Rules for rail vehicle extension of area of use and specifications on standards and transition under Union requirements

Transport

The act is related to rail vehicle authorisations under the 4th Railway Package. Since 16 June 2019 the European Railways Agency is responsible for delivering vehicle authorisation issued to allow locomotives, coaches and wagons in more than one Member State. Further rules are required to clarify the conditions under which new technical specifications for interoperability (TSIs) will apply in case of extension of area of use authorisation for rail vehicles already operating in a Member State.
