Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: COC document (EEC Certificate of Conformity)
| Manufactures of motorized vehicles must apply for an EU
operating permit for all class M1 passenger carrying vehicles. |
| A certificate is produced on the basis of this operating
permit - the COC (Certificate of Conformity). |
| This document certifies that the vehicle complies with the
EU operating permit (EU type approval) and can be registered in
every EU country without an individual type approval. |
| The document will be issued for all vehicles that comply
with the EU operating permit. |
| These vehicles have an EU type plate (black sticker) in the
area of the driver's door, or in the case of older vehicles, in
the engine compartment. |
| The COC document has the same value as the registration
document and therefore the original should not be carried on the
vehicle. |
| The COC document provides detailed technical data and all
permissible wheel and tyre combinations. |
