On September 1, 2025, a powerful coalition spearheaded by ICC Netherlands, and including key banks, various businesses, the Port of Rotterdam, and several prominent trade associations, officially presented a whitepaper to the Dutch Parliament. This pivotal document urgently advocates for the swift adoption of the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Transferable Records (MLETR) within the Netherlands.

This initiative arrives at an exceptionally critical juncture for the nation. With Dutch trade valued at approximately €1.6 trillion, the move to digitalize trade documentation through MLETR promises to unlock significant efficiencies and reduce complexities in a robust and vital economic sector. The collective call from these influential industry stakeholders underscores the imperative need to modernize trade practices and secure the Netherlands’ competitive edge on the global stage.
