EUCARIS and the NAP
For information only; no rights can be derived from it. Only the electronic CoC (IVI) is legally valid.
A sealed eCoC still has to reach the authorities. That happens through the National Access Point (NAP) and EUCARIS, the European network countries use to exchange vehicle data.
How does it work?
You create and seal the eCoC. Then you submit it through the official route: the National Access Point, which is connected to EUCARIS. Registration authorities can then retrieve the vehicle's data.
The test phase
Before you go live, your connection and your test eCoCs have to work. This step is often underestimated. A file that looks fine in your own system can still fail on a field or a rule during testing.
On Road guides you through the NAP tests, from the first test file to live submission.
After that
Once live, you submit eCoCs from On Road. If something needs correcting, you create a new version for the same VIN.
FAQ
What is the NAP?
The National Access Point through which manufacturers submit eCoCs.
What is EUCARIS?
The European network for exchanging vehicle and driving licence data between countries. eCoC data runs through this network.
How do I submit an eCoC?
Through the National Access Point, after validation and sealing. With On Road this is done from the platform.
Do I have to test first?
Yes. Your connection and test eCoCs must work before you go live. On Road guides you through it.
Can I test against the official rules?
Yes. The official tools (EUCARIS/RDW) allow testing against the XSD and ICM.
