Logistics ERP for United Kingdom

Domestic freight transport in the UK is regulated by the Traffic Commissioner system, which issues standard and restricted operator licenses for goods vehicles over 3.5 tonnes. Operator licensing requires proof of professional competence through a qualified Transport Manager, financial standing, appropriate vehicle operating centers, and good repute. Drivers must hold Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence) qualification with 35 hours of periodic training every five years. Tachograph regulations require digital tachograph units in most commercial vehicles with driver card management and data download procedures.

The Northern Ireland Protocol creates a unique requirement where goods moving from Great Britain to Northern Ireland must follow customs procedures as if entering the EU single market. The Windsor Framework introduced green and red lanes for goods, with trusted trader arrangements under the UK Internal Market Scheme simplifying requirements for goods remaining in Northern Ireland. Logistics companies operating cross-border between GB and NI must manage these requirements alongside standard domestic and EU customs obligations.
