8. Gaia-X Label format

In case of a valid verification and validation of the criteria for a specific assessment scheme, the accredited Gaia-X Compliance services are issuing a Gaia-X Label.

A Gaia-X Label is a machine readable, structured and signed document that comprises at a minimum the following information attributes:

  • Label ID, as unique identifier for the label being issued for a specific Service Offering.
  • Participant ID, as unique identifier for the Participant that is awarded the Label.
  • Participant Business ID, presenting the firm business ID of the Participant.
  • Service Offering for which the Label is applicable.
  • Conformity assessment scheme, as Gaia-X Standard Compliance, Gaia-X Label Level 1, Gaia-X Label Level 2 or Gaia-X Label Level 3.
  • Reference to the assessment scheme version that comprised the Gaia-X criteria for which the claims and evidences were prepared.
  • Compliance Service ID, as unique identifier for the Compliance Service that issued the Label.
  • Compliance Service version, as the software version that issued the Label.
  • Issuance date on which the Label was issued.
  • Validity start and end date on which the Label will expire.
