Questionnaire for the list of UN Regulations included in UN R0 and a procedure for spare parts
Document SGR0-11-12/Rev.3
23 June 2014

Questionnaire for 1958 Agreement contracting parties to solicit input on the UN Regulations to include in the whole vehicle type approval. In addition, the questionnaire solicits input concerning replacement parts. Under IWVTA, a contracting party could apply UN Regulation 0 and accept type-approved vehicles while not necessarily applying all the regulations included in the whole vehicle approval. This raises the prospect of a situation where a contracting party accepts a type-approved vehicle but not all the type-approvals of replacement parts used for its maintenance.

45. The representative of Japan, Vice-Chair of the IWG on IWVTA, reported on the work progress made during the meetings held in Moscow prior to the WP.29 session (WP.29-163-19). He underlined the need to distribute a questionnaire to be sent to all countries/REIO (regional economic integrated organizations) participating in WP.29 on the difficulty with the proposed UN Regulations included in UN R0 and on the procedure for spare parts (WP.29-163-20 and WP.29-163-21). He proposed the insertion of a new column in the status document of the Agreement to list minimum acceptable versions of UN Regulations by Contracting Parties which accept the IWVTA of limited recognition. He sought the consent of WP.29 to use English as the only language for the application of type approvals and the accompanying documentation.

46. The World Forum welcomed the work done by IWVTA and endorsed the proposed procedures above.
