ISO Full Form

What is the Full form of ISO?

The full form of ISO is the International Organization for Standardization. It is an international standard-setting body composed of representatives from various national standards organizations. The ISO makes standards and guidelines for a variety of businesses and purposes and publishes technical reports. It was founded on 23 February 1947 and the organization promotes worldwide proprietary, industrial and commercial standards.

It operates in 162 countries and is headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. The name ISO is not an acronym but comes from the Greek term isos implying equal, which means that if two things reach the same norm, they must be equally represented.

History of ISO
