What is cabotage in EU road transport?

Cabotage lets a foreign EU carrier run domestic legs after an international delivery — currently capped (three operations in seven days, with a cooling-off period) under the EU Mobility Package. It shapes how Baltic and CEE fleets plan Western European rotations.

In freight operations

Cabotage limits affect pricing: a truck that cannot legally take a domestic backload prices the international leg differently.

Rules evolve; the operational takeaway is that lane pricing and routing carry regulatory constraints a quoting system should not obscure.
