State income of road taxes
A government’s income source to be able to spend money on infrastructure are road tax incomes. In 2018, the state generated an income on road taxes in the Netherlands of approximately 20.3 billion euros. It is an increase compared to the previous year, and it is forecasted that this will grow to a road tax income of over 20.7 billion euros. From the total government road tax income in 2020, it is estimated that the main sources of income will be generated from petrol excises, motor vehicle taxes and diesel and liquefied petroleum gas excises. Approximately 4.6 billion euros of road taxes are estimated to be petrol excises, whereas 4.4 and four billion euros are motor vehicle taxes and diesel and LPG excises, respectively.
