Assign topic to the user
From a certification point of view, provided the certification body is accredited, it can be from any country, not only the one from the on of the company to be certified.
However, you also need to check if you have local laws/regulations, or customer contracts, about the country of origin of the certification body.
If you have no legal or contractual limitations, you can get ISO 27001 certified by a certification body from any country.
