Business travel in Europe makes a hugely positive contribution to the European economy, and although the COVID pandemic was a significant set back, the sector is recovering fast.
BT4Europe believes the sector’s economic impact can be further boosted by streamlining the regulatory framework.
The Position Paper, developed by BT4Europe’s Economic Impact Working Group, outlines how the sectors’ economic impact could be boosted, and urges EU regulators to streamline the regulatory framework to encourage sustainable and resilient growth of the sector and accommodate and facilitate future trends.

The Position Paper, developed by BT4Europe’s Digital Transformation Working Group, urges EU regulators to ensure the forthcoming EU initiatives on passenger rights and multimodal digital mobility services (MDMS) to promote the full digital transformation of business travel.
BT4Europe is also urging the EU to make use of the digital transformation to exempt business travel from the bureaucratic A1 cross-border social security form.

European businesses demand that their business travel be conducted sustainably.
The position paper highlights the fact that to properly tackle the challenge of greening business travel, in line with the European Green Deal, we first need to fully measure and assess the amount of CO2 emissions caused by business travel, which is currently not possible.
The paper calls for urgent and significant steps to be taken to improve access to streamlined, accurate and comparable data on the CO2 impact of business travel.
