What is a CVO car?

A CVO car (Certificate of Conformity) is actually the 'birth certificate' of your car. The document describes 52 technical points of a car, such as emission data, engine power and safety features. When you have this declaration in your hands, you can easily demonstrate that your vehicle complies with European regulations. This way you are ready for a smooth registration with, for example, the RDW in the Netherlands or another authority in Europe.

Difference between CVO and coc document car?

  1. CVO car: Dutch abbreviation for Certificate of Conformity.
  2. COC document car: English name (Certificate of Conformity).
    In practice they mean the same thing: official proof that your car is 'Europe-proof'.

Suppose you want to import a car from Germany, or you are thinking about selling your current car to someone in Belgium. Then the new owner may need an official COC document car to register the vehicle. A few advantages of such a coc declaration car:

  1. Faster registration
    Inspection and registration at the RDW or other European authorities will proceed more smoothly if you have all the technical data at hand.

  3. Useful for export and sales
    Do you want to sell your car later in another EU country? With a CVO car, that step is easily taken.

In those cases a cvo application car the solution. Through a specialized agency – such as cocservices.eu – you can search for a replacement COC or CVO.
