Payment of heavy goods vehicle levy (HGV) for use of UK roads from August 2023
The HGV levy is suspended until 31 July 2023 because of coronavirus (COVID-19).
From 1 August 2023, drivers resp. hauliers need to pay the levy before entering the UK if the HGV:
- is not registered in the UK
- weighs more than 12,000kg
Accordingly, both British and international drivers or transporters must register and pay the levy before entering the United Kingdom, otherwise penalties and fines may be imposed.
