ANNEX VIII
Common data-set and technical details for automated enquiry of vehicle registration data
1. OBLIGATION
Each data element reported under section 4 of this Annex shall be communicated when the information is available in a Member State's national vehicle register.
2. VEHICLE/OWNER/HOLDER SEARCH
There are five different ways to search for vehicle registration data:
(1) by Chassis Number (VIN), Reference Date and Time (optional),
(2) by Licence Plate Number, Vehicle Chassis Number (VIN) (optional), Reference Date and Time (optional),
(3) by Vehicle Holder, date of birth (optional), Reference Date and Time (optional),
(4) by Vehicle Owner, date of birth (optional), Reference Date and Time (optional),
(5) by VAT number of the holder/owner of the vehicle, Reference Date and Time (optional).
Without prejudice to the obligation set out in section 1 of this Annex, the Member States may decide not to make all these search modes available if, in the case of outgoing requests, they deem that one or more of them do not meet their Eurofisc liaison officials' needs or, in the case of incoming requests, the information requested is not available in that Member State's national vehicle register.
3. TYPES OF QUERIES
Based on the data set defined in section 4 of this Annex, and the type of search provided for in section 2, seven different types of queries can be submitted:
(1) Vehicle-owner/holder inquiry: Requesting a limited set of vehicle information plus the owner and/or holder of the vehicle based on the country-code and Licence Plate Number or Vehicle Chassis Number (VIN), and reference date/time. In case the inquiry is made by Vehicle Chassis Number, it is possible to broadcast the request to several or all connected countries.
(2) Extended vehicle-owner/holder inquiry: Requesting an extended set of technical vehicle data, registration data and the owner and holder of the vehicle based on the country-code and Licence Plate Number or Vehicle Chassis Number (VIN), and reference date/time. In case the inquiry is made by VIN, it is possible to broadcast the request to several or all connected countries.
(3) Vehicle-owner/holder history inquiry: Requesting the list of all past owners/holders of a vehicle whichever the countries where the vehicle was previously registered by the provision of a Vehicle Chassis Number (VIN), without a reference date/time. It is possible to broadcast the request to several or all connected countries.
(4) Vehicles by owner/holder Inquiry: Requesting all vehicles, with a limited set of identifying data, registered on the name of a given natural person based on the first name, last name, date of birth (optional) or ID (optional) of the owner/holder or of a given legal person based on the company's registration name.
(5) Vehicle by VAT number inquiry: Requesting all vehicles, with a limited set of identifying data, registered on the name of a given natural person or a given legal person based on the VAT number.
(6) A batch version of the abovementioned queries 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 containing several cases. A batch will always be sent to one specific country
(7) A hit/no hit inquiry containing several Vehicle Chassis Number (VINs) sent out to several countries. In reply, the requesting Member State will receive a series of tables (a table per responding Member State) with an indication of which VINs were found/not found. This function will only be available in batch mode.
Normally, the actual Date and Time is used to make a query, but it is possible to conduct a search with a Reference Date and Time in the past. When a query is made with a Reference Date and Time in the past and historical information is not available in the register of the specific Member State because no such information is registered at all, the actual information can be returned with an indication that the information is actual information
Without prejudice to the obligation set out in section 1 of this Annex, the Member States may decide not to make all these query modes available if, in the case of outgoing requests, they deem that one or more of them do not meet their Eurofisc liaison officials' needs or, in the case of incoming requests, the information requested is not available in that Member State's national vehicle register.
