SENT and international transport

When SENT applies to international transport, which sensitive goods it covers and what must be done on the domestic leg of the route through Poland.

SENT, the system under the Act of 9 March 2017, monitors the carriage of sensitive goods within or through the territory of Poland. It also covers the domestic leg of international transport when the goods are sensitive, for example certain oils, denatured alcohol or dried tobacco. It requires a notification in PUESC, a SENT number and vehicle geolocation.
