In short. An installer may display the qualification logo matching a valid certificate after receiving it, for the qualification and certificate years held.
Definition: A Qualit'EnR qualification logo identifies a qualification held by an installation company. Under the rules in force on 17 October 2026, website use requires receipt of a valid certificate and a logo corresponding to the qualification and certificate years held.
Key facts
- Qualit'EnR's September 2026 usage rules permit logo use from receipt of the qualification certificate until its expiry; a pending application gives no advance right to use it.
- The graphic charter provides year-marked logos through each company's reserved account area and requires the company's own logo to appear larger than the qualification logo.
- Qualit'EnR's certificate-checking guide identifies the official directory as a place to download current certificates.
Which logo belongs on the website?
Qualit'EnR's usage rules, section 3.1.1, restrict use to the qualifications obtained and years covered by their certificates. They also prohibit qualified companies from using the association's own Qualit'EnR logo.
The graphic charter, sections 2.4.2 to 2.4.4, permits qualification logos on the qualified company's website. It distinguishes logos carrying the RGE designation, meaning Reconnu garant de l'environnement, from the qualification logos for QualiPV module Bât and Recharge Elec +, which use the version without RGE. The charter requires reproduction in colour without modification. Files supplied to qualified companies carry a year; Qualit'EnR reserves production of materials bearing a logo without a year to itself.
When must the logo be removed?
The certificate-checking guide states that outside the periods covered by a certificate, the company ceases to hold the qualification even if its qualification cycle remains open. Under the usage rules, section 4.1.3, suspension or revocation also removes the right to use the mark.
How can the qualification claim be checked?
The certificate-checking guide directs readers to search for the company by its SIRET establishment number and compare its certificate with the official directory copy. The check covers the SIRET number, the qualification holder's identifier, the work covered and the validity period. The guide supplies this directory address:

FAQ
Can I display the logo while my application is being assessed?
No. Qualit'EnR's usage rules, section 3.1.1, prohibit advance use while an application is pending. Use requires receipt of the certificate and remains limited to its validity period.
Can I edit a downloaded logo to remove the year?
The graphic charter, sections 2.2 to 2.4.4, requires unmodified qualification logos and supplies year-marked versions to qualified companies. You obtain the authorised files from your company's reserved account area.
