Page 5 Digitalisation – opportunities and objectives

E-transport documents - Introducing electronic CIM – SMGS, both as transport document and customs transit declaration will lead to an increase of volumes carried, due to a significant decreasing transit time instead of using classic waybill. - We estimate 1 to 2 days decrease of the transit time, due to the digital processing of the transport documents.

Digital transformation - Using a digital platform, all participants will have the information in real-time, leading to better business decisions.

Data exchange and security - Digitalisation will lead to better and faster data exchange between TITR partners. - Data security is essential in real-time economy, leading to an increased investments in innovation of this sector.
