The Danish pilot is organised around control situations — what actually happens when an inspector needs freight information — and works up to them in three deliberate steps. A desktop exercise was completed on 15 June 2026, walking the relevant roles, systems and control situations through on paper, while additional follow-up pilots are now being considered.
Four use cases were selected because they are where enforcement is hardest and the data most valuable: cabotage, dangerous goods, trailer swap and waste. The pilot concentrates on business-to-authority procedures — data exchange, access to data, identifier searches and how data is presented to competent authorities and economic operators — rather than on platform development.
One element sets this pilot apart: it explicitly explores how eFTI data exchange might interact with, and potentially connect to, the Peppol network, an infrastructure already widely used in the Nordics. That question is pursued alongside Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian actors in the Nordic cooperation; Denmark, together with Sweden, intends to collaborate through the Finnish eFTI Gate and expects Gate-enabled testing once contractual arrangements are complete.
