Anyone know where I can get a Certificate of Conformity for a 2009 Polaris Sportsman 850 XP? A friend of mine in Sweden needs it.

Thanks,

Thor

 

Not sure I've ever heard of one. I've heard of a CO, or Certificate of Origin. That's the paper that tells where the quad was assembled. Cars and trucks come with them also. Did he say what the certificate was in reference to? IE Conformity to... emissions, greenhouse gases, ????

 

Moose this is what it is

A European COC (Certificate of Conformity) is a declaration of the conformity with the type approval of European Community. The purpose of this document is to ensure the free movement of goods within the European Union, specifically for those goods that are subject to homologation and registration. A COC is a producer’s declaration that the vehicle complies with the given approved type. This document contains information about the vehicle and its producer’s identification, type approval number, technical specifications and other data. The content of a COC is defined by EU regulation (Amendment IX, Regulation 92/53). Vehicles without the EU specification (e.g. vehicle manufactured for the United States or Japanese market) and older vehicles that have not been given the type approval of the EC yet, do not have an existing COC. Similarly, it is not possible to issue a COC for converted vehicles. A COC is only obtainable for automobiles, motorcycles and tractors.

 

It would be my guess the best place to get one would be a European dealer from what you are saying. That said, I don't think you'd be able to get one here in the States for a quad not intended for Europe if I'm reading what you posted correctly.

 

i would say try and ask a dealer over there as well, or call the customs or maybe a broker for help.

 

In Canada, if we import an ATV from the US we have to take it to certified goverment dealer, in our case Canadian Tires will check the unit and get the paperwork started for conformity, It will probably need to be done in the country he lives in, I take it he's importing from the US, telll him to check importing vehicles on their goverment websites

Hi there!
Did you have any luck with the COC-paper?

 

i would say only a polaris dealer could get one or maybe contact polaris directly and ask for one. most likely, you have a better chance through a dealer.
