Great Britain's commercial road transport and the European Union's Entry/Exit System

6 Aug 2026

Research on road transport between Great Britain and the Schengen area under the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), a digital border system for recording non-EU nationals’ entry and exit.

The study

The study has 2 parts:

  • Part 1: EES operator evidence methodology
  • Part 2: operators’ expectations of EES, including annexes

Part 1 – methodology

Sets out an approach for monitoring and evaluating EES impacts on GB goods and passenger transport operators, covering:

  • potential monitoring and evaluation options
  • key indicators
  • evidence gaps

It also proposes proportionate data collection for future analysis as EES is implemented.

Part 2 – operator expectations

Presents survey and interview findings on operators’ exposure, awareness, preparedness, compliance with the Schengen 90/180-day rule, and expected operational and workforce impacts.

  • operator exposure
  • awareness and preparedness
  • current compliance with the Schengen 90/180-day rule
  • anticipated operational and workforce impacts
