La Commission Portuaire flamande formule des recommandations sur les contrôles transfrontaliers Les membres de la Commission portuaire flamande (CPF) constatent régulièrement que diverses situations et problèmes concernant les contrôles frontaliers surgissent dans les ports maritimes flamands, qui subissent de la sorte un désavantage concurrentiel par rapport aux ports étrangers.
