How Recognition Is Granted

  • AMBER STAR recognition is granted exclusively on the basis of independent evaluation outcomes under the Amberdwell Index framework.

  • Properties cannot apply for inclusion, purchase evaluation results, or influence assessment outcomes through commercial participation.

  • Recognition is offered only after a property has independently achieved the required qualification threshold.
