What Auditors Look For

Domestic legal operation, documented to hold up.

DTAM-GACP is the legal requirement to operate domestically — distinct from CUMCS G.A.P., the credential export buyers actually ask for. Most serious operators end up needing both, which is exactly what BioCompliance's dual-standard methodology is built around.

Licence Alignment

SOPs that match what the facility is actually licensed to do — not a generic template that doesn't reflect the specific licence conditions.

Bilingual Documentation

Records a domestic inspector and an international export buyer can both read and rely on.

Domestic Traceability

Seed-to-sale records that satisfy Thai reporting requirements on their own terms, not retrofitted from an export-facing system.

Regulatory Currency

Thailand's reclassification moves are ongoing — see Regulatory Intelligence for how BioCompliance tracks them between audits.
