In this quarterly update, we offer an overview of the new rules applicable to international road transport. This allows you to easily get an overview of the complicated rules in the Mobility Package and the specific national rules applicable in Denmark. We have also listed the dates for when the different rules will take effect and, as you can see, many rules have already come into force, while several are on the way, so it is about time to get updated and get the business adjusted.

At NJORD, we completed the merger with Brockstedt-Kaalund law firm on 1 November 2020. Thus, NJORD will have a significant presence in Jutland, with offices in both Silkeborg and Aarhus.

However, we have reached the goal, and we look forward to providing an even more comprehensive range of assistance to our clients, now that we have more than 260 employees in Denmark and the Baltics.

- Happy reading!
