THE
AUTOMOTIVE
REGULATORY
GUIDE
www.acea.auto
AU TO M OT I V E R E G U L ATO RY G U I D E 2 0 2 3
The updated third edition elaborates on regulations applicable in 25 countries and four
economic and trading areas (EU, ASEAN, the Golf Cooperation Council [GCC] & Eurasia).
Specifically, the third edition now covers six additional countries: Argentina, Chile, Colombia,
Ecuador, South Africa, and Turkey, together with a new section on EU free trade agreements
(FTAs). The Guide also consolidates the UN Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE)
regulations, including the 1958, 1997 and 1998 Agreements. Reference is also made to the
regulatory framework of the World Forum WP.29, which supports introducing innovative
vehicle technologies to the market.
As this Guide emphasises, the European automotive industry is one of Europe's most
heavily regulated sectors. Europe can and should do better to ensure coherent legislation
while enhancing competitiveness internationally. For instance, harmonisation of EU and
international regulations will be critical to accelerating the transition towards climate
neutrality and fostering international trade – this includes coherent rules concerning how
motor vehicles are built and approved. Furthermore, national regulations at the EU member
state level, which define additional requirements before products are placed on the market,
will also be crucial. In sum, smarter rather than more legislation can unlock the full potential of
Europe’s auto industry.
With the support of national and international regulators, the automotive industry is committed
to facing today’s challenges for a smarter, greener, and more competitive future. ACEA hopes
that both industry and policy makers will benefit from the Regulatory Guide, the first of its kind
compiling all EU and international regulations covering the industry in one place.

EU INSTITUTIONS
Council of
European Parliament European Commission
the European Union
Together, these three institutions produce through the ‘Ordinary Legislative Procedure’ (ex ‘co-decision’) the policies and laws that
apply throughout the EU.
In principle, the European Commission proposes new laws, and the Parliament and Council adopt them.
The Commission and the member countries then implement them, and the Commission ensures that the laws are properly applied
and implemented.

Introduction
The "1958 Agreement", officially known as the "Agreement Concerning the Adoption of Uni-
form Technical Prescriptions for Wheeled Vehicles, Equipment and Parts which can be Fitted
and/or be Used on Wheeled Vehicles and the Conditions for Reciprocal Recognition of Ap-
provals Granted on the Basis of these Prescriptions", is intended to achieve harmonization
and mutual recognition of regulations concerning motor vehicles with regards to safety and
the environment. The agreement consists of a set of regulations created by the United Nations
Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) with the aim of reducing technical barriers to in-
ternational trade in motor vehicles.
Due to the 1958 Agreement, it was possible to standardize technical regulations, especial-
ly for vehicles and vehicle parts, as well as achieve mutual recognition of these standards
between the contracting parties. More than 160 of these UN rules have been established since
1958. While it is not mandatory for participating countries to adopt these rules, a large ma-
jority of countries have complied with them and implemented them into national law. Each
country that has signed the Agreement is authorized to review and approve the design of a
manufacturer of a regulated product, regardless of the country in which that component was
manufactured. Furthermore, each individual design from each individual manufacturer is
counted as a single type. That means that, if an acceding country issues a type approval, each
other acceding country is obliged to recognize that type approval and consider it legal for im-
portation, sale and use. Parts that are type approved by the UN regulation are marked with an
E and a number inside a circle (ECE mark). The number shows which country has approved the
item, and other letters and numbers indicate the exact version of the regulation.

Introduction
The "1997 Agreement“ or formally titled "Agreement Concerning the Adoption of Uniform
Conditions for Periodical Technical Inspections of Wheeled Vehicles and the Reciprocal Reco-
gnition of Such Inspections“, provides harmonized technical and administrative provisions on
periodic technical inspection (PTI) of in-service vehicles. This includes test frequencies, test

Introduction
The "1998 Agreement" or "Agreement Concerning the Establishing of Global Technical Regu-
lations for Wheeled Vehicles, Equipment and Parts which can be Fitted and/or be Used on
Wheeled Vehicles" is a follow-up agreement to the 1958 Agreement.
The 1998 Agreement was made with the goal of increasing road safety, reducing environmen-
tal damage, and providing better anti-theft protection for vehicles and vehicle parts through
globally uniform technical regulations. The countries who signed the agreement have esta-
blished a global UN registry containing the UN GTRs (United Nations Global Technical Regu-
lations). The content of the UN GTRs are standardized performance requirements as well as
standardized test procedures.
Each individual GTR is described in detail not only with the technical rationale, but also with
sources used for research, cost/benefit considerations, and references to the data used. Par-
ticipating states use their own national legislative process to implement the GTRs into natio-
nal law.

EU FREE-TRADE AGREEMENTS
Introduction
– The main aim of the EU while signing free trade agreements (FTAs) with regard to vehicles
and their parts is to reduce tariffs and to remove the technical barriers to trade in the auto-
motive sector.
– To remove the technical barriers to trade, the contracting parties are encouraged to ac-
cept, as compliant with national regulations, the UNECE regulations, to harmonize their
legislation with UNECE regulations and/or to join the UNECE 1958 Agreement.
– Most often, the provisions on automotive sector are contained in annexes on vehicles and
their parts of free trade agreements.
– The annexes normally cover topics such as: acceptance of international standards, appli-
cation of UNECE, consultation procedures, products with new technologies, dispute sett-
lement, working groups on motor vehicles and parts, etc.
– Even though the provisions of FTAs with regard to vehicles and their parts seem similar at
the first sight, provisions very often differ in detail.
– To date, the EU has entered into 46 trade agreements with 78 countries with additional
agreements about to be applied (e.g. Mercosur, Mexico) and numerous agreements (e.g.
Australia, Chile) being renegotiated or modernised. A few of these agreements have speci-
fic regulations on the automotive sector, as described on the following pages.

MAIN PROVISIONS
The specific rules regarding motor vehicles are contained in Annex 4-A of the agreement and largely point to
improving vehicle safety, environmental performance and further harmonization in the framework of the 1998
UNECE Agreement (Art. 1 of Annex 4-A).
Cooperation and harmonization efforts are particularly stressed regarding post-implementation reviews of tech-
nical regulations and standards and the exchange of research linked to advanced emission reduction and elec-
tric vehicle technologies (Art. 2 of Annex 4-A).
The agreement currently covers 19 UNECE regulations Canada has at least partially adopted and transposed into
national law (see Annex 4-A-1) with currently further 8 UNECE regulations to be continuously reviewed and incor-
porated by Canada as stated in Art. 4(2)-(3) of Annex 4-A.

Singapore
MAIN PROVISIONS
Singapore is not party to the UNECE 1958 Agreement, therefore not , following its type-approval system. The free
trade agreement, thus, specifically states that all forms of motor vehicles and their parts falling under Chapters
40, 84, 85, 87 and 94 of the HS (Harmonized System) 2012 are covered (see Article 1 of Annex 2-B). Furthermore,
should Singapore decide to introduce a type-approval system for those products, it shall consider adopting the
1958 Agreement, as well.
Any products produced in conformity with EC or UNECE requirements are to be accepted in Singapore without
requiring any further procedures or markings (see Article 3 (3) of Annex 2-B).
