When a Member State has transposed the 4th Railway Package, by default the functionality of submitting a Part A/B will be disabled.

However, we can provide the possibility on a case by case basis for missing certificates issued before the transposition date of your Member State. In this case, please contact ERADIS team.

When Part A is revoked then Part B is automatically deactivated.

However, please remember that revoking Part A certificate of an international railway undertaking means that Part B certificates issued by the other National Safety Authorities to the same railway undertaking will also be automatically deactivated. Due to this fact it is recommended to contact these National Safety Authorities and explain the purpose of the revocation in advance to revocation of Part A certificate in the ERADIS.

In order to have both certificates with the status “Revoked” then please revoke first Part B and then Part A. When ERADIS administrators publish the revocation both Part A & B will be displayed as “Revoked”.

“Shunting only” means that the RU does not provide any passenger / freight services. If the RU provides all services including shunting then you do not need to declare this separately. Shunting is implicitly included in passenger / freight services.

When the certificate has expired, a new certificate has to be issued under the new name of the company. If the certificate is still valid and only the name of the company has changed then you may just amend the previous certificate by updating the name. However, all these processes should be clearly defined in your NSA’s internal procedure.

Updating the name of an international railway undertaking might have an impact on all certificates the railway undertaking has. In some cases, issuing of a single safety certificate will be required which means that a railway undertaking will need to demonstrate compliance with the new SMS requirements.
