What self-employed persons should consider

You have downloaded our certification application form. Are you self-employed? Then you need to consider a few points.

You can prove the experience time by submitting a list of your clients. The template for a possible customer reference list can be found here. Please enter at least one company with its name, address, contact person and the date or duration of the activity.

If you

- have a valid certificate according to DIN EN ISO 9712 from SECTOR Cert,
- have worked with pressure equipment for at least 60 working days within 12 months,
- have gained this experience over the last 5 years,

then you can have this experience confirmed by a pressure equipment manufacturer or operator or a notified body under point 8 of the application.

When proving sufficient visual acuity, you cannot confirm the date of the last vision test yourself, but only an ophthalmologist or optician. Please attach a copy of your current certificate of visual acuity to your certification application. For reasons of data protection, this will be destroyed immediately after verification.

If you are planning a recertification, you can also submit proof of continued practical ability like employees. The template document can be found here.
