Common Transit Convention

The Convention on Common Transit is a treaty between the countries of the European Union and a number of other countries for common procedures for international transit of goods,[1] thus simplifying or eliminating much of the paperwork normally associated with moving goods across international borders.[2]

As of August 2020, the countries of the Convention were the 27 EU member states, the four European Free Trade Association member states, the Republic of North Macedonia, Serbia, and Turkey.[1][3]

The United Kingdom, formerly part of the European Union, will remain part of the Common Transit Convention when the Brexit transition period ends.[4]
