With the European decision (Directive 2020/1057) and the progressive implementation of the Mobility Package, customers based in EU are no longer obliged to nominate a representative in the European countries which had already put in place a national legislation for the posting of drivers. Therefore, the SIPSI website for France will no longer be accessible (EXCEPT for hauliers registered in a country outside of the European Union) and the role of Eurovat as a representative in France will cease for EU based customers.
From now on, the transport companies registered in a Member state of the European Union have to:
– use a dedicated web portal in order to comply with the new harmonized regulations concerning the posting of drivers in the sector of the European road transportation : the INTERNAL MARKET INFORMATION SYSTEM or IMI, available in all European languages.
– file a posting declaration when the drivers they employ are posted in another EU Member state for the performance of a transport contract. This declaration has to be done in the IMI Web Portal.

EUROVAT remains at your customers’ disposal during the transition period in the following weeks if they may have contacts with French authorities.
