# Commission Decision of 9 November 2007 adopting a common specification of the national vehicle register provided for under Articles 14(4) and (5) of Directives 96/48/EC and 2001/16/EC (notified under document number C(2007) 5357) (2007/756/EC), Division 3.2.3: Changing one or more registration item(s)

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The entity applying for a change to its vehicle registration item(s):
ticks the ‘Modification’ box,
fills in the current EVN (item No 0),
ticks the box(es) before the modified item(s),
enters the new content of the modified item(s), and then forwards the form to the RE.
The use of the standard form might not be sufficient for certain cases. If necessary, the RE concerned may therefore submit additional documents in either paper or electronic form.
Unless otherwise specified in the registration documents, the keeper of the vehicle is considered to be the owner of the vehicle referred to in regulation 36(8) of the 2011 Regulations.
Should a keeper change, it is the responsibility of the currently registered keeper to notify the RE and the RE has to notify the new keeper of the change of registration. The former keeper is removed from the NVR and relieved of its responsibilities only when the new keeper has acknowledged its acceptance of keeper status. If on the date of de-registration of the currently registered keeper no new keeper has accepted the keeper status, the registration of the vehicle is suspended.
In cases where, in accordance with the OPE NTSN, due to technical changes, the vehicle has to be given a new EVN, the owner of the vehicle shall inform the RE of these changes and, if applicable, of the new authorisation for placing in service .... This RE shall assign to the vehicle a new EVN.
The RE shall register the changes in the NVR within 20 working days from the receipt of a complete application file. The RE shall, within this deadline, either register the vehicle or request correction/clarification.
