SERMI is now live
As of 1st April, new regulations have officially come into force across the UK and Europe, changing how vehicle security information is accessed and used.
This is part of the SERMI scheme which has been introduced to help combat vehicle theft and ensure that only properly verified professionals can carry out sensitive security related work.
Why SERMI Matters
Modern vehicles rely heavily on advanced electronic systems, especially when it comes to keys, immobilisers and onboard security. In the past, access to this information was more widely available. Under the new rules, that access is now restricted.
Only businesses and individuals who have been independently vetted and approved can:
- Access manufacturer level security data
- Program keys and immobilisers
- Carry out certain diagnostic and repair procedures linked to vehicle security
This ensures that critical vehicle information does not fall into the wrong hands.
