The eFTI Regulation Draft Is Out

🚛 A Major Leap for Logistics Digitalisation in Europe: The eFTI Regulation Draft Is Out

The European Commission has just released the draft implementing regulation on the functional requirements for eFTI (electronic Freight Transport Information) platforms, and it’s now open for public feedback via the “Have Your Say” portal: 🔗 Submit your feedback before July 8, 2025

This is not just another regulatory update. It is a defining moment for the future of freight transport in the EU, and a strong signal for logistics companies to start preparing now.

🔍 What’s in the Draft Regulation?

This draft forms the backbone of the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2020/1056, which mandates the use of eFTI platforms by August 2027. The new draft regulation:

• Defines mandatory functional specifications that all certified eFTI platforms must follow.
• Seeks to establish a unified digital language for freight data exchange, improving efficiency and reducing paperwork.
• Enables authorities across the EU to access and verify transport documents electronically — securely, quickly, and reliably.

This effort aims to reduce administrative burden, enhance transparency, and boost digital interoperability in European logistics.

💡 Why This Matters for the Industry

This initiative is more than a compliance requirement — it is a game changer. For logistics professionals, fleet operators, and transport managers, it represents a critical push toward digitisation, sustainability, and operational innovation.

Companies that adapt early will enjoy:

• Faster border crossing and checks
• Lower costs through digital workflows
• Better integration across supply chain partners
• Real-time tracking and enhanced planning capabilities
