TÜV entry and certificate not required

A component marked with the E mark may be carried and operated in Germany and Austria without a special entry in the vehicle documents - so neither a parts certificate (TGA) nor an EG-BE / ABE is required, as long as the area of use specified in the approval is adhered to. In Germany, the recognition of the E-mark is regulated in Section 21a of the StVZO.

Your TÜV company will help you with your concerns for safety.

An ECE approval mark always consists of a circle with a capital “E” and one or two digits. Followed by a number / letter combination. The number after the “E” tells you in which country the approval took place.

EEC approval mark

The EEC test mark is attached to components that, it may be hard to believe, have been approved on the basis of an EEC directive. Their approval is also not restricted nationally.
The number after the “e” indicates the country in which the vehicle was approved.

The EEC approval mark always consists of a square with a lowercase e, and the country code in the square, consisting of one or two digits (possibly also a country code for countries that do not have a country code) and a combination of digits behind the circle.
