The law explicitly specifies a number of categories that are exempt from kilometer charges. These are vehicles that are used exclusively by the military, firefighters, police and medical services (and recognizable as such). Tractors for agriculture, forestry and fish farming which drive seldomly on the public road are exempted. In the case of combined vehicles, the toll only applies if the maximum authorized mass of the tractor intended for freight together with the towing vehicle, is over 3.5 tons. Exempt vehicles must apply for and obtain an exemption.

The owners of a vehicle of over 3.5 tons registered in Belgium that falls into one of the exemption categories, must submit an application for exemption to the region where their vehicle is registered.
