1 Scope
Vehicle parts, purchase parts, and/or original parts of the Volkswagen Group must be marked with
the corresponding logos according to this standard, provided that this is technically feasible.
NOTE 1:The logos shown in this document are merely informative in nature. The size details in
the designations are examples. Dimensions and proportional data necessary for marking parts are
available as data sets in the KVS. The appropriate Design Engineering department will provide
these data to the manufacturers.
2 Requirements
The respective logos must be applied in the largest size allowed by the component in terms of their
font size/logo size. Where they are positioned is discretionary. For an exception to this rule, see
section 5.
During the design engineering phase/drawing creation, it is crucial to check in which Group brand
the vehicle part will be used, so that the appropriate logo can be chosen. If a final decision cannot
be made at that point in time, then the Group logos "Volkswagen AG" or "VW AG" must be given
priority. The use of Group logos is intended to prevent follow-up costs that would arise due to a
later change from an individual brand logo to a Group logo.
NOTE 2:This approach applies particularly to vehicle parts that are not directly in the customer's
field of view; see also section 5 for this.

The marking must be designed to be durable and legible throughout the duration of the part's serv
ice life. It must be applied on the parts exclusively using suitable manufacturing methods such as
embossing, etching, electric discharge machining; see VW 10500.
Downstream processing steps must not adversely affect the legibility of the marking.
NOTE 3:Preferably, the marking will be applied by incorporating it into the manufacturing tool.
Stickers (labels), tags, and the like must not be used for part marking as per this standard.
3 Regulation
The appropriate Design Engineering department specifies in the drawing whether or not a part
must be marked by means of the standardized text macro (VW 01014, ID no. NO-E2).
The logo type must always be indicated in the drawing. If this specification is missing, type "Z"
must be used.
Deviations from the requirement to mark parts may be specified by the appropriate Design Engi
neering department, only in consultation with the Product Definition, Quality Assurance, and Stand
ards departments.
Parts that cannot be marked for design reasons such as notch sensitivity (high notch stresses) or
lack of space, are exempt from the marking requirement.
If there is a lack of space, the logo marking takes precedence over the country of origin
(VW 10550), the manufacturer's code (VW 10540-1), the part number (DIN 1451-4), the date mark
ing (VW 10560), and the material marking as per German Institute for Standardization standard
(VDA 260); see VW 10500.
Which logos are to be applied to vehicle parts of different brands must be determined as shown in
table 1 according to their use in vehicles of the different brands.
The application method cast, punched, etched, embossed, stamped, electric-discharge-ma
chined, raised, or recessed must be specified in the drawing. If this specification is missing, the
choice is left to the manufacturer.
