ECMT Technical and Safety Compliance Certificate

DAF truck at the Vako Motors service center — ECMT Technical and Safety Compliance Certificate verification.

Vako Motors, as the official representative of DAF Trucks in Georgia, continues customer-oriented service. The goal is to help Georgian transport companies work safely, effectively, and in full compliance with the law when they do international transport.
Vako Motors issues the ECMT Certificate of Compliance with Technical and Safety Requirements for DAF trucks. This certificate is required for companies that use ECMT permits for international transport and want their vehicles to meet all environmental and technical standards of the EU and UN.

What does it mean in practice?
1) International Permits (ECMT Permits)
•Transport companies that drive in Europe and ECMT member countries need a special permit
•This permit is given only to trucks that meet ecological standards (EURO V safe, EURO VI safe, or EEV safe)

2) Ecological Standards
•The certificate proves that the truck engine and emissions do not go over the limits of UN/EU rules
•This means the truck does not pollute the environment too much and is compatible with European standards. Certificate shows the truck is eco-friendly and safe

3) At the Border
When a truck crosses from one country to another, customs or road control checks this certificate
•If the truck has no certificate or does not meet the standards, it can get a fine or even be stopped from driving

4) Benefits for Companies
•With the ECMT certificate, the truck can drive legally and without problems on European roads
•Higher emission standards (for example, EURO VI) give more chances for the company to get ECMT permits and enter more countries
•In simple words: this document works as an “eco-technical passport” for international road transport.

Getting the ECMT certificate from the official DAF representative gives full guarantee that the document is authentic and fully matches European standards.
