Is wind pressure considered one of the design criteria for pressure vessels? If there are changes, is it necessary to go through the registration procedures again?
For tower-type containers, wind pressure is one of the design criteria. I’m not sure if by “registration procedures” you mean “informing”?
Changes in wind pressure values indicate that the design conditions have changed; is it necessary to file a report with the safety supervision agency or the boiler inspection office?

Has the installation notification for your device been sent?
Changes in wind pressure values are not a matter of simply submitting a report; instead, recalculation and redesign are required. For towers, this may entail changes in the thickness of the skirt, as well as in the specifications, quantity, and material of the foundation bolts. With the foundation changing, there are many more complications that arise. Of course, if the calculations show nothing is wrong, there is generally no need to file a report. Although wind pressure value is one of the design criteria, it is not a critical factor, and inspection departments generally do not pay attention to it.
If the basic wind pressure value is not greater than 300 Pa, nothing will be affected. Due to regulatory requirements, when the basic wind pressure is less than 300 Pa, it is taken as 300 Pa. If it is greater than 300, the design team should be informed, as the value of the basic wind pressure still has an impact on tall buildings and equipment.
