- Sales certificates are issued in relation to the amount of copies that are shipped to music stores - NOT actual sales
- Please note that individual European countries, such as UK, Germany and France all issue sales certificates for sales within their country. However, "Europe" sales certificates are issued by the IFPI and includes sales/shipments made over the whole continent. When trying to calculate global sales, do not get confused and count both the "Europe" sales certificate and individual countries certificates.
