What every download includes
Templates refer to clause numbers and describe requirements in our own words. They do not reproduce the text of any ISO standard, so you need your own licensed copy. Templates support your system; they do not guarantee certification. Licence, updates and refunds in one place: purchase terms. Sold by ISO Cloud Consulting LLC.
Questions about Free ISO 9001:2026 Changes Summary
Is ISO 9001:2026 a major revision?
It keeps the clause 4 to 10 structure of the 2015 edition. The changes include quality culture and ethical behavior (5.1.1 and 7.3), risks and opportunities in separate sub-clauses (6.1.2 and 6.1.3), planning of changes (6.3), climate change in context (4.1) and 20 core terms in Clause 3.
Do I still need to buy the standard?
Yes. This summary explains the changes in our own words. It is not a substitute for the standard itself.
How will I receive the files?
A download button appears on the order confirmation page and the same link is emailed to you within a few minutes. Bundles arrive as one ZIP file.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. With our 30-day money-back guarantee, if the files do not fit your quality management system you can ask for a full refund within 30 days of your order. It applies once per customer and organization, covers the whole product, and requires you to confirm you have deleted the files. We also refund non-delivery, defective files, wrong items and duplicate purchases within 30 days. Read the full refund policy.
Can I see the files before I buy?
Yes. The images above show real pages from the files, and most kits have free sample pages you can download with your email address. You can also see a fully worked example of a procedure and its linked records.
Will I get updates?
Yes, for the edition of the standard this product covers. Corrections, amendments and guidance changes for that edition are sent to you free, by email, for as long as we sell the product. If the standard is replaced by a new edition, the new kit is a separate product and existing buyers get an upgrade discount. See the version history.
Can I use the templates with more than one company?
Each purchase is licensed to one organization (one legal entity). Consultants can use one product with up to 10 client organizations with the Consultant Multi-Client Licence, including applying their own or the client's branding. See consultant rights and the licence agreement.
