Road Toll in the Netherlands from 2026: What Motorhome Owners Need to Know

A kilometer-based truck toll will be introduced in the Netherlands on July 1, 2026. Motorhomes registered as M1 category vehicles are exempt from this toll, but owners of vehicles over 3.5 tons are advised to pre-register on vrachtwagenheffing.nl/de to avoid erroneous fines. Separately, since the end of 2024, a toll on the A24 (Blankenburgverbinding) near Rotterdam applies to all vehicles, including motorhomes, with payment required within 72 hours.
