As far as I know, there is no European type certificate for any of the GP Gliders. I was unable to find neither GP Gliders nor the parent company Peszke as an aircraft manufacturer when looking in the EASA certification database. No TCDS - Type Certificate Data Sheet - available. Some or all of these gliders may fall under the (recently modified) ultralight category, where no certification is mandatory.

Type certificates aren't required to import a glider in the US. I had my ASH 26E
in March 1995, licensed in the Experimental category; it was about two years later
that they received German certification. Ditto for the ASW 27, also a new glider
at the time. Other countries have different rules, but gliders are produced, sold,
and delivered before receiving certification.
