Applications must be made on the Application to Vary an Accreditation form. One form can include more than one request for a variation.

WEA is required to consult with an applicant prior to making the decision to approve or reject the application for variation. If more than one variation was requested on the application form, WEA will treat each request separately and make an individual decision on each request.
WEA will advise the applicant in writing of its decision within 14 days of making it. If WEA decides to refuse the variation, it will also advise of its reasons for the rejection.
WEA may also issue a new instrument of accreditation to an exporter if it deems it necessary to do so.
