Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Vehicle registration documents since 01-10-2005
The implementation of EU Directive 1999/37/EU "Registration
Documents for Vehicles" in national law and legal requirements
for data protection have necessitated the introduction of new,
falsification-proof registration documents. |
Since 01.10.2005, only the new documents are issued by the
registration authorities in the event of new registrations,
change of ownership, registration of technical modifications and
all other matters. |
The new registration documents are comprised of: |
Registration certificate part I, which replaces the
certificate of registration and |
Registration certificate part II, which replaces the vehicle
log book. |
Registration certificate part I (certificate of
registration) |
Contains all vehicle technical data which must be available
to register a vehicle in Europe; however, only one wheel and
tyre combination approved as standard is specified |
Contains the EU-wide, standardised, alphanumerical codes
assigned to the technical data, so that the German registration
certificate can be converted without problems into the
registration document prescribed in non-member European
countries for registration there |
Contains a field for documenting temporary or final
immobilisation of the vehicle, and is therefore no longer
withdrawn in the event of temporary or final immobilisation |
Registration certificate part II (vehicle log book) |
Contains the note that the holder of the registration
certificate is not identified as the owner |
Contains only the current and, if applicable, the last
vehicle owner; the actual number of previous owners is shown
numerically |
Contains only a small percentage of the technical vehicle
data |
No longer serves to document temporary vehicle
deregistration. The vehicle and body type specified under number
1 in the old vehicle documents will not exist in the future. In
the new documents, this will be replaced by standardised EU
vehicle classes with body type |
Introduction of the new registration documents will lead to
barely any changes for the vehicle operator. |
Like the old certificate of registration, the registration
certificate part I (certificate of registration) must be kept in
the vehicle and submitted to responsible persons on request. |
It is not necessary for the wheel and tyre combination
specified in the registration certificate part I (certificate of
registration) to be fitted. All combinations approved according
to the general vehicle type approval or EU type approval
→ Chapter may be fitted. |
The validity of a wheel and tyre combination which deviates
from the general vehicle type approval or EU type approval must
still be verified via an entry in the registration certificate
part I (certificate of registration), an installation
certificate based on a part certificate or general type approval
for the wheel and tyre combination. |
