GSTC Certification is a three-year* valid certification that has been regarded as the most trusted benchmark for sustainability and excellence in the travel and tourism industry worldwide. With the GSTC certification, tourism businesses can demonstrate their commitment to sustainable tourism through a credible, impartial and rigorous assessment. *Note: In Türkiye Tourism Promotion and Development Agency (TGA) program, the certification is only valid for one year. The certification is an independent third party certification conducted by GSTC-accredited certification bodies (ACBs) to certify tourism businesses against the GSTC Standards. The GSTC establishes and maintains the GSTC Standards, the global framework for sustainable tourism. GSTC does not conduct certification; rather, it accredits Certification Bodies (CBs) that certify tourism businesses. |
