Certificate of Conformity VW

The Volkswagen EC Certificate of Conformity (COC) is the official technical birth certificate of your vehicle. This document confirms that your Volkswagen complies with all European type-approval regulations.

When you order a Volkswagen COC, you receive an official confirmation of all technical specifications directly issued by the manufacturer. This document is the only certificate accepted without additional inspections by European vehicle registration authorities and technical inspection bodies.

With an original Volkswagen Certificate of Conformity, your vehicle can be registered in any EU, EEA, UK, or Swiss country without the need for a costly individual approval.

We understand that vehicle registration processes are time-sensitive. For this reason, our workflow is designed for maximum efficiency and reliability:

• Immediate verification: after you submit your details, our specialists check availability without delay.
• Free PDF copy: a digital copy is sent to you by email as soon as it is released by the manufacturer.
• Physical original: the official document is dispatched directly to your address once it has been issued.
  

For shipping, you can choose between UPS Standard and UPS Express:

• UPS Standard: €0.00 (+3 to 7 working days)
• UPS Express: +€19.90 (+1 working day)

Please note: When issuing Volkswagen Certificates of Conformity for vehicles with first registration before 2001, the processing time may take up to 15 working days. VW COC documents for vehicles manufactured before 2000 do not contain a watermark.

The Volkswagen COC document provides a complete overview of all homologated technical data, going beyond the information shown on a standard vehicle registration certificate:

• Identification: vehicle identification number (VIN), brand, type, and variant.
• Engine specifications: engine capacity, maximum power output, and fuel type.
• Dimensions and weights: length, width, height, and permitted towing capacity.
• Emissions: CO₂ values and emission standards (Euro 6, etc.), which are essential for vehicle taxation.
• Tyres and wheels: all manufacturer-approved tyre sizes and wheel specifications, ideal for aftermarket wheel selection.
• Additional data: official colour designation and number of approved seats.

To request your Volkswagen COC, you must provide the 17-character vehicle identification number (VIN). You can find it in the following locations:

• Vehicle registration document: in field “E” of the registration certificate (Part I).
• On the vehicle: visible through the windscreen on the driver’s side (lower section) or on the manufacturer’s identification plate located on the B-pillar.
  

Important note: please enter the VIN without spaces when placing your order. Make sure not to confuse the letter “O” with the number “0”, as this could cause processing delays.
