TITLE: FMVSR INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in reply to your letter of June 18, 1975, requesting information on forms and information to be used in complying with NHTSA Certification regulations (49 CFR Parts 567, 568) and Manufacturer Identification regulations (49 CFR Part 566).

There are no special forms which the NHTSA provides for manufacturers for purposes of compliance with these requirements. Part 566 information may be furnished on a business letterhead. Part 567 and 568 information should be furnished in any form which complies with the prescribed requirements. You should be particularly aware of Sections 567.5 and 568.6 of these parts, which specify the information to be included on a certification label by a final-stage manufacturer. The Quarterly Report of Vehicles Produced is no longer required to be submitted. Although these requirements may be modified as a result of litigation, the NHTSA will consider compliance with the published requirements to meet any manufacturer's responsibilities for certification under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act (15 U.S.C. @ 1403). Copies of Parts 566, 567, and 568 are enclosed.

If you have any further questions regarding this matter, feel free to write again.
