Since 1997, the Association has been granting Certificates to Recommended Companies which have committed to follow the regulation:

• A Recommendation granted by the IAA is a way to support an IAA member company who promotes Baltic amber, in business and in community activities.
   
• The Recommendation confirms the company’s reliability, its compliance with the rules of the  IAA Charter, the instructions of the Expert Commission, the CLASSIFICATION OF AMBER GEMSTONES and trade ethics, as well as the company’s growth and achievements, as documented by the projects it has completed and by the awards and certificates it has received.
   
• The Recommendation is related to an obligation of the company’s owner, as an IAA member,  to use only Baltic amber and not use any amber substitutes, synthetic or sub-fossil resins  (copal) in the marketed products, which may be combined at once with other jeweller’s  materials.
   
• The most important purpose of the Recommendation is for the company which uses the IAA  recommendation mark to build consumer confidence and promote Baltic amber.
   
• Certificates for Recommended company are available in Polish, English, German, Chinese and Arabic language versions.
