Frequency for surveillance audits

I was going through this post - https://advisera.com/27001academy/knowledgebase/surveillance-visits-vs-certification-audits/ Question I have is - What is the recommended frequency for surveillance audits for ISO 27001 - I know the certificate is valid for 3 years....Also, if this needs to be done annually, in year 3 do we need to do both survelliance audit and recertification audit? or one of them only needs to be done.

Answer: Normally certification bodies establish an one year interval between surveillance audits, but in specific cases this interval can be shorter.

When surveillance audits are annual, in year 3 only the recertification audit is needed.
