The question and answer document aims to clarify the operation of the international whole vehicle type approval system. This question would confirm that a Contracting Party may apply additional requirements taken from a UN Regulation beyond those regulations specifically required under a limited whole vehicle approval (L-IWVTA). The L-IWVTA partially applies the list of requirements for a “Universal International Whole Vehicle Approval” (U-IWVTA). A CP could list UN Regulations required for an L-IWVTA and then notify WP.29 of additional requirements taken from other UN Regulations.
Contracting Party: A UN member-state or regional economic integration organization (REIO) that has acceded directly or indirectly to a UN agreement (e.g., the 1958, 1997, or 1998 Agreements).
Limited International Whole Vehicle Type Approval: Type approval to a lower level of stringency (to earlier versions of regulations and/or no type approvals)
Universal International Whole Vehicle Type Approval: Type approval pursuant to the highest level of stringency of the latest version of the UN Regulations listed in UN R0.
