Question

You want to calculate routes including Dutch toll (Netherlands) in your PTV product, or you are unsure whether your current product supports Dutch toll or how to handle the upcoming toll changes in 2026.

Answer

Dutch toll is already available today in the following PTV products:

• PTV xServer 2
• PTV Developer (Routing & Optimization APIs)
• PTV Map and Guide Next Generation/ TLNplanner next generation

⚠️ Important:  To calculate Dutch toll correctly, you must set the calculation date to 01 July 2026 or later. Routes calculated with an earlier date will not include Dutch toll.

For xServer 2 and PTV Developer customers: Set the tollTime parameter in your request to 2026-07-01T00:00:00Z or later to include Dutch toll in the calculation. 

⚠️ IMPORTANT: If you are using the trafficMode and no start time is defined, it will take automatically Monday noon. So especially in this case, the toll starts on Wednesday, 01.07.2026. With no starting time given, the 29th of June is taken into account for calculation. This changes in the following week on monday 6th of July.

For Map and Guide next generation / TLNplanner customers: Ensure that the routing date is set to 01 July 2026 or later so that Dutch toll is applied correctly.

Additional hints

Planned toll reduction (01 September – 31 December 2026): The Dutch government has announced a temporary 20% reduction of toll rates for the period 01 September to 31 December 2026. PTV will reflect this reduction in all supported products. The updated data is planned to be available by 01 August 2026. No action is required from your side — once the data is released, the reduced rates will be applied automatically when your calculation date falls within the above period.
