Exclamation Conformity certificate

Does anybody know where I can get the conformity certificate from the Jaguar?
The Greek authorities require this certificate so they can issue me the car plates.
Thanks

Check your Owner's Handbook.

I know the various Conformity and Type Approval Certificates are in the UK version but I don't have access to my PC to check if this applies to handbooks for other markets.

I checked the Owner's Handbook and there is nothing there...

I have just talked with someone in Jaguar and he told me that they may not be able to issue me this certificate as the car was produced based on the Canadian standards...
They will let me know tomorrow...
God bless me...

If you somehow find anything related to this, I will appreciate your feedback!
Thanks for the quick reply anyway!

Sounds pretty expensive, but these folks can track it down for you if you can’t find it elsewhere:

The question is: If Jaguar cannot issue me this certificate, how can these guys issue me this?
If the car doesn't meet the European specifications it means that nobody can issue me this certificate.
Am I wrong?

Probably doesn’t help you, but my US car has a sticker on the driver’s door frame stating the car meets all applicable US specs, with manufacture date, VIN, etc.

That is a good question. When you asked Jag, what reason did they give for not providing the cert?

They haven't told me yet, they will check it and let me know soon...
They said that the cars been produced for the US market have different specifications and therefore may not meet the European standards. It doesn't mean that they are "worse" that the Europeans, it only means that they are different and this certifications assures that the cars meet the EU standards...
So, I guess the site you sent me cannot "solve" the problem

Thanks anyway!

Ahh...not an EU car. The car will likely need a conversion before it can be certified.

If the car was produced for the Canadian market it will have a Jaguar-issued VIN sticker on the driver's door opening with the Transport Canada stamp printed on it.- and the emissions equipment and other items will be quite different from those for European and Middle East cars:
