individual vehicle approval certificates and the certificates of conformity in paper 
format.

Implementing Regulation ( EU) 2020/683, should be modified to take into account the 
new requirements introduced by Regulation (EU) 2019/2144 of the European 
Parliament and of the Council3 and the regulatory acts adopted pursuant to it.

under Regulation (EU) 2019/2144 .
