As of April 1, Belgium will raise its toll for trucks over 3.5 tonnes. As a result, a fee of up to € 0,20 per kilometre will be required on major motorways. The rate is dependent on the weight of the truck and emission class. We are currently preparing rates that will apply as of April 1. The toll applies to all shipments going to, from or through Belgium.
Trucks will be required to be equipped with an OBU (On Board Unit), meaning that every truck will be registered. It is therefore not possible to avoid the toll by driving solely on secondary roads. The standard penalty for failing to comply with the requirements applicable in Belgium (including the compulsory registration) amounts to one thousands euros.
TLN has requested to postpone the start date because of the many technical problems that are currently still present.
