For whom
The truck toll applies to Dutch and foreign trucks. These are vehicles of type N2 and N3. They are made to carry goods and have a technical maximum weight of more than 3,500 kg.
Truck types N2 and N3
- N2:
Trucks with a technical maximum weight of more than 3,500 kg and up to 12,000 kg. - N3:
Trucks with a technical maximum weight of 12,000 kg or more.
You can find the vehicle type by doing a licence plate check at RDW. The type is shown under the letter 'J'. (For vehicles with a Dutch license plate only.)
What is technical maximum weight?
The manufacturer sets the technical maximum weight of the vehicle. This weight is important for the rules the truck must follow when it is first registered.
Check for dispensations and exemptions
Is your truck 40 years or older? Then you may be able to get a dispensation. Trucks from the police or fire department can also get a dispensation. Some trucks may be exempt. For example: electric trucks and vans up to 4,250 kg. Read more on our Dispensation and Exemption page.
