The European Union (EU) has reached a provisional agreement on a proposed new Regulation on EU cross-border parcel delivery services. The European Commission’s aim is to make pricing and tariffs more transparent and give national regulators increased monitoring rights over the cross-border parcel delivery market.
This reform is part of the EU’s Digital Single Market (DSM) strategy designed to accelerate the creation of a digital single market across the EU. The DSM strategy is having a significant impact on sectors such as e-commerce, media and entertainment, telecoms and the provision of online services.
The Commission considers that efficient operation of the cross-border parcel delivery market is essential to ensure that the entire EU-wide e-commerce system operates effectively.
