Tachograph deadlines

Be smart, beat the new tachograph deadlines

Stuck at the border? Not for us, thanks! Savvy international transport companies are already replacing tachographs ahead of EU legislation coming into force this year and next. Make sure you do too—don’t wait!

By December 2024, all analogue and digital tachographs on trucks over 3.5 tons used for international transport must be replaced by the Smart Tachograph Version 2. By August 2025, the same applies to all Version 1 Smart Tachographs (G2V1).

Smart Tachograph Version 2 reduces delays

Manuel and Maria Castro, owners of TRANSTAMBRE S.L Coruna, Spain, are already making the switch. Greater data security is one advantage they see. Another is no lost time due to police roadside checks —the Version 2 can be read remotely.

Joaquim Vidal, Fleet Manager at Calsina Carré Girona, Spain, is also getting ahead of the game and names automatic crossborder updates as one of the main benefits for his drivers.

I believe that beyond our internal management to replace all tachographs on time, we will depend on authorized workshops and tachograph suppliers being able to provide the service to all hauliers who request it."
