49 CFR 566 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration - Testing for Manufacturer Identification Requirements

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of 49 CFR 566 testing. This section requires manufacturers of motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment to which a motor vehicle safety standard applies to provide descriptive information and descriptions of the items they manufacture.

The purpose of this section is to facilitate manufacturers' regulation under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act and to help establish a code numbering system for all regulated manufacturers.

This section applies to all manufacturers of motor vehicles and manufacturers of motor vehicle equipment other than tires to which a motor vehicle safety standard (hereinafter "covered equipment") applies. In the case of multi-purpose passenger cars, trucks and trailers, the description will also be specific enough to indicate the intended use of vehicles such as "tank trailer", "caravan" or "cargo van".

In the case of motor vehicles produced in two or more stages, if the manufacturer is the manufacturer of the missing vehicle, it should be stated as such in the specification and include a description indicating the stage of completion of the vehicle and, if known, what types of use.

In the case of a replica of a motor vehicle, the manufacturer must include in the description of each type of motor vehicle it produces a definition that the vehicle is a replica of the motor vehicle.
