# §1.636. How do I request reinstatement of recognition?

- (a) **Application following revocation.** An accreditation body that has had its recognition revoked may seek reinstatement by submitting a new application for recognition under [§ 1.630](/cfr/21/1.630.md). The accreditation body must submit evidence that the grounds for revocation have been resolved, including evidence addressing the cause or conditions that were the basis for revocation and identifying measures that have been implemented to help ensure that such cause(s) or condition(s) are unlikely to recur.
- (b) **Application following relinquishment.** An accreditation body that previously relinquished its recognition under [§ 1.635](/cfr/21/1.635.md) may seek recognition by submitting a new application for recognition under [§ 1.630](/cfr/21/1.630.md).
