Prevention


The Vehicle Crime Reduction Organizations in The Netherlands (AVc), South Africa (BAC) and Australia (NMVTRC) have developed a “multi-national reference for the development of national standards for microdot-based whole of vehicle marking”. The document specifies minimum performance criteria for microdots and their associated distribution procedures. The joint VCRO objective is to facilitate a consistent approach to the development of microdot-based vehicle marking systems that are designed to facilitate forensic investigation of vehicle theft and thereby impede the activities of criminals attempting to deal in stolen vehicles or components.

Secondly, a document was written with frequently asked questions and their answers, in order to deal with misconceptions with regard to the use of microdots for effective parts marking. Download the document

Meanwhile, the EU Commission is preparing an assessment of the impact of the introduction of mandatory EPM on newly manufactured and imported registered vehicles within the EU.
