Hello!  I just checked the SQFI website- and nothing new has been posted.  The best I can come up with is "mid to late August" and "Q3"

Hi there! I just checked the SQFI website and found this:

 

Implementation Timeline

  • Q3: Official publication
  • April 2026: Projected full implementation with Edition 10 audits in place
  • Ongoing: Free resources and support tools available

Q3 gets us to the end of September

 

They received a lot more public commentary than they were banking on (is my educated guess)   If it's released in August, I would be gobsmacked

The July SQF Newletter said ..."The July heat is here, and so is the momentum building toward SQF Edition 10. While the Code goes into effect for audits in the second half of 2026, now is the time for practitioners to prepare their sites, teams, and leadership for what’s ahead."

 

I emailed them asking for a more definitive date because my audit falls in Mid-April, they did not give me even an approximate date. only saying we will let you know. I still don't know for sure if I will be audited under 9 or 10.
