Barre Rouge document as an alternative to Certificate of Conformity.

Recommended Posts

A friend of mine was having difficulty in getting a certificate of conformity for his Hyandai Van. Large amounts of money were being asked by Hyandai for a Certificate of Conformity but when on advice, he asked for the Barre Rouge document this was sent without charge by return. This document is a full manufacturers spec for the vehicle in French and surprisingly has a red diagonal stripe across its front. Question,

Are these documents just for commercial vehicles or availble for cars as well?

Its a few years now since I re-registered my cars so perhaps things have changed

The barré rouge (notice descriptive) is merely the manufacturer's standard technical specification sheet for a particuler vehicle model.  It does not provide evidence that your friend's vehicle matches that spec.  That's why he has to ask Hyundai France to issue a vehicle specific certificate of conformity (attestation d'identification) ie, containing his vehicle registration/VIN number.
