Who needs TAGRA

Does this apply
to you?

EU law requires transport operators and certain professional drivers to regularly download, evaluate and archive tachograph data. Here's who is affected.

Fleet operators & companies
TAGRA 1 / 2 / 4 / 6 / MAX

You are affected if your company operates vehicles subject to EU tachograph regulations — including trucks, buses and (from July 2026) certain vans.

  • International road haulage operators
  • Domestic hauliers with vehicles over 3.5 t
  • Bus and coach operators
  • Van operators in international transport (from July 2026, vehicles 2.5–3.5 t)
  • Transport managers responsible for driver compliance
  • Logistics companies managing driver records

Professional drivers
TAGRA Trucker

You are affected if you drive professionally and are responsible for your own driver card data. TAGRA Trucker handles driver card download & archiving for a single driver.

  • Employed drivers who manage their own card archiving
  • Drivers who want to check their own hours before inspections
  • Drivers who change employers and want to keep their records
Self-employed / owner-operator? You are both the driver AND the transport undertaking, so you must download driver card data and vehicle unit (tachograph) data. TAGRA Trucker alone is not enough — see TAGRA 1 (one vehicle) which covers both.
  • Van drivers in international transport (from July 2026) — employed drivers can use TAGRA Trucker for personal card copies; self-employed van operators need TAGRA 1 (card & vehicle).

New from July 2026

Vans in international transport

From 1 July 2026, the obligation to install a digital tachograph and regularly download and evaluate data extends to light commercial vehicles of 2.5–3.5 t used in international transport.

This affects a large number of operators and drivers who were previously exempt. If you operate vans across borders — you need to be ready now.

TAGRA is fully prepared for this obligation. Both the fleet and driver versions support the new requirements from day one.

Who is affected from July 2026
  • Vehicles 2.5–3.5 t in international transport
  • Operators based in EU member states
  • Self-employed van drivers crossing borders
  • Purely domestic transport — not affected
