Article deals with the possibility of practical application of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology into operation of rail freight in relation to the important international projects that may impact on successful implementation of electronic data exchange in international freight transport. Implementation the new and more complex information systems and technologies in the field of rail freight should systematically eliminate these deficiencies and thus strategic insight not only increase the quality of information in transport, but also increase overall competitiveness in the field of rail freight. There are several technologies automatic data collecting and one of them is RFID technology. Compared with other technology the RFID technology offers a higher scanning speed and easier application in the automated systems. The implementation of RFID technology into practice will result in a simplification of technological activities both in border crossing stations, marshalling yards, but also in individual small intermediate station and railway sidings. It also finds application in the administration of consignment and delivery wagon load.
