Director for International Harmonization Promotion
About International Harmonization Promotion
Efforts to internationally harmonize automobile technical regulations have been made by World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations (WP29) within the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UN-ECE). Japan has been actively working on the development and amendment of UN regulations and UN global technical regulations under the international agreements sponsored by UN-ECE/WP29
To support the Japanese government’s efforts, the NTSEL joins a variety of meetings organized under UN-ECE/WP29 and actively proposes regulations and test procedures making best use of the results of its studies and type approval tests, and based on Japanese advanced automobile technology.
