1.The manufacturer shall inform without delay the approval authority that granted the EU type-approval of any change in the particulars recorded in the information package.
That approval authority shall decide which of the procedures laid down in Article 35 is to be followed.
Where necessary, the approval authority may decide, after consulting the manufacturer, that a new EU type-approval is to be granted.
2.An application for the amendment of an EU type-approval shall be submitted exclusively to the approval authority that granted the original EU type-approval.
3.If the approval authority finds that, for the purposes of making an amendment, inspections or tests need to be repeated, it shall inform the manufacturer accordingly.
The procedures referred to in Article 35 shall apply only if, on the basis of those inspections or tests, the approval authority concludes that the requirements for EU type-approval continue to be fulfilled.
1.If particulars recorded in the information package have changed, without requiring inspections or tests to be repeated, the amendment shall be designated a ‘revision’.
In such cases, the approval authority shall issue the revised pages of the information package as necessary, marking each revised page to show clearly the nature of the change and the date of re-issue. A consolidated, updated version of the information package, accompanied by a detailed description of the changes, shall be deemed to meet that requirement.
2.The amendment shall be designated an ‘extension’ when particulars recorded in the information package have changed and any of the following occurs:
(a)further inspections or tests are required;
(b)any information on the EU type-approval certificate, with the exception of its attachments, has changed;
(c)new requirements under any act listed in Annex II become applicable to the approved vehicle type or to the approved system, component or separate technical unit.
In the event of an extension, the approval authority shall issue an updated EU type-approval certificate denoted by an extension number, incremented in accordance with the number of successive extensions already granted. That approval certificate shall clearly show the reason for the extension and the date of re-issue.
3.Whenever amended pages or a consolidated, updated version are issued, the index to the information package attached to the approval certificate shall be amended accordingly to show the date of the most recent extension or revision, or the date of the most recent consolidation of the updated version.
4.No amendment to the type-approval of a vehicle shall be required if the new requirements referred to in point (c) of paragraph 2 are, from a technical point of view, irrelevant to that type of vehicle or concern categories of vehicle other than the category to which it belongs.
1.In the case of an extension, all relevant sections of the EU type-approval certificate, the attachments thereto, and the index to the information package shall be updated. The updated certificate and its attachments shall be issued to the applicant without delay.
2.In the case of a revision, the revised documents or the consolidated, updated version, as appropriate, including the revised index to the information package, shall be issued by the approval authority to the applicant without delay.
3.The approval authority shall notify any amendment made to EU type-approvals to the approval authorities of the other Member States in accordance with the procedures set out in Article 29.
