Previous situation – what is going to change
Since 01.01.2016 the inspection staff only requires to have access to documents via a mobile data terminal device. Before the new regulation, carriers were required to carry a printer on board the vehicle, to be able to print the transportation documents at any time.
Additionally, the legislator requires the upload of a content-identical transportation document as a PDF file via a web based TP1-portal on a stationary server (TP1 – Trusted Partner). GBK offers this solution through the GBK-EMTEL® emergency number as a 365/24/7 access.
