Road transport services in United Europe


Road transport services in United Europe
Today when we talk about Europe, we often refer to the phenomenon of immigration, in which Italy has often been left alone to manage a phenomenon that has assumed truly unsustainable proportions for a single nation. But talking about Europe today also means talking about uniformity of services in the transport of goods from one state to another. We refer to road transport of goods between Community countries by a road haulage company based in a European country.
For this case there is a specific discipline, which is contained in the Community Regulation no. 3118 of 25 October 1993, which was amended in 2002 and provides in Articles 1 and 12 that road transport of goods can only be carried out on a temporary basis, provided that the truck or any other heavy goods transporting the goods does not rise or fall from the train or ferry, because in such cases the service is interrupted by that haulage company, because another one takes over.
Currently, transportation can only be performed by companies established in the following member states of the European Union or the European Economic Area and, in particular, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Norway, the Netherlands, Portugal, the United Kingdom (until 2019 when Brexit is completed), Sweden and Slovenia.
For companies established in the Republic of San Marino a different regulation is envisaged.
Community goods transport may be carried out exclusively by companies holding a Community license, whose certified true copy must always be available in case of checks.
This community discipline was implemented in Italy through a Ministerial Decree of 18 March 2005 which dictated the following provisions:
a) Each vehicle may carry out a maximum of 30 days, whether consecutive or not, within a period of 60 consecutive days;
b) Each vehicle must leave the Italian territory or, in any case, be absent from it at least once every month;
c) The company has the obligation to keep on board each vehicle, during transport, the corresponding transport report booklet, which is a supplementary document of the Community license and its possession is essential for the performance of service and completed at the event, directly by the driver according to the instructions given in the booklet.
Regulation 3118/93 provides for fairly severe penalties against non-resident carriers who have committed infringements not only on the national regulation, but also on national or EU transport regulations.
