[Updated on 05.10.2023] We updated again our breakdown table with new toll rates planned to be changed in December 2023. These new toll rates has not yet received an official announcement. Therefore, the information on this table is not binding and is subject to change according to upcoming announcements from the German authorities.
[Updated on 14.09.2023] The new toll rates are planned to be changed in December 2023 and July 2024 (together with toll for over 3.5t vehicles). Therefore, we updated our breakdown table with the new values and percentage changes.
What will change to the toll rates in Germany starting December 01, 2023?
With effect from December 1, 2023, the German Ministry of Transport has proposed a new toll charges system including a new partial tax rate for CO2 emissions related to road transport, as per the federal government's "Third Amendment to Road Toll Regulations" programme. The Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMDV) plans to increase the road tolls for large cargo vehicles by €200 per tonne as part of an agreement with the ruling coalition.
Right now, transportation companies travelling to or through Germany have to pay the tolls for infrastructure tax, noise tax and air pollution tax. With the new toll charges system, they will also have to pay additionally for CO2 emissions tax. This could result in an increase of 40% to 83% in toll cost (see comparison table below) for road freight companies, especially those having elderly vehicles.
Additionally, vehicles over 3.5t will also need to pay for toll starting July 01, 2024. Same toll system will be applied with all partials (infrastructure, noise pollution, air pollution, and the new CO2 emissions).
Here is a breakdown of all the new toll charges that will be in place starting in 2024.
