For the Government of the Republic of Slovenia, Marjan Dvornik, (s) For the Government of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Hans Rudolf van der Valk, (s) Vlada Republike Slovenije in Vlada Kraljevine Nizozemske, v nadaljnjem besedilu pogodbenici, sta se v želji, da bi v interesu krepitve gospodarskih odnosov pospeševali razvoj cestnega prevoza blaga in potnikov iz, v in tranzitno čez njuni ozemlji, dogovorili naslednje:

1. Določbe tega sporazuma bodo veljale za mednarodni cestni prevoz blaga in potnikov za plačilo, najem ali za lastni račun med pogodbenima stranema, tranzitno čez njuni ozemlji, v ali iz tretjih držav, ter za prevoz blaga in potnikov po ozemlju ene ali druge pogodbene strani, v nadaljnjem besedilu kabotaža, ki ga bodo prevozniki opravljali z vozili, ki so opredeljena v 2. členu. 2. Pogodbeni strani bosta zagotovili pravice in obveznosti iz sporazumov, sklenjenih med Evropsko skupnostjo in Republiko Slovenijo. Pogodbena stran, ki je država članica Evropske skupnosti, bo ta sporazum uporabljala v skladu s svojimi obveznostmi iz pogodb, s katerimi je bila ustanovljena Evropska skupnost, ki bodo ustrezno dopolnjene.

V tem sporazumu posamezni izrazi pomenijo naslednje: 1. izraz “prevoznik” pomeni osebo (vključno s pravno osebo), ki je bila ustanovljena v eni ali drugi pogodbenici in lahko v državi svojega sedeža opravlja cestni prevoz blaga ali potnikov za najem, plačilo ali za lastni račun, v skladu z veljavnimi državnimi zakoni in predpisi; 2. izraz “vozilo” pomeni motorno vozilo ali skupino vozil, od katerih je vsaj motorno vozilo registrirano v eni ali drugi pogodbenici in ki se uporablja ter je opremljeno izključno za prevoz blaga oziroma se uporablja za prevoz potnikov z avtobusom; 3. izraz “kabotaža” pomeni prevozne storitve, ki jih na ozemlju ene pogodbenice opravlja prevoznik, ki ima sedež v drugi pogodbenici; 4. izraz “prevoz” ali “storitev” pomeni pot natovorjenih ali raztovorjenih vozil po cesti, tudi če vozilo, prikolica ali polprikolica na določenem odseku potovanja potuje po železnici ali po vodi.

1. Vsaka pogodbenica lahko dovoli, da prevoznik, ki ima sedež na ozemlju druge pogodbenice, opravlja prevoz blaga ali potnikov: a) med katerim koli krajem na njenem ozemlju in katerim koli krajem zunaj tega ozemlja, ter b) tranzitno čez njeno ozemlje, če ima dovoljenje za opravljanje prevoza, razen če se mešana komisija ne dogovori drugače, ki ga izdajo pristojni organi ali druge pooblaščene organizacije vsake pogodbene strani. 2. V nobenem primeru pa dovoljenje ni potrebno pri naslednjih vrstah prevoza oziroma pri praznih vožnjah, ki so povezane s tovrstnimi prevozi: – prevoz za lastni račun; – prevoz pošte kot javna storitev; – prevoz poškodovanih ali pokvarjenih vozil; – prevoz blaga v motornih vozilih, katerih dovoljena teža tovora skupaj s prikolicami ne presega 6 ton oziroma pri katerih dovoljena teža komercialnega tovora skupaj s tovorom prikolic ne presega 3,5 tone; – prevoz zdravniškega blaga in opreme ali drugega blaga v sili, zlasti v primeru naravnih katastrof. 3. Prevoznik ne more opravljati kabotaže, če mu pristojni organi ali druge pooblaščene ortganizacije pogodbenice, na ozemlju katere se bo opravljal prevoz, niso dali posebnega dovoljenja.

1. Teže in velikosti vozil morajo biti v skladu z uradno registracijo vozila in ne smejo preseči veljavnih omejitev, ki veljajo v državi gostiteljici. 2. Če teža ali velikost natovorjenega ali raztovorjenega vozila, uporabljenega za prevoz v skladu z določbami tega sporazuma, preseže dovoljeni maksimum na ozemlju druge pogodbenice, je potrebno posebno dovoljenje. 3. Za posebna dovoljenja je treba plačati upravni prispevek za izdajo dovoljenja in opravljanje prevoza.

