On Sunday, October 12, the EU will implement the Entry/Exit System (EES), which requires non-EU citizens to register biometrically when crossing borders within the Schengen area. Logistics UK emphasizes the need for a gradual rollout to avoid disruptions in freight traffic, particularly at the Short Straits crossings, where a delay could cost the UK economy £400 million annually. The organization is urging the UK government to collaborate with France on a remote registration app to ease the process and is also calling for an exemption for professional drivers from the 90/180 day rule to support trade continuity.
