Request cannabis laboratory testing: a preparation checklist.

A clear request helps both parties establish early whether the proposed service fits the sample and question.

Describe your question

Start with the objective: which property do you need to establish and which decision follows? Supply product type, intended use, batch identifier and existing records. State whether sampling has already happened. An enquiry is not acceptance of the sample.

Confirm the scope

Request written confirmation of matrix, parameters, method, reporting units, limits and basis. Clarify whether a conformity statement is commissioned and what decision rule would support it. Ask for total cost, extras and a realistic process instead of relying on generic online prices.

Wait before dispatch

Send samples only after confirming lawful acceptance, packaging, quantity, labelling and transport conditions. Copy the checklist below locally. Nothing is submitted to a laboratory or CannabisClub.ch. Sample dispatch and a purchase through the producer network are separate processes.

Prepare your testing request

  • Product type / matrix and intended use
  • Batch identifier and quantity to be represented
  • Question and requested individual parameters
  • Sampling: who, when, where and under which plan?
  • Confirm lawful acceptance, quantity, container and transport
  • Method, units, result basis and reporting limits
  • Clarify accreditation scope and subcontracting
  • Agree total price, extras, process and report

Editorial guidance, not individual legal advice, laboratory services or product release. No review by an external laboratory is claimed.
