Notes
Logistics sector — standard VAT for freight transport. Transport companies require a transport authorisation for each vehicle over 3.5t. The CMR (International Consignment Note) is mandatory for cross-border transport. Chain of custody traceability is key for resolving loss or damage incidents. The fleet module manages periodic maintenance and MOT for vehicles.
