The IRU is the world road transport organisation, which upholds the interests of road transport operators to ensure economic growth and prosperity via the sustainable mobility of people and goods by road worldwide.
With a truly global vision, the IRU acts effectively both at international and also national level through its network of national road transport associations.
The IRU works in true Public Private Partnership with the UNECE in implementing the UN Customs Convention on the International Transport of Goods under Cover of TIR Carnets (TIR Convention), and implementing this and other key UN trade facilitation instruments, such as the Harmonization Convention, is the most efficient way to achieve the TFA’s objectives.
Having had a long cooperation with the WTO, the IRU actively supports the rapid implementation of the Trade Facilitation Agreement on road transport and trade related matters.
