Response from the competent authority: 'Reply from the Ministry of Infrastructure
  and Spatial Planning: we would like to inform you that we do not agree with the
  initiative you have received on the STOPbirokraciji.si portal. We justify this on
  the grounds that the petitioner misunderstands the procedure on the vehicle, which
  has to be carried out in the Republic of Slovenia on a vehicle acquired from one
  of the Member States of the European Union. According to the Motor Vehicles Act
  (Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia, No 106/10), when a vehicle is acquired
  from another Member State of the European Union, it is the vehicle identification
  and technical condition assessment procedure that must be carried out in the Republic
  of Slovenia by a professional organisation, not the vehicle type-approval procedure.
  Vehicle identification is, according to Article 21(1) of that Act, the procedure
  by which the identity of a vehicle and its basic technical data are established
  by means of the documents and databases on vehicles attached to it. The assessment
  of the technical condition of a vehicle is, in accordance with Article 21(2) of
  the said Act, the procedure for the visual verification of its integrity and its
  ability to drive safely in road traffic or to work safely in agricultural and forestry
  work. This shall also include a check that the vehicle has not been modified in
  contravention of the regulations and the manufacturer''s instructions. However,
  according to Article 12 of the said Act, the approval of a vehicle is the procedure
  whereby the approval authority determines whether a type of vehicle, a type of part
  of a vehicle or a type of protective device meets the prescribed requirements and,
  if it does, issues an approval certificate. An application for approval may be submitted
  only by the manufacturer of a vehicle or of a component of a vehicle or of a protective
  device. It follows from the above that in the Republic of Slovenia, following the
  acquisition of a vehicle from another Member State of the European Union, there
  is no requirement for the re-approval of the vehicle, but only the identification
  and assessment of the technical condition of the vehicle once it has been described.'
