Amendments to IMI and Single Digital Gateway on transparency harmonisation
Decision
The European Parliament adopted an amending measure concerning the Regulations on the Internal Market Information System (IMI) and on the Single Digital Gateway, as listed among texts adopted in Strasbourg on 27 November 2025. The published agenda entry identifies this adoption without providing a vote breakdown or additional formal reference on the same page.
What Changes
The text amends the existing Regulations on IMI and the Single Digital Gateway specifically in relation to harmonisation requirements on transparency, indicating adjustments to the legal framework that governs how these systems handle transparency-related obligations. The description on the adopted-texts list limits itself to the scope of harmonisation requirements on transparency without detailing specific legal provisions or implementation measures.
Who Is Affected
The measure directly concerns the IMI and the Single Digital Gateway and therefore affects stakeholders and users operating within the EU internal market who rely on those systems for cross-border administrative cooperation and transparency-related exchanges.
