Important Information for Carriers Regarding Travel Through Poland!
2024 11 15
As of November 1, 2024, new requirements for registering vehicle journeys in Poland have come into force. From now on, all carriers not from the European Union, the European Economic Area countries, or Switzerland traveling to, from, or through Polish territory must register their journeys in the customs system. Starting January 1, 2025, this requirement will also apply to all European Union carriers conducting transport operations between Poland and non-EU countries, or vice versa. If a carrier from the EU transports goods exclusively within the European Union, they are not required to register in the system when passing through Poland.
Important: Trip information for carriers must be registered before entering Polish territory, and the trip must be activated in the E-Toll application. Failure to comply may result in a fine of up to PLN 12,000 (~€2,800).
If goods are transported to or from third countries through Poland, registration must be carried out in all cases, delivery or collection of goods, and even for the transportation of goods within Polish territory. This requirement applies even when the vehicle is traveling empty (valid only for carriers from third countries).
To properly declare a trip through Poland, you must register each route in the Polish customs system. The service fee is (€20 per declared route). The following documents are required for this process:
- A completed power of attorney confirming that the intermediary has the right to register the trip in the RMPD system on behalf of the carrier. The form will be provided by an employee of Bunasta during the execution of the order.
- A international consignment note for the transportation of goods CMR. If a CMR is not available (e.g., the vehicle is traveling empty), you must specify the loading location and provide any document that confirms the purpose of the trip to or through Poland (e.g., a transport order).
- A permit for transportation in EU countries (ECMT).
- The planned route of travel through countries.
- The place of entry into Poland and/or the place of departure from Poland. If unloading takes place in Poland, the point of entry into Poland is required. If transiting through Poland, the points of entry into and exit from Poland are required. If loading takes place in Poland, the point of exit from Poland is required.
- The current location of the vehicle (preferably GPS coordinates).
- The ID of the E-Toll mobile application.
- The driver’s phone number.
- Copies of the vehicle registration certificates for both the lorry and the trailer.
If you have the documents for all planned routes, you can order the necessary RMPD codes for all routes in a single request.
Bunasta can complete route registration on your behalf, ensuring your trip proceeds smoothly and without delays.
