Amendments to UN type approvals

2.1. The manufacturer holding a UN type approval for their vehicle, equipment or part shall inform without delay the Contracting Party that issued the UN type approval of any change in the particulars of the type as recorded in the information referred to in paragraph 1.3.

2.2. The Contracting Party shall decide which of the two procedures to amend the UN type approval as laid down in paragraphs 2.5 and 2.6 is to be followed. Where necessary, the Contracting Party may decide, in consultation with the manufacturer that a new UN type approval may need to be granted.

2.3. An application for amending a UN type approval may only be submitted to the Contracting Party that issued the original UN type approval.

2.4. If the Contracting Party finds it necessary, for the purpose of amending the UN type approval, to carry out inspections or tests, it shall inform the manufacturer accordingly.

2.5. When particulars of the type as recorded in the information documents and test reports have changed and the Contracting Party considers that the changes are unlikely to have an appreciable adverse effect on the environmental and/or functional safety performance, and that in any case the type still complies with the requirements of the UN Regulations concerned, the modification of the UN type approval shall be designated as a “revision”.

In such a case, the Contracting Party shall issue the revised pages of the information documents and test reports as necessary, marking each revised page to show clearly the nature of the modification and the date of re-issue. A consolidated, updated version of the information documents and test reports, accompanied by a detailed description of the modification, shall be deemed to meet this requirement.

2.6. The amendment to a UN type approval shall be designated as an “extension” if, in addition to the change of the data recorded in the information documents:

a) Further inspections or tests are required; or

b) Any information on the communication document (with the exception of its attachments) has changed; or

c) Approval to a later series of amendments is requested after its entry into force, which can be granted provided that the requirements of a later series of amendments are fulfilled.

2.7. Confirmation or refusal of amending the UN type approval, specifying the alterations, shall be communicated to the Contracting Parties to the 1958 Agreement applying the UN Regulation by means of a communication form. In addition, the index to the information documents and to the test reports, attached to the communication document, shall be amended accordingly to show the date of the most recent revision or extension.

2.8. The type approval authority granting the extension of approval shall update the approval number with an extension number incremented in accordance with the number of successive extensions already granted in accordance with Schedule 4 annexed to the 1958 Agreement and issue a revised communication form denoted by this extension number.
