European countries concerned

The new EU regulation results in differential effects in April 2013 within the European DACHSER-countries

Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal and Slovakia will have an high increasing part of unsecured freight

Denmark, Poland and Czech Republik currently have an 100% screening which will partially decrease because of the implementation of the secured supply chain

Great Britain, France and Switzerland already have an official approval of the shippers => therefore no change
