**Summary:**
This notification, G.S.R. 946(E), issued by the Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) on December 6, 2019, designates Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth as the accrediting agency for Ayurveda professional courses offered internationally. This decision comes in response to the growing global demand for Ayurveda practices and the lack of regulatory oversight for Ayurveda education and practice in many countries. The aim is to ensure the quality of Ayurveda education and services, particularly for therapists, pharmacists, and other support staff not covered under the 1MCC Act, 1970. Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth will develop accreditation standards for various Ayurveda courses and professionals, and will establish an Executive Board comprising experts and administrators to oversee accreditation activities. Accreditation will be provided in a transparent manner, initially focusing on countries where Ayurveda is recognized, popular, and in demand. The notification was issued under F. No. L-20020/19/2013-IC and signed by P. N. Ranjeet Kumar, Joint Secretary.
