for all passenger vehicles (vehicle class M1). |
| A certificate of conformity is produced based on this type
approval. |
| This document confirms that the vehicle conforms to the EU
operating license and is registered in every EU country without
the need for individual approval. |
| The issuing applies to all vehicles that were produced in
accordance with the EU operating license. |
| These vehicles have an EU type plate (black sticker) in the
driver door area or in the engine compartment on older vehicles. |
| The certificate of conformity has the same importance as the
operating license, so the original should not be kept in the
vehicle. |
| In the certificate of conformity additional technical data
and all permitted wheel/tire combinations are listed. |
