A or ''Bescheinigung über Zugverspätung'' ("certificate about train delay") is a documentation of proof issued by a railway company that its scheduled passenger train arrived at a station later than what is stipulated in the company's scheduled timetable. This practice is only prevalent in private and public Japanese railway companies and Germany's Deutsche Bahn,〔(We want to be loved by you... ), Richard Johnson, The Sunday Times, 28 May 2006〕〔(German rail: Comfortable, economical and punctual ), Mohan Murti, Business Line, 30 June 2008〕 where a well-established reputation for its trains' punctuality exists and its passengers take for granted that they always operate on time. Parisian RATP also issues such certificates under the name "bulletin de retard"〔http://parisobs.nouvelobs.com/article/transports/ile-de-france/voyage-entre-les-lignes,3050,page1.html〕 if the delay is greater than 15 minutes. They can be used for example for late admission at university exams.〔(Exam Reglementation at Paris' Sorbonne University )〕 In addition, a few bus companies in Japan have also adopted this practice. The certificate is issued when delays as little as five minutes occur, and even for instances where the delay is caused by circumstances beyond the railway company's control (e.g. foul weather, person under train). Handwritten certificates or printouts given out (generally in 10 × 15 cm strips) by conductors or station staff can be collected by passengers affected by lateness or delay, who can then produce it to their superiors at school or work and considered as a valid reason for reporting late.〔 Major Japanese railway companies such as JR East, Tokyu Corporation and Tokyo Metro have introduced electronic versions of the delay certificates on their websites,〔(東急電鉄、「遅延証明書」をネット発行-JR東と同時開始へ ), シブヤ経済新聞, 19 January 2007〕〔(ホームページで遅延証明書を発行します。 ), JR East Press Release, 5 December 2006〕 which would remain there for a week or less. Affected passengers who were unable to or did not collect the certificate could alternatively access and download it into their mobile phones or computers,〔(JR東、携帯で遅延証明書の閲覧可能に――発生から3日間 ), Nikkei Sangyo Shimbun, 20 June 2008〕 and print them out if necessary. ==References==
