Although many ex's live in Texas, I believe Texas law is similar to other states. Canadian law may be different but until someone can show me in statute where U S state laws require it, I do not think a RVIA sticker is required in the states. Please name the states that require this sticker.
It's a slightly complicated (what isn't?) set of legal requirements but I'll try to simplify it.
Your car or truck has a plate (usually on the drivers door frame) that says it was built in compliance with the FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards).
Your RV (trailer or motorhome) is required to comply with ANSI, NFPA and FMVSS standards with regards to electrical, plumbing, fire safety, etc., etc.
The RVIA basically rolled all of the various statutes into a single set of standards that are geared to RV's.
So to put it more precisely, no, RVIA certification is NOT required, but the underlying ANSI and NFPA standards ARE required but nobody is going to try to get 3 certificates when they can get just 1 that covers them all.
