efectos acreditativos

Estoy traduciendo un certificado de colegiación en un Colegio de Farmacéuticos (España).

CONTEXTO: "Para que conste y surta *efectos acreditativos* ante las autoridades competentes donde proceda...".

Se me ha ocurrido "for accreditation purposes", pero me gustaría que alguien me lo confirmara.
Muchas gracias.

or "for the purposes of accreditation"
Note from asker:
Hi, Simon, it's not "surta A efectos acreditativos". "Surtir" in this case means something like "generate" (literally, it would be "for this certificate to generate accreditative effects", which doesn't sound all that natural in English...or does it? Thanks, anyway.

agree Charles Davis : Accreditation is not the same as verification, and here it's the former. I would suggest "serve" for "surtir": "serve for acceditation purposes", or perhaps better simply "serve as accreditation".
