Whether or not a refund can be obtained also for the period between 2005 and 2018 largely depends on how the competent courts will rule on the question of the statute of limitations for these claims. TollReclaim will provide regular information on this issue on the present website as well as personally to our customers.

2. Why do I get a refund?

On October 28, 2020, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) ruled that the calculation of the German truck toll is illegal. Among other things, the court found that the costs for traffic police should not have been included in the truck toll. These amount to several hundred million euros per year, which were wrongly allocated to all companies liable for the toll. The overpaid amounts can now be reclaimed.

3. Who will receive a refund?

According to current knowledge, all companies that have paid the German truck toll from 2018 until today are entitled to claim a refund. However, potentially the claim may even be enforceable beginning with the introduction of the toll in 2005. This depends on how the competent courts will rule on the issue of the statute of limitations.
