Transition checks use the UKAS transition dates and your own audit dates to suggest when to transition.
It is a self-assessment based on your answers. It cannot tell you whether you will pass an audit, and we will not pretend it can.

ISO 14001:2026 was published on 15 April 2026. The UKAS transition deadline is 30 April 2029, and certification bodies stop issuing new certificates to the 2015 edition after 31 October 2027.

Every question is reviewed by Jason Misters, an IRCA Registered Principal Auditor and the founder of PICMS. The questions paraphrase what auditors look for. They do not reproduce the text of the standards, which you should buy from ISO or BSI.
