from a Member State to a third country or vice versa, with or without transit through one or more Member States or third countries,
between third countries with transit through the territory of one or more Member States,
and unladen journeys in connection with such carriage.
In the case of carriage from a Member State to a third country or vice versa, this licence is valid for that part of the journey carried out within the territory of the Community.
