Welcome to EFIP

The European Federation of Inland Ports (EFIP) is the official voice of nearly 200 inland ports in 19 countries of the European Union, Moldova, Switzerland and Ukraine and has an observer member in Egypt.

EFIP highlights and promotes the role of European inland ports as real intermodal nodal points in the transport and logistic chain, combining inland waterway transport with rail,  road, and maritime transport.
