+
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">No, you don't need a Eurovignette to drive on Luxembourg roads unless you're operating a heavy goods vehicle - passenger cars, motorcycles, and light vehicles under 12 tonnes use all Luxembourg motorways completely free of charge.</p>
  
−
'''For Cars and Light Vehicles:''' No tolls required! Luxembourg motorways are completely '''free''' for all passenger cars, motorcycles, campervans, and light commercial vehicles up to 12 tonnes.

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">Key Reality:</strong> Only heavy goods vehicles (HGV) with gross vehicle weight of 12 tonnes or more require a Eurovignette to use Luxembourg's 165 km motorway network. Cars, vans, buses, and coaches drive toll-free.</p>

'''For Heavy Vehicles:''' Trucks and commercial vehicles over 12 tonnes gross vehicle weight must purchase a '''Eurovignette''' to use motorways in Luxembourg, Netherlands, and Sweden.
+
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">2025 Update:</strong> Luxembourg introduced higher Eurovignette rates on January 1, 2025, with CO2-based pricing structure from March 25, 2025. Denmark withdrew from the Eurovignette system, leaving Luxembourg, Netherlands, and Sweden as the three remaining countries.</p>

Key Reality: Only heavy goods vehicles (HGV) with gross vehicle weight of 12 tonnes or more require a Eurovignette to use Luxembourg's 165 km motorway network. Cars, vans, buses, and coaches drive toll-free.

2025 Update: Luxembourg introduced higher Eurovignette rates on January 1, 2025, with CO2-based pricing structure from March 25, 2025. Denmark withdrew from the Eurovignette system, leaving Luxembourg, Netherlands, and Sweden as the three remaining countries.
