Getlink SE is a European public company headquartered in Paris, France, primarily engaged in the management and operation of the Channel Tunnel infrastructure. The company's core mission revolves around facilitating trade and travel between the United Kingdom and continental Europe, with a strong emphasis on low-carbon transport and sustainable mobility.

Getlink operates through several key commercial brands and services. Its flagship subsidiary, Eurotunnel, manages the Channel Tunnel and provides LeShuttle services for passenger vehicles and LeShuttle Freight for trucks, offering a vital link across the Strait. The company also grants passage for high-speed passenger trains, such as Eurostar, and rail freight trains. Beyond tunnel operations, Getlink's portfolio includes Europorte, a leading private rail freight operator in France and Europe; ElecLink, a 1GW electrical interconnector within the Channel Tunnel that balances energy needs between the UK and France; and CIFFCO, a private railway training center. Getlink Customs Services further supports cross-Channel trade by assisting with customs formalities.

Under the leadership of CEO Yann Leriche, Getlink continues to focus on innovation and sustainability. The company reported a 15% increase in revenue for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the previous year, building on stable revenue in 2025 where Eurotunnel and Europorte saw increased contributions. Getlink holds the concession for the Channel Tunnel infrastructure until 2086 and is committed to a target of carbon neutrality by 2050, actively developing smart border technologies to enhance efficiency and environmental performance. Italian infrastructure operator Mundys has increased its stake in Getlink to 19%, with potential to reach 25% equity and 29.9% voting rights, though it has stated no intention to take full control.
