Additional protocol to the convention on the contract for the international carriage of goods by road (CMR) concerning the electronic consignment note has been entered into force on 5 June 2011. Protocol has been ratified by numerous countries of European Union thus allowing performing road carriage of goods by road on their territories with the use of electronic consignment note.
