‘Appendix 2
Requirements for the approval pursuant to Article 24 of complete vehicles belonging to category M1 and N1, produced in large series in or for third countries
0. OBJECTIVE
A vehicle is deemed to be new where:
|
(a)
|
it has never been registered previously; or
|
|
(b)
|
it has been registered for less than 6 months at the time of the application for individual approval.
A vehicle shall be considered registered where it has obtained a permanent, temporary or short-term administrative authorisation for entry into service in road traffic, involving its identification and the issuing of a registration number (1).
|
1. ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
1.1. Categorisation of the vehicle
Vehicles shall be categorised according to the criteria set out in Annex II.
For such purposes:
|
(a)
|
the actual number of seating positions shall be taken into consideration; and
|
|
(b)
|
the technically maximum permissible laden mass shall be the maximum mass stated by the manufacturer in the country of origin and available in his official documentation.
|
Where it is not possible to easily determine the vehicle category because of the design of the bodywork, the conditions set out in Annex II shall apply.
1.2 Application for individual approval
|
(a)
|
The applicant shall submit an application to the approval authority accompanied by all relevant documentation necessary for the operation of the approval process.
Where the submitted documentation is incomplete, falsified or forged the application for approval shall be rejected.
|
|
(b)
|
Only one application for a particular vehicle may be submitted in only one Member State.
By a particular vehicle, it shall be understood a physical vehicle the vehicle identification number of which is clearly identified.
For the application of this point, the approval authority may require that the applicant commits himself in writing that he will submit only one application in one Member State.
However, any applicant may apply for individual approval in another Member States in respect of a vehicle that has technical characteristics identical or similar to the one that has been granted an individual approval.
|
|
(c)
|
The model of the application form and the layout of the file shall be laid down by the approval authority.
Particulars may only consist in an appropriate selection of the information included in Annex I.
|
|
(d)
|
The technical requirements to be satisfied are those laid down in Section 4 of this Appendix.
They shall be those applicable to new vehicles belonging to a vehicle type currently in production, in relation to the date of the submission of the application.
|
|
(e)
|
With respect to certain tests required in some regulatory acts listed in this Annex, the applicant shall supply a statement of compliance with recognised international standards or regulations. The statement in question may only be issued by the vehicle manufacturer.
“Statement of compliance” shall mean a statement issued by the office or department within the manufacturer’s organisation which is duly authorised by the management to fully engage the legal responsibility of the manufacturer with respect to the design and the construction of a vehicle.
The regulatory acts for which such a statement has to be supplied shall be those referred to in Section 4 of this Appendix.
Where a statement gives rise to uncertainty, the applicant may be required to obtain from the manufacturer a conclusive piece of evidence, including a test report, in order to corroborate the manufacturer’s statement.
|
1.3. Technical services entrusted with individual approvals
|
(a)
|
The technical services entrusted with individual approvals shall be of category A as referred to in Article 41(3).
|
|
(b)
|
By way of derogation from the second subparagraph of Article 41(4), technical services shall comply with the following standards:

(i)
|
EN ISO/IEC 17025:2005 when they perform tests themselves;
|
|
(ii)
|
EN ISO/IEC 17020:2004 when they check compliance of the vehicle with the requirements included in this Appendix.
|
|
|
(c)
|
Where specific tests requiring specific skills have to be conducted at the request of the applicant, they shall be conducted by one of the technical services notified to the Commission at the choice of the applicant.
For example, where a frontal impact test has to be conducted in agreement with the applicant in a Member State “A”, the test may be conducted by a notified technical service in a Member State “B”.
|
1.4. Test reports
|
(a)
|
Test reports shall be drafted in accordance with Section 5.10.2 of Standard EN ISO/IEC 17025:2005.
|
|
(b)
|
They shall be drafted in one of the languages of the Union determined by the approval authority.
Where in application of point 1.3(c) a test report has been established in a Member State other than the one entrusted with the individual approval, the approval authority may require that the applicant submits a true translation of the test report.
|
|
(c)
|
They shall include a description of the vehicle tested including unambiguous identification. The parts which play a significant role with regard to the results of the tests shall be described and their identification number reported.
Examples of parts include the silencers for noise measurement and the engine management system (ECU) for the measurement of tailpipe emissions.
|
|
(d)
|
At the request of an applicant, a test report delivered for a system related to a particular vehicle may be presented repeatedly either by the same or another applicant for the purposes of individual approval of another vehicle.
In such a case the approval authority shall ensure that the technical characteristics of the vehicle are properly inspected against the test report.
Inspection of the vehicle and the documentation accompanying the test report shall lead to the conclusion that the vehicle for which an individual approval is sought has the same characteristics as the vehicle described in the report.
|
|
(e)
|
Only authenticated copies of a test report may be submitted.
|
|
(f)
|
Test reports referred to in point 1.4(d) do not include the reports drawn up in order to grant the vehicle individual approval.
|
1.5. It is inherent in the individual approval process that each particular vehicle is inspected physically by the technical service.
No exemption to this principle shall be permitted.
1.6. Where the approval authority is satisfied that the vehicle meets the technical requirements specified in this Appendix and conforms to the description included in the application it shall grant approval in accordance with Article 24.
1.7. The certificate of approval shall be drafted according to Model D as laid down in Annex VI.
1.8. The approval authority shall keep record of all approvals granted under Article 24.
2. EXEMPTIONS

|
|
(b)
|
Where it is not possible to identify the type, the variant and the version because of the absence of appropriate data, the usual commercial name of the vehicle may be referred to.
|
