Prepare for UK VCA eCoC submission

VCA publishes a UK-specific IVI schema and provides its own submission portal and API. Check the current VCA documentation before selecting your UK route.

Confirm the route before uploading

For a SignECOC submission, ask support to confirm the supported UK channel, your organisation's access and the intended environment. Keep the manufacturer-prepared XML, signing certificate and account permissions aligned. A successful test must not be presented as a production submission. SignECOC does not issue type approvals or create your XML.

Before you continue

  • Confirm that your file was prepared for the UK destination.
  • Resolve validation and signature issues before sending.
  • Record the channel, environment, reference and final result.

Does an EU-route result also prove UK acceptance?

No. In SignECOC, treat the UK destination as a separate submission route. Confirm its requirements and permissions before use, and rely on the result returned for that specific submission.
