TL;DR
- The Ministry of Transport updated the National Registry of Freight Dispatch (RNDC) with a new resolution.
- The changes aim to unify payment agreements and reduce logistical costs.
- New regulations introduce traceability in contracts and payments for greater verifiability and control.
- The update seeks to formalize small transporters and recognize the entire route, including empty return trips.
- The RNDC will be strengthened as a control and monitoring tool, moving towards a more transparent information model.
- Increased contracting requirements and mandatory load manifests, even for municipal trips, aim to reduce informality.
- This measure is part of a broader public policy strategy and incorporates feedback from the transport sector.
- The update aligns with Decree 1017 of 2025, which also sought to balance the transport chain.
