The Rail Vehicle Accessibility (Non-Interoperable Rail System) Regulations 2010[1] (commonly known as RVAR 2010) is a statutory instrument in the United Kingdom. It aims to set standards designed to improve accessibility for disabled people on light rail passenger vehicles.

It came into force on 6 April 2010. The instrument exercises powers conferred by the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. It revokes and replaces the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 1998.[2]
