eFTI readiness
What Hub does with eFTI data today (validation and a list of gaps) and what it does not do.
eFTI is the EU framework for electronic freight transport information (Regulation (EU) 2020/1056). Authorities will read transport data from certified eFTI platforms through eFTI gates.
What Hub does
- Knows which fields eFTI needs.
ecmrhub fieldsmarks every field eFTI requires beyond what issuing a CMR requires (eftiRequired), with code lists and formats. - Validates the data against those formats: codes from their lists, precision of numbers, country codes, the trailer rule.
- Lists the gaps.
ecmrhub drafts checkandecmrhub efti checkreturneftiGaps: the keys of fields eFTI needs and the draft or document does not have. The check runs locally and sends nothing.
ecmrhub efti check <documentId> --json
ecmrhub efti check --data note.json --json{ "ok": true, "errors": {}, "missingRequired": [], "eftiGaps": ["..."] }Gaps do not block issuing a CMR. Tell the user which fields are missing; they decide whether to fill them.
What Hub does not do
- It does not register documents in an eFTI gate and does not send data to authorities.
- It is not a certified eFTI platform. Do not tell users that a document is "eFTI compliant" or "registered"; say that the eFTI data is complete or which fields are missing.
For agents
Never promise eFTI registration, certification or availability to inspectors. Report gaps only.
In build (CLI and dashboard)
ecmrhub efti check and eFTI readiness of documents in the dashboard are part of phase 1. The
field list and the gap check exist today in the shared field definitions used by the SDK.
