The ECMT application window opened last week and will close on Friday 20 November.
Time is ticking by so please use this period between now and 20 November to apply.
Late applications will not be accepted.
If developments on negotiations or a contingency measure for haulage access between the UK and EU are likely to mean any changes to the need to apply for an ECMT permit, further guidance will be provided.
