First proposed in early 2013, Belgium raised this initiative in order to combat mileage fraud and set uniform requirements for the odometers omnipresent in motor vehicles.
According to the Belgian submission, studies show that mileage fraud across the 28 million used cars registered annually in the EU costs consumers some 5-10 billion euros each year.
Belgium subsequently proposed to include odometer provisions within UN Regulation No. 39. Therefore, this development program is considered closed since any activity will now take place within the context of amending UN R39. For further and up-to-date information, please see the UN R39 page.
