1. The auditor must provide a copy of their valid VDA 6.3:2023 Auditor accreditation.
  2. The auditor must provide evidence of having performed at least ten audits, totaling a minimum of 20 audit days, within the last five years in the role of lead auditor.
  3. It is likely that VDA QMC will establish an additional requirement for this procedure. Since the first VDA 6.3:2023 auditor renewals will not occur until 2028 (that is, five years after accreditation), this requirement has not yet been defined. If you obtained your accreditation through BIDEA, we will inform you by email as soon as this information becomes available.
  4. The auditor must complete a renewal application form that BIDEA will provide by email upon request (please contact us at info@grupobidea.com) and pay the administrative fee of €165.
