Upcoming Revision 3 to the 1958 Agreement: Objectives

  • A CP applying a UN Regulation may issue type-approvals pursuant to earlier

versions of the UN Regulation (i.e. pursuant to preceding series of amendments or the original version of the UN Regulation). However, other CPs applying the UN Regulation are be obliged to accept such type- approvals (ease accession by countries from emerging economies to join).

  • All CPs applying a UN Regulation shall mutually recognize type-approvals

granted according to the latest version of the UN Regulation (keep principle

  • f mutual recognition).
  • Insertion of the new scheme for the International Whole Vehicle Type

Approval (IWVTA) into draft UN Regulation No. 0.

  • Developing of a Database for the Exchange of Type Approval documentation

(DETA) between all CPs (hosted with UNECE).

  • Modified voting procedure and conditions (delegation of voting right to

another CP; current consideration of 4/5 majority instead of 2/3 majority).
