According to RTL.lu the Customs Administration will start specific controls of vans used in international transport from 1 August 2026.
From 1 July 2026, an important change was applied at European level to commercial vehicles with a gross vehicle weight between 2.5 and 3.5 tonnes used in international road haulage.
From 1 July 2026, these vehicles must be equipped with a latest-generation intelligent tachograph (G2V2) and comply with driving and rest time regulations in international transport, but only if the transport is carried out on behalf of another party.
These obligations are based on Regulations (EC) No 561/2006(1) on the tachograph requirement and (EU) No 165/2014(2) on driving and rest time regulations.
