Certification Process

We know the list of requirements on our website can look intimidating at first, but the truth is that most brands already have the documents we need. When it comes to selling products, every ingredient typically has a spec sheet or supplier verification attached.

Here is what the certification process looks like from start to finish:

  1. Gather all relevant documents and information about your ingredients and products.
  2. Submit your online application through our website.
  3. Our team reviews everything and communicates with you directly throughout the process.
  4. Once your product is approved, we will send over the licensing agreement.
  5. After signing, you can proudly add the Certified Vegan Logo to your packaging.

Once that logo is on your product, customers will instantly recognize it and know they can trust your brand. The symbol helps shoppers discover your products with confidence and ease.
