Germany's Federal Ministry of Transport has confirmed that the extension of the B licence to motorhomes up to 4.25 tonnes will not apply before 26 November 2029. The EU directive requires member states to adopt national rules by 26 November 2028, but they may only apply from the later date. The Caravaning Industry Association (CIVD) criticises the long transition period, noting that national early adoption would create legal uncertainty when driving in other EU countries. A supplementary training of at least seven hours, including practical driving safety content, is under discussion.
