- Enhanced Tracking and Transparency: The electronic transport document, or e-CMR, enables real-time tracking of shipments, enhancing transparency and security in logistics. It allows for efficient monitoring of goods’ movement, reduces handling costs, and minimizes administrative delays, thereby optimizing logistics operations.
- Exemptions and Support: Certain groups, including farmers under special VAT regimes and occasional sellers, are exempt from the digital control of goods movement. Companies can streamline the electronic delivery note process through integration with EDICOM, automating data submission to the myDATA platform and ensuring compliance with the new regulations.
