RID references on the OTIF website

Various parts of RID require the COTIF Member States to notify particular information to the OTIF Secretariat so that the latter can inform the other COTIF Member States. Where RID does not already specifically require that such information be published on the OTIF website, the OTIF Secretariat generally fulfils its obligation to provide information by publishing the communications that it receives on its website.

Below is a list of points in RID that specify the transmission of information. Clicking on each of the sources takes you to an introductory text and links to the information provided by the various States.

As RID is revised every two years, this list may be extended to include other sources.
