Abstract
The Commission Regulation (EU) No 445/2011 introduced requirements on certification system for Entities in Charge of Maintenance (ECM). It contains requirements regarding the need to create and, more importantly, verify by the certifying body of the Maintenance Management System (MMS). It assumes that only Entities in Charge of Maintenance for freight wagons will be subject to certification. With the development of legislation on the safety of rail transport the extension of ECM certification began. The article presents the proposal of the European Union Agency for Railways to extend the scope of Commission Regulation (EU) No. 445/2011 and discusses the most important changes.
