Cross-border CCAM Testing

There is not cross border acceptance of permissions.

There are aspirations for doing agreements for mutual recognition between countries regarding the tests neither cross-border ones, more specifically, the trilateral agreement between Austria-Hungary-Slovenia. Apart from that, the Ministry of infrastructure has established a working group that is working on a “smart infrastructure” strategy and Action Plan, which involves also CCAM activities. Cross-border cooperation is being prepared within the group.

Currently there is no project involving cross border CCAM tests.
