Verra also administers the Climate Community and Biodiversity (CCB) Standards (multi-benefit land-use overlay), the Sustainable Development Verified Impact Standard (SD VISta) for SDG-mapped impact, and the Plastic Waste Reduction Standard which issues Waste Collection Credits (WCCs) and Waste Recycling Credits (WRCs). VCS credits are recognised by CORSIA (the ICAO aviation offsetting mechanism) and have category-by-category eligibility under ICVCM's Core Carbon Principles for high-integrity buyer markets. Verra projects must undergo independent assessment by approved Validation\/Verification Bodies (VVBs), which must hold ISO 14065:2020 accreditation through a VCS-recognised IAF member accreditation body operating under ISO\/IEC 17029:2019, plus Verra's own approval. The technical methodology floor is ISO 14064-2:2019 (project-level GHG quantification) and ISO 14064-3:2019 (validation and verification methodology). The Verra Lead Assessor is the individual practitioner inside an approved VVB who plans, leads, and signs off a validation (pre-implementation, assessing project description and baseline) or verification (post-monitoring, assessing ex-post MRV data) engagement.

The Validation Report is what Verra reads before registering the project. Verification happens after monitoring data has been collected, typically on a periodic cycle.

CCB is a multi-benefit label for land-use projects layered on top of VCS to identify projects with simultaneous climate community and biodiversity benefits.

The Verra Validation and Verification Manual explicitly references both - ISO 14064-2 for project-level GHG quantification and ISO 14064-3 for the validation\/verification methodology itself. A VVB Lead Assessor must be competent against both ISO standards as well as Verra-specific Program Guide requirements.

Typical ranges: validation 3-6 months for standard projects (forestry and REDD+ can extend further given site-visit complexity); verification 2-4 months for projects on a stable monitoring cycle.
