ISO has not announced a date. Stage 50.00 was recorded on 28 August 2026. This site uses 16 February 2027 as a planning estimate, and the CEN adoption project lists 4 April 2027.
The ISO record shows the project at stage 50.00, final text received or FDIS registered for formal approval, on 28 August 2026. Stage 50.20, the eight-week FDIS ballot, had no date at retrieval. ISO publishes the edition when the ballot closes and the text is issued, at stage 60.60. The planning date on this site is an estimate, 120 days from the build date, and it is labelled as an estimate wherever it appears. The CEN-CENELEC adoption project for the European text lists 4 April 2027. Neither is an ISO publication date, and the refresh script fails when the ISO stage moves.
Why does the date matter if there is no deadline?
Because an audit after publication will expect the description to use the current vocabulary. The date is a planning trigger, not a legal deadline.
What if the date moves?
The record is re-dated and the watch sends the diff. The planning estimate is not an ISO commitment and is labelled as an estimate.
Where this comes from
The clause record states each unit in our own words and cites the source. The amendment page separates the public draft summary from the published base edition. The amendment record is ISO standard 88149.
Not legal advice; does not certify. The amendment wording is not held and is not stated.