1. Prevozniki pogodbenice in posadka njihovih vozil morajo, ko so na ozemlju druge pogodbenice, spoštovati veljavne zakone in predpise te države. 2. V primeru kabotaže bo mešana komisija podrobno določila zakone in predpise, ki se uporabljajo v državi gostiteljici. 3. Zakonodaja, omenjena v prejšnjih odstavkih, se bo uporabljala ob enakih pogojih, kot to velja za domače prevoznike, tako da bo izključena vsakršna diskriminacija na podlagi državljanstva ali kraja sedeža oziroma ustanovitve podjetja.

Če prevozniki ene ali druge pogodbenice kršijo določbe tega sporazuma, bo pogodbenica, na ozemlju katere je bila storjena kršitev, ne oziraje se na svoje lastne pravne postopke, uradno opozorila drugo pogodbenico, ki bo ukrepala v skladu s svojimi državnimi zakoni. Pogodbeni strani bosta obvestili druga drugo o sprejetih sankcijah.

1. Vozila, vključno z njihovimi rezervnimi deli, ki opravljajo prevoze v skladu s tem sporazumom, bodo vzajemno oproščena plačila vseh davkov in pristojbin na promet ali posest vozil ter vseh posebnih davkov ali pristojbin na prevozne storitve na ozemlju druge pogodbenice. 2. Vozila ne bodo oproščena davkov na motorna goriva, davka na dodatno vrednost prevoznih sredstev in cestnin. 3. Goriva v običajnih rezervoarjih vozila ter maziva, ki so v vozilu in služijo edino za delovanje vozil, bodo vzajemno oproščena carinskih in drugih dajatev ter plačil.

1. Pristojni organi obeh pogodbenic bodo usklajevali vsa vprašanja glede uresničevanja in uporabe tega sporazuma. 2. V skladu s tem bosta pogodbenici ustanovili mešano komisijo. 3. Mešana komisija se bo redno sestajala na zahtevo ene ali druge pogodbene strani in jo bodo sestavljali predstavniki pristojnih organov pogodbenih strani, ki bodo lahko povabili predstavnike cestnih prevoznikov.

Dnevni red sestanka bo predstavila pogodbena stran – gostiteljica, in sicer vsaj dva tedna pred datumom sestanka. Sestanki se bodo zaključevali z zapisnikom, ki ga bosta podpisala vodji delegacij pogodbenih strani, ki sta v skladu z nacionalno zakonodajo pooblaščena podpisati ta zapisnik. 4. V skladu s 1. in 3. točko 3. člena bo mešana komisija odločala o vrsti in številu dovoljenj ter o pogojih dostopa do trga in vprašanjih, ki se nanašajo na trg delovne sile. Ne glede na 2. točko 3. člena bo mešana komisija lahko razširila vrste prevoznih storitev, za katere dovoljenja niso potrebna. 5. Mešana komisija si bo zlasti prizadevala za: – usklajen razvoj prometa med državama ob hkratnem upoštevanju med drugim tudi ekoloških vidikov; – koordinacija med strategijami cestnega prevoza, prevozno zakonodajo in njenim uresničevanjem tako ene kot druge pogodbene strani na državni in mednarodni ravni; – možne rešitve, ki naj jih sprejmejo državni organi, če nastopijo problemi, zlasti fiskalni, socialni, carinski in ekološki, vključno z zadevami javnega reda; – izmenjavo ustreznih informacij; – metodologijo določanja tež in velikosti; – pospeševanje sodelovanja med prevoznimi podjetji in institucijami; – pospeševanje multimodalnega prevoza, vključno z vprašanji prodora na trg.

Vsaka sprememba tega sporazuma, o kateri se bosta pogodbenici dogovorili, bo začela veljati na dan, ko se bosta pogodbenici pisno obvestili, da so izpolnjeni pogoji po njihovi veljavni zakonodaji.

1. Ta sporazum se bo začasno uporabljal od datuma podpisa in bo začel veljati na prvi dan drugega meseca po datumu, ko se pogodbenici pisno obvestita, da so v njunih državah izpolnjene zahteve, potrebne za uveljavitev sporazuma. 2. Sporazum bo veljal eno leto. Po izteku tega roka se bo veljavnost molče iz leta v leto podaljševala, kolikor ena ali druga pogodbenica ne bo šest mesecev pred datumom podaljšanja drugi pogodbenici sporočila, da zanjo preneha veljati.

Kar se tiče Kraljevine Nizozemske, bo ta sporazum veljal le za ozemlje kraljevine v Evropi. V dokaz, da se strinjata z navedenimi določbami, sta pooblaščena predstavnika podpisala ta sporazum.
