No, AFNOR authorizes a reproduction of the standard only for the natural person who purchased it, for its own use and for a non-commercial purpose.
It is strictly prohibited to send the purchased standard by electronic message for distribution to third parties (suppliers, subcontractors, customers, colleagues, etc.).
Whatever the function used “Attachments”, “Reply to a message” (Reply) or “Forward a message” (Forward), there is an infringement of AFNOR's exclusive reproduction right.
Purchasing standards in the form of PDF files allows you to download and store a copy on your personal computing device. No other reproduction or publication on the Internet of the entire standard or part of it is authorized by AFNOR.
• For internal and personal use, AFNOR authorizes the use of an extract from the standard provided that the name of the author and the source are clearly indicated.
• For commercial use: the copying of extracts of standards is authorized by AFNOR for commercial use in return for the payment of a royalty based on copyright.
AFNOR, in its capacity as author, has the exclusive right to exploit the standards in any form whatsoever (Article L. 123-1 of the Intellectual Property Code).

AFNOR authorizes a reproduction of the standard only for the natural person who bought it, for its own use and for a non-commercial purpose.
It is therefore strictly forbidden to photocopy or print the standard purchased for distribution to third parties (suppliers, subcontractors, customers, colleagues, etc.).
Any infringement: reproduction, disclosure, dissemination or any act of use of a standard and / or a normative document not authorized by AFNOR constitutes an infringement. Copyright infringements are penalized (art. L. 335-1 to L. 335-10 of the Intellectual Property Code), the offense of counterfeiting is punishable by a fine of 300,000 euros and 3 years imprisonment.

• for which it holds the intellectual property rights
• for which it has distribution rights
AFNOR therefore opposes any harvesting operation, text and data mining (within the meaning of article L. 122-5-3 of the intellectual property code), enrichment, derivative creation, related to this data, including by automated data collection or artificial intelligence devices, which would therefore constitute acts of counterfeiting, unless specific agreement formally expressed on the part of by AFNOR.

Without this, the French normative system (but also European and international) could not exist.
By purchasing a standard, you are helping to perpetuate this model, which is regularly valued by professionals and government bodies.
Click HERE to view the list of ICS codes.
To be in possession of the complete standard you must in certain cases obtain the basic standard as well as its additive. The text of the addendum is useless without the basic standard.
The technical content of the additives is not systematically incorporated into the text of the standard, and this choice is made by the standardization committee in charge of the field.
Absolutely, most of the French standards from international sectors, fully reproduce the international ISO standards that they use.
To be sure, see the "Correspondence" paragraph on the first page of a standard.
We remind you that on the product sheets of French standards you can preview a free extract of the standard in HTML format, including the first page.
NF: French standard
NF EN: French standard from European
industries NF ISO: French standard from international
industries NF EN ISO: French standard from International and then European industries.
In other words, it is an international standard which has been adopted at European level and then at French level.
No. It is important to distinguish standardization and certification.
The certification of a company requires an audit carried out by a certification body.
To validate this audit, it is essential to comply with the requirements of the standard relating to the certification that one wishes to obtain.
So it is necessary to buy the standard in order to know its content and specifics.
