Expand a country and choose the next step. The four practical profiles share seven questions; their interpretations remain provisional.
Scope: Existing trial and delivery rules + bill adopted on 16 September 2026
Targeted source review:
Existing provisions use the review of 7 September 2026. The supplement of 22 September 2026 checks the adopted text of print 1329 and the parliamentary process. Parliament adopted the bill on 16 September 2026. Proposed commencement is 1 December 2026. The new framework is identified in the answers as an adopted bill. Individual permits and the complete implementing framework remain outside this profile.
Scope: Autonomous vehicle in an approved area
Targeted source review:
Compared with the original snapshot, the alternative of European type approval in the current § 1e(1), point 2, is clarified. Permanent supervision during testing remains distinct from ordinary autonomous operation. The relationship between the current StVG and AFGBV procedural requirements must be resolved for an individual application; this comparison does not treat it as settled.
Scope: Testing + automated passenger transport system
Targeted source review:
The testing regime was checked in the consolidated text as of 7 September 2026, including the 2020 amendment. The operational branch is limited to passenger transport. The current text of R3152-3 was confirmed directly on Légifrance. This review concerns specific provisions; freight transport, full civil liability and all implementing requirements remain outside its scope.
Scope: Testing with a driver + driverless pilot + APS
Targeted source review:
The transitional nature of the framework is retained. Driverless pilots, testing with a driver and passenger service permits are distinguished. Earlier guidance describing planned APS commencement is read against the adopted SI 2026/437 and 439. Individual VSOs, specific permits and full civil liability remain outside the review.
These records do not have the same practical profile or comparable coverage as the four countries above. EU / UNECE is a supranational framework.
From an intended activity to the approval, operational and liability rules that apply.
Nine stages from safety engineering to incident response, and where the law changes hands.
Thirteen interfaces between regimes, and the friction each one produces.
The thirty bodies that make, interpret and enforce these rules.
Seven regulatory questions read across UNECE, EU and Slovak law.
The wall
From vehicle approval to real-world deployment. 76 instruments and standards across 12 regulatory pillars. Each entry states its own date and review status. Each entry identifies an instrument and links to its published source details and official documents where available.
The PDF will include entries matching the filters above, the applied filters and sources. A4 format.
Legal status describes the instrument at the stated date. Review status describes the recorded ROAT check. Neither label is an individual operating permission.

A source detail in preparation does not determine the legal status of the instrument.
