The e-CMR Protocol of 20 February 2008
The CMR Convention (1956) also makes it mandatory to use a paper consignment note, unless countries have joined the convention’s e-protocol (2008).
The e-protocol stipulates that it is possible to use an electronic consignment note for international road haulage.
If two bordering countries have ratified the e-protocol, road haulage is possible between them by carrying an accompanying electronic consignment note. As soon as the electronic consignment note meets the requirements of the e-protocol, it is regarded as equivalent to the paper version and has the same evidentiary value and the same effects.

Project statusUN/CEFACT has finalized and published a standard message and business process document on e-CMR. The results are available at:
http://www.unece.org/cefact/brs/brs_index.html
51Biz.lu4
• Business Requirements Specification (BRS) for Electronic Road Consignment Note (e-CMR) based on the high-level MMT BRS
• Subset exchange syntax-neutral message structures for e-CMR
• XML schemas of the e-CMR messages

CMR – BRS - Current process Flow
1Prepares and coordinates CMR transpot contract:red : copy for the consignorblue : copy for the consignee (this copy accompanies the goods throughout the entire transport movement)green: copy for the carrier
Consignor
2Carrier
On taking over the goods, checks the accuracy of the data in the paper CMR (quantity of packages, condition of goods, their packaging and etc). Signs the CMR note (with reservations noted, if needed)
3Consignee
Consignee acknowledges the receipt of goods after verification.
CMR is prima facie evidence of the making of the contract of carriage, the conditions of the contract and the receipt of the goods by the carrier.CMR is obligatory document for international road transport in countries, which adopted CMR Convention.

UN/CEFACT e-CMR Project Deliverables
51Biz.lu9
Each object in the eCMR structure has a unique Dictionary Entry Name plus a business short name for readability.
Based upon the UN/CEFACT Core Component Library (CCL), the MultiModal Transport Reference Data Model (MMT) and the Supply Chain Reference Data Model (SCRDM).
e-CMR model: CMR Convention data taken intoaccount
51Biz.lu10
e-CMR model: Transit Declaration in Eurasian Customs Union and European Customs Union are taken into account

UN/CEFACT e-CMR Road Consignment Note
1. Enables data interoperability between shippers, forwarders, carriers and government agencies
2. Based on multimodal foundation from day one
3. Core components internationally harmonized with IMO FAL eCompendium and Pipeline Data Exchange Standard (PDES) and aligned with WCO and EU Customs Data Model and IATA CargoXML
4. Aligned with Geneva e-CMR 2008 protocol addition
5. Global Standard with UN/CEFACT data governance
6. Developed by team of independent experts

eFTI Electronic Freight Transport Information
eFTI is part of the “Third Mobility Package”, proposed by the European Commissionq B2G: obligation of EU MS to
accept electronic transport documents
q In a machine readable data format
q harmonized across Europe
q EU MS must ensure the interoperability of IT systems
OpportunityUse UN/CEFACT Multi Modal Transport Reference Model MMT as basis for eFTI data sets for B2G data sharing

Electronic Road Consignment Note (e-CMR)Follow-up project - phase 2)
Potential scope
1. Global specification for “road transport data set” = consignment note
+ events related to movement of transport means (for track & trace)
2. Full integration with MMT Data Pipeline (Events, ETA planning)
3. Sub-set for B2G data sharing
4. Dangerous goods declarations for road transport
5. Piece-level track & trace (requested by GS1 and IATA)
6. Digital signature process (requested by FR)
7. Bi-directional alignment with IATA One Record and EU DTLF
Semantic Models
8. Standardized API (Application Programming Interface)
