The Netherlands

There is a national LEZ agreement, that cities may join. All LEZs in the Netherlands have the same emissions requirements. The LEZs currently cover just heavy goods vehicles. The minimum standards are:
  • Until 1 January 2010 minimum standard is Euros 2 and 3 with particulate filter or Euro 4.
  • Between 1 January 2010 and 1 July 2013 minimum standard is less than 8 years
    old and Euro 3 plus filter.
  • After 1 July 2013 the minimum standard is full Euro 4.

Enforced by cameras, and manually until all the cameras are in place.

More detailed information on the Dutch national scheme can be found on our Netherlands page.
