Quality management systems; Requirements - German draft translation of ISO/FDIS 9001:2026 with English original version

The new edition of DIN EN ISO 9001 is announced for the end of 2026 and is expected to be published shortly after the international version ISO 9001, which is scheduled for release in September 2026. With the present manuscript, professionals receive the final draft ISO/FDIS 9001 and can prepare for the upcoming changes to the standard. The document is included in this publication in two versions: the English original and the German working translation by DIN.

Although this manuscript does not have the status of a standard or a draft standard, it already provides well-founded information on the expected innovations. Training institutes, quality management professionals, and other affected target groups are thus given the opportunity to align their working methods and requirements with the new version of the standard.

The manuscript on requirements for quality management systems in accordance with ISO/FDIS 9001:2026 includes:

• Explanatory text
• German translation of ISO/FDIS 9001
• ISO/FDIS 9001 in English

This official final draft is available exclusively from DIN Media.
