T-Systems International GmbH, Daimler AG and DKV EURO SERVICE GmbH + Co KG plan to create a joint venture to work together to develop and deliver European Electronic Toll Services (EETS) across the whole of Europe. The aim is to sign up sales partners to market the EETS services and to process the tolls for customers. The intended collaboration is subject to approval by the competition authorities.
The technical basis of the planned services will be a transnationally usable on-board unit, which is designed to allow the Europe-wide billing of toll charges using just one single device.
The market launch is scheduled for 2018 in the following countries:
• Belgium • Germany • France • Austria • Poland
The next planned step is to include the following countries, if possible, at the time of market launch or at any rate soon afterwards:
• Italy • Portugal • Spain • Hungary
The offered services are intended to cover all current and future toll roads as well as relevant tunnels and bridges using one single on-board unit.
