EU member states had to transpose the European Electronic Communications Code (EECC) into national law by 21 December 2020.
At that deadline, four EU member states (Denmark, Finland, Greece and Hungary), as well as the UK, had fully transposed the EECC.
Infringement proceedings
The European Commission announced the second stage of infringements proceedings, in the form of a reasoned opinion, against 18 member states on 21 September 2021.
The Commission had in February 2021 already sent letters of formal notice to 24 member states, the first stage of an infringement proceeding, asking member states to adopt and notify their national transposition measures.
Transposition status
Cullen International's benchmark tracks member states' progress, including details on:
- current status (where "transposed" indicates that a member state has completed the adoption of their EECC transposition laws);
- treatment of legislation in national parliaments; and
- final adoption and entry into force.
