The Vehicle Assessment Signatory Scheme (VASS) is a scheme for certification of modified, imported and individually constructed vehicles in Victoria. It replaces the former Recognised Engineering Signatory (RES) scheme. A single sheet, the VASS Approval Certificate, replaces the Engineer's Report used in the previous scheme To obtain an Approval Certificate you will need to engage the services of a VASS Signatory authorised to certify the class of modification or vehicle for which you need the certificate. A VASS Signatory who provides an Approval Certificate must: Personally inspect the vehicle Ensure all work, including any modification, is correctly carried out: and, Certify that the vehicle complies with the applicable standards. The VicRoads copy of the Approval Certificate must be presented, together with the vehicle, at a VicRoads Registration and Licensing Office for registration, or to have it's description changed. If the vehicle is to be registered, the usual supporting documentation will need to be supplied. Note: VicRoads cannot accept an Approval Certificate more than 30 days after the date of issue. However, this time period can be extended for modified Heavy Vehicles, provided the vehicle has not travelled more than 1000km after the certificate is issued.
