The eFTI Regulation is set to transform freight transport within the EU by replacing paper-based documentation with electronic data in all transport modes. This digital shift will apply to road, rail, inland waterway, and air transport.
It will reduce administrative burdens for operators and authorities, enhance data security, and ensure compliance with EU and national freight regulations. Authorities in all EU Member States will be required to accept electronic data when shared by businesses via eFTIcompliant platforms.
