Those in the process of certifying to R2:2013: After R2v3 is released, facilities in the process of certifying to R2:2013 will have six months to finish the registration audit and become certified to the old standard. After that, no R2:2013 registration audits can be conducted, according to SERI.
Transitioning to R2v3: For facilities that are currently certified to R2:2013, if their certificate expires within one year after the release of R2v3, they'll be able to recertify to R2:2013; however, the new expiration date can't be after Dec. 31, 2022. For facilities whose R2:2013 certificates expire after the 12-month period following the release of R2v3, they'll need to certify to the new standard.
