Belgium's three regions announced a new road tax, effective May 1, 2027, which will also apply to foreign drivers transiting the country. This move aims to ensure everyone using Belgian roads contributes to their maintenance, a topic debated for years as the country currently has no highway tolls. Drivers will need to register their vehicles and pay the tax, with costs varying based on emissions and day passes available, while non-compliance will result in a €70 fine.
