After withdrawal of a vehicle registration, any of the registration numbers assigned to the vehicle must not be assigned to any other vehicle for 100 years from the date the vehicle is withdrawn.
Any changes in the NVR should be recorded. The management of historical changes could be addressed by IT solutions.]

A two-step procedure applies.
A 12-digit number (according to [F43OPE NTSN] ) defined in accordance with the vehicle’s characteristics is allocated in the NVR. The IT system should link this registered number to the current vehicle number.
For vehicles used in international traffic, except those reserved for historical use: the 12-digit number is physically applied to the vehicle itself within a period of 6 years after allocation in the NVR. For vehicles used in domestic traffic and for those reserved for historical use: the physical application of the 12-digit number is voluntary.

A vehicle that has its registration suspended or withdrawn may not operate on the [F66UK] railway network under the recorded registration.
A reactivation of a registration after suspension will require the verification by the registration entity of the conditions which caused the suspension.

Textual Amendments
F89Inserted by Commission Decision of 14 November 2012 concerning the technical specification for interoperability relating to the ‘operation and traffic management’ subsystem of the rail system in the European Union and amending Decision 2007/756/EC (notified under document C(2012) 8075) (Text with EEA relevance) (2012/757/EU).
PART ‘ 0 ’ —U.K. VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION
General remarks U.K.
This appendix describes the European Vehicle Number and linked marking applied in a visible manner on the vehicle to identify it uniquely and in a permanent manner during operation. It does not describe other numbers or markings eventually engraved or fixed in a permanent manner on the chassis or the main components of the vehicle during its construction.
European Vehicle number and linked abbreviations U.K.
Each railway vehicle receives a number consisting of 12 figures (called European Vehicle Number (EVN)) with the following structure:
Rolling stock group | Interoperability capability and vehicle type [2 figures] | Country in which the vehicle is registered [2 figures] | Technical characteristics [4 figures] | Serial number [3 figures] | Check digit [1 figure] |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Wagons | 00 to 09 10 to 19 20 to 29 30 to 39 40 to 49 80 to 89 [details in part 6] | 01 to 99 [details in part 4] | 0000 to 9999 [details in part 9] | 000 to 999 | 0 to 9 [details in part 3] |
Hauled passenger vehicles | 50 to 59 60 to 69 70 to 79 [details in part 7] | 0000 to 9999 [details in part 10] | 000 to 999 | ||
Tractive rolling stock and units in a train set in fixed or pre-defined formation | 90 to 99 [details in part 8] | 0000000 to 8999999 F90... | |||
Special vehicles | 9000 to 9999 [details in part 11] | 000 to 999 |

PART 1 —U.K. VEHICLE KEEPER MARKING
[F161. Definition of the Vehicle Keeper Marking (VKM) U.K.
A Vehicle Keeper Marking (VKM) is an alphabetic code, consisting of 2 to 5 letters(2). A VKM is inscribed on each rail vehicle, near the European Vehicle Number. The VKM identifies the Vehicle Keeper as registered in a National Vehicle Register.]

2. Format of the Vehicle Keeper Marking U.K.
The VKM is representation of the full name or abbreviation of the vehicle keeper, if possible in a recognisable manner. All 26 letters of the Latina alphabet may be used. The letters in the VKM are written in capitals. Letters that do not stand for first letters of words in the keeper’s name may be written in lower case. For checking uniqueness, the letters written in lower case will be taken as written in capitals.

A single VKM can be issued for a group of companies:
that belong to single corporate structure (e.g. holding structure);
that belong to a single corporate structure that has appointed and mandated one organisation within this structure to handle all issues on behalf of all others;
that has mandated a separate, single legal entity for handling all issues on their behalf, in which event the legal entity is the keeper.

The holder of a VKM must inform the [F99Safety Authority] when he ends the use of a VKM F100.... A VKM will then be revoked once the keeper has proved that the marking has been changed on all vehicles concerned. It will not be reissued for 10 years, unless it is reissued to the original holder or at his request to another holder.

A VKM can be transferred to another holder, which is the legal successor to the original holder. A VKM stays valid when the VKM’s holder changes his name to a name that does not bear resemblance to the VKM.
In case of a change of keeper which entails a change of VKM, the vehicles concerned must be marked with the new VKM within three months from the date of registration of the change of keeper in the National Vehicle Register. In case of inconsistency between the VKM marked on the vehicle and the data registered in the NVR, the NVR-registration supersedes.

The check-digit is determined in the following manner:
the digits in the even positions of the basic number (counting from the right) are taken at their own decimal value;
the digits in the odd positions of the basic number (counting from the right) are multiplied by 2;
the sum formed by the digits in even position and by all the digits which constitute the partial products obtained from the odd positions is then established;
the unit’s digit of this sum is retained;
the complement required to bring the unit’s digit to 10 forms the check-digit; should this units digit be nought, then the check-digit will also be nought.
Examples : U.K.

Let the basic number be | 3 | 3 | 8 | 4 | 4 | 7 | 9 | 6 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
Multiplication factor | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
6 | 3 | 16 | 4 | 8 | 7 | 18 | 6 | 2 | 0 | 0 |
Sum: 6 + 3 + 1 + 6 + 4 + 8 + 7 + 1 + 8 + 6 + 2 + 0 + 0 = 52
The unit’s digit of this sum is 2.
The check-digit number will therefore be 8 and the basic number thus becomes the registration number 33 84 4796 100 – 8.

Let the basic number be | 3 | 1 | 5 | 1 | 3 | 3 | 2 | 0 | 1 | 9 | 8 |
Multiplication factor | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
6 | 1 | 10 | 1 | 6 | 3 | 4 | 0 | 2 | 9 | 16 |
Sum: 6 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 6 + 3 + 4 + 0 + 2 + 9 + 1 + 6 = 40
The unit’s digit of this sum is 0.
The check-digit number will therefore be 0 and the basic number thus becomes the registration number 31 51 3320 198 – 0.
