Fines for New Truck Toll Announced

The truck toll will take effect on July 1, 2026. The applicable fines were recently announced. During the first half of the year, the fine amounts will be halved. A maximum of one fine may be imposed per 24-hour period. These fines can be avoided by having a working toll device and a contract with a service provider.

This decision was made to allow businesses time to adjust to the new rules. Starting July 1, a fee will be charged for every kilometer driven. The revenue will be used, among other things, to fund the Zero-Emission Trucks Purchase Subsidy Program (AanZET).

After July 1, the motor vehicle tax for trucks weighing up to 12,000 kilograms will be eliminated, and the Eurovignette will be phased out. The motor vehicle tax for trucks weighing 12,000 kilograms or more will be reduced. For more information, read our previous article about the new truck tax.
