Truck tolls in the Netherlands: a practical guide for transport companies in 2026
Across Europe, truck tolling is shifting toward a clear principle: you pay for what you use, and less if you operate more efficiently. Since July 2026, the Netherlands has introduced kilometre-based truck tolls, aligning with systems already established in Germany, Austria, and Belgium. Before July, it has been one of the few European markets without distance-based tolling on most of its motorways.For transport companies, this marks an important evolution. Truck toll costs are no longer a fixed administrative expense, but a factor directly linked to how vehicles are operated, creating new opportunities to optimise routes, fleet composition, and overall cost efficiency.
