Transport companies from Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, and Bosnia and Herzegovina plan to submit a joint letter to the European Commission. This action is timed with a deadline of August 10th, aiming to compel the Commission to issue a binding decision regarding the restrictions placed on professional drivers within the Schengen area. The initiative involved coordinating with the respective transport associations in the four nations.
These associations will be responsible for delivering the joint letter to relevant authorities, business houses, and transport companies operating within the regions. The overarching goal of this coordinated effort is to apply significant pressure on the European Commission to finalize a definitive, binding ruling on the issue of cross-border professional transport. Nejo Mandić, the president of the Serbian Association for International Transport, indicated that while the transport companies are not currently planning any drastic measures, they anticipate that the European Commission will be compelled to adopt a binding decision by the specified date.
The unified submission of this letter reflects the industry’s collective concern over the ongoing regulatory uncertainty affecting cross-border transport operations. The participation of multiple national transport bodies underscores the widespread nature of the concern among the affected companies.
