Key points

The single market is essential for the EU economy, supporting 56 million jobs and generating 25% of the EU's GDP.
Non-tariff barriers, such as inconsistent national laws and excessive red tape, disproportionately penalize SMEs.
There is a strong need to improve the recognition of professional qualifications across borders to increase worker mobility.
Digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) should be leveraged to simplify administrative procedures and create a digital single market.
