I doubt that "Fork Grps" would be certified by the concerned government agencies in many markets since it allow the forklift driver to lift a load on the forks tips and thereby extending the loadcenter (from std 500/600 mm).
I would guess that the forklift would require a new capacity plate and instructions how to use it safely.
To lift load on fork tips is a normal, but not approved or safe, practice.
