Preface
This bulletin identifies those laboratories which are accredited or co-accredited by Euro NCAP
to perform official tests as part of its safety rating programme. The bulletin indicates thosetests which the laboratories can perform for Euro NCAP; they may perform other tests for othercustomers but the results of these will not be recognised by Euro NCAP.
Accredited laboratories can perform tests independently. Co-accredited laboratories canperform the tests only in association with an accredited laboratory. In such cases, Euro NCAPwill liaise with the accredited laboratory, who will ensure that tests are conducted strictly
according to published protocols and ensure all deliverables are to the quality and standards
required by Euro NCAP.
