NIS2
NIS2: secure data sharing in the supply chain
The NIS2 directive obliges organizations in crucial sectors, including logistics and transport, to strengthen their digital resilience. NIS2 is expected to take effect in the second quarter of 2026.
For supply chains, this means that data must be shared securely, reliably, and in a controlled manner, not only within the organization but throughout the entire chain!
NIS2 sets requirements for:
- Cyber risk management
- Integrity, availability, and confidentiality of data
- Supply chain responsibility towards partners
- Monitoring, logging, and incident reporting
e-CMR as a practical implementation of NIS2
The electronic consignment note (e-CMR) offers a secure method of data sharing that directly meets NIS2 requirements for data integrity and authenticity, controlled access, transparency and traceability at transfer points, and increased supply chain resilience.

Sustainability legislation
Mandatory digital transport documents coming in Spain from Q4 2026
The Spanish Sustainable Mobility Act marks a fundamental shift in the way transport and logistics are organized and controlled.
A crucial element is the introduction of the Documento de Control Administrativo (DCA) as a mandatory digital control document for freight transport. This makes Spain the first EU country to legally require digital transport documentation for government inspections. e-CMR is explicitly accepted as a valid and future-proof solution.
Digital transport documents will become the standard for inspections in Spain starting in Q4. We are preparing to facilitate this for our clients. Want to learn more? Schedule an appointment!
E-FTI
Electronic Freight Transport Information
With the e-FTI (Electronic Freight Transport Information) Regulation, the European Union is taking an important step towards fully digital freight transport information. The regulation obliges Member States to accept electronic transport data for monitoring and enforcement, thus phasing out paper documents.
What does this mean in practice?
- Governments must accept digital freight information
- Data is shared via standardized, certified e-FTI platforms
- Reduced administrative burden and improved data quality throughout the supply chain
Expected timeline:
2026: Technical standards, IT systems, and platform certification
July 9, 2027: Full mandatory for all EU Member States
For logistics providers, this means that investing in digital solutions, such as e-CMR, not only increases efficiency but also prepares them for future legislation and regulations.
