European Union Agency for Railways
ERA
The objective of the Agency shall be to contribute to the further development and effective functioning of a single European railway area without frontiers, by guaranteeing a high level of railway safety and interoperability, while improving the competitive position of the railway sector.
European Commission
The European Commission represents the common interests of the EU and is the EU’s main executive body. It uses its ‘right of initiative’ to put forward proposals for new laws, which are scrutinised and adopted by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union.
In addition to the institutions, there are a number of bodies which play specialised roles in helping the EU to fulfil its tasks. Some bodies have the task of advising the institutions (the European Economic and Social Committee, the European Committee of the Regions); others ensure that the institutions comply with EU rules and procedures (the European Ombudsman, the European Data Protection Supervisor). The European External Action Service is an external policy body that supports the EU on foreign affairs matters.

Identification of the relevant authorisation cases (Art.14)
Concept scheme grouping the vehicle authorisation cases
The vehicle type authorisation and/or the vehicle authorisation for placing on the market issued by the authorising entity for a new vehicle type, including its variants and/or versions if any, and, where applicable, the first vehicle of a type, pursuant to Article 21(1) of Directive (EU) 2016/797.
First Authorisation
The renewal of a vehicle type authorisation pursuant to Article 24(3) of Directive (EU) 2016/797 which does not require a change in design of the vehicle type.
Renewed vehicle type authorisation
The vehicle type authorisation and/or the vehicle authorisation for placing on the market issued by the relevant authorising entity for an already authorised vehicle type and/or vehicle in order to extend the area of use without a change of the design, pursuant to Article 21(13) of Directive (EU) 2016/797.
Extended area of use
The vehicle type authorisation and/or vehicle authorisation for placing on the market issued by the authorising entity after a change of an already authorised vehicle and/or vehicle type, pursuant to Articles 21(12) or 24(3) of Directive (EU) 2016/797.
New Authorisation
The vehicle authorisation for placing on the market for a vehicle or a series of vehicles that conform to an already authorised and valid vehicle type on the basis of a declaration of conformity to that type, pursuant to Article 25(1) of Directive (EU) 2016/797. Where applicable, there shall be a clear identification of the vehicle type version and/or the vehicle type variant to which the vehicle or series of vehicles is conform.
