Does BCH issue lot-specific documentation, or a batch certificate?

Asked 28 Apr 2025Modified 15 months agoViewed 29k times

I am comparing a supplier certificate against an independent result on the same lot.

I have read the primary source rather than the summary, which has left me with more questions.

I understand the headline. I do not understand the footnotes, and the footnotes look important.

What would I need in addition before this supported a decision?
