The road to compliance:

Preparing for Spain’s and the EU’s digital freight mandates

Is your supply chain ready for the upcoming mandates?

Tuesday 19 May 2026, 14:00-15:00 CEST

 

Logistics is hitting a digital tipping point

As of 5 October 2026, the Spanish Sustainable Mobility Law makes the Documento de Control Administrativo (DCA) mandatory for all road freight. Less than a year later, the entire EU follows suit with mandatory eFTI acceptance.

For shippers, carriers and logistics service providers, this shift is a legal mandate, not just a tech upgrade. Join our session with Dr. David Saive, Legal Product Owner at the Open Logistics Foundation and Marc van Der Noort, Senior Business Consultant, Trimble to learn how these regulations impact all parties in the supply chain. Get expert answers to your toughest questions and ensure your supply chain is compliant, efficient and ready for 2027.

From regulation to real-world results: why attend? 

  • Operational cost savings: Learn how you could eliminate thousands of administrative hours, and discover why the EU projects €1 billion annual industry savings by adopting eCMR.

  • Paperless transformation blueprint: Gain a clear roadmap for eCMR rollout, from technical integration to carrier network change management.

  • Future-proof your supply chain: Turn legal mandates into competitive gains using eFTI-standardized data for simpler audits and verified CSRD (Scope 3) emissions reporting.

  • Unified transport orchestration: Master the management of international transports via eCMR alongside local Spanish movements with DCA, ensuring seamless visibility and compliance across your entire supply chain. 

  • Live Q&A: Ask David and Marc your specific questions about cross-border corridors, Spanish cabotage and technical integration.
