Sažetak
Joining the European Union is the strategic priority for the Republic of Croatia. Croatia has always been part of the European economic region. The success of adaptability of the Croatianindust1y, particularly of Croatian traffic, to the European Union, will greatly depend on the possibility of establishing contractual relations of the economic and traffic branches with the EU. Therefore, this paper considers in more detail the traffic aspects of integration.It is a fact that the EU traffic policy is contained in the Roman Agreement (1957) whose aim was elimination of the barriers for the flows of goods, se1vices and capital, and the integration of the European region. Thus, it requires equal treatment of all the traffic branches and all the carriers, freedom for the activities of transport companies, as well as freedom for these1vice users to choose the transport means and carriers. This naturally requires maximum rationality in fi·eight flows reflected on the financial and commercial business activities of a company. To converge maximally with the European Union is the strategic priority of the Republic of Croatia, and within the Croatian industry this will especially require the adaptation of the Croatian traffic. The basic precondition for the functioning of the traffic system on the European transport market is the compliance with the rules and standards determined by the international conventions.
