With GSTC certification, accommodation facilities can demonstrate their commitment to sustainable tourism through a credible and internationally recognized brand.

FAQ

The GSTC certification aims to promote the concept of sustainability in the tourism sector in a practical and comprehensive way, through the implementation of basic principles and requirements which reduce the impact on the environment, highlight the local cultural heritage and optimize social and economic benefits for local communities.
When the company is ready to be audited, Vireo schedules a first certification audit (Main Assessment). In this phase, the requirements of the GSTC standard applicable to the structure are verified and, if compliance is established, a certificate is issued a few days after the audit.
he GSTC certificate has a duration of 3 years.
Hotel and resort guests are increasingly concerned about the sustainability of the services and products offered and they are aware of the need to adopt measures aimed at protecting and safeguarding the environment. The GSTC standard is internationally recognized and allows certified hotels to demonstrate their commitment to implementing and promoting a management system which is sustainable from an environmental, social and economic point of view.
