Exempted vehicles

The legislator explicitly provides for a number of categories that are exempt from kilometer charges. Only the following vehicles are concerned:

• Vehicles used exclusively by the army, civil defense, fire department and police which are recognizable as such.
• Vehicles especially and exclusively equipped for medical purposes and recognizable as such.
• Vehicles of the agricultural, horticultural or forestry type using public roads in Belgium in a limited way and used exclusively for agriculture, horticulture, fish farming and forestry.

All other vehicles are NOT eligible for an exemption.
