Sažetak
The current transit procedure in railway transport that is carried out on the basis of the Customs Act [1] of the Republic of Croatia is applied only up to the border, i. e. the issued documents and guarantees are valid only up to the border, and by joining the Convention on Common transit procedure, i. e. integration of the Republic of Croatia in the European Union, the Republic of Croatia will also have to implement the regulations and rules of Simplified transit procedure valid in each of the thirty member states. In international railway traffic, the transport of goods is regulated by the Convention concerning International Carriage by Rail – COTIF [2] and usage of the CIM waybill (Contract for International Carriage of Goods by Rail). If the goods are transported in Simplified transit procedure, the formalities regarding the transport of goods performed by rail carriers using the international waybill CIM will be significantly simplified and accelerated. In principle there are no delays due to customs on the borders when crossing the EU borders and borders of the Convention member states, contributing greatly to the acceleration of the transport of goods, reduction of waiting costs and paperwork, as well as influence on the schedule reliability.
