Rejected petition: Urgent Concerns - EU Entry/Exit System (EES) and its Impact on UK HGV Drivers

Rejected on

International HGV drivers to express my grave concerns about the implementation of the European Union's new Entry/Exit System (EES), scheduled to come into force on the 12th October 2025.

I urge you to raise this issue with the relevant government departments in the EU and to advocate for a visa-free or exempted travel arrangement for UK professional drivers. Our work is essential for the UK . To avoid putting UK Companies and drivers out of business. While EES may seem like a minor administrative change on the surface, its impact on professional drivers like me will be profound due to the "90/180-day rule."
