Frequently asked questions

Does AGY Strategic issue the certificate?

No. AGY Strategic provides consultancy; certification, approval and audit decisions are made by the relevant authorised bodies. We prepare your business and manage the process with you.

Which businesses does the Blue Certificate concern?

It concerns businesses within the scope of the Water Efficiency Regulation, accommodation facilities in particular. We can assess together whether your business is in scope.

Is Green Key the same as the Sustainable Tourism Certificate?

No, they are separate programmes. Green Key is an international eco-label; the Sustainable Tourism Certificate belongs to the national programme based on the GSTC criteria. We support preparation for both.
