It is not necessary to register for NOTIF-IT in order to search for national railway rules or draft national railway rules. They are available for the public without a user-account.

Representatives of Member States have to request an account in NOTIF-IT in order to upload files and manage the content of the notifications. If you are a representative of a Member State (e.g. Ministry of Transportation, National Railway Safety Authority) and would like to have an account or receive further information on the use of NOTIF-IT, please contact us by e-mail.
