ACMA Membership
ACMA Membership is free. Membership gives access to our online program which leads members to obtain certificates for U.S. made products based upon their credentials. For this purpose, ACMA has developed a self-help program which allows companies to create their own certificates for export. The program focuses on the most requested export certificates:
- Certificate of Free Sale (CFS)
- Good Manufacturing Certificate (GMP)
- Bovine Free Certificate (BSE)
- Transmissible Free Certificate (TSE)
All ACMA certificates are issued and apostilled or authenticated based upon the destination country. The price to obtain a certificate with an Apostille for any Hague convention participating country is $150.00.The price is slightly higher for certificates destined for non participating countries.

ACMA strives to keep costs as low as possible for our members. For this reason, ACMA never charges a fee for membership in the association. Members pay only for the documents that they request.
