As of January 1, 2026, Iceland has introduced a road usage fee for all vehicles, including motorhomes. It replaces the abolished fuel tax and is charged as a fixed-rate fee for tourists, based on vehicle weight and length of stay. For a motorhome up to 3.5 tonnes, the fee ranges from €94.52 for 10 days to €165.41 for 21 days or more.

Traveling Iceland's Highlands in a 4x4 motorhome: routes and regulations

Iceland's Highlands, covering about 40% of the country, are accessible only in summer via unpaved F-roads, which legally require a 4x4 vehicle. Tourists rent 4x4 motorhomes to explore this region, as standard camper vans are not permitted on these tracks. Key routes include the F35 (Kjölur) and the more challenging F26 (Sprengisandur), leading to destinations like Landmannalaugar and Þórsmörk.
