Introduction
Historical background
From 2004 to 2019, two main European legislative acts were ruling the regulated interoperable tolling
service in Europe, the so-called European Electronic Tolling Service (EETS):
1. the Directive 2004/52/EC of the European Parliament and European Council of the 29th of April,
[28]
2004, concerning the interoperability of tolling systems within the Community ;
2. the Decision of the European Commission of the 6th of October 2009 regarding the definition of the
[29]
European tolling service and its technical aspects (2009/750/EC) .
The main objective of the above acts was to set up the conditions to ensure compatibility and
interoperability of the different electronic tolling systems in the European Union (EU). The acts apply to
road tolling, as well as tunnels, bridges and ferries.
Key aspects of the legislation were:
1. creation of a European Electronic Tolling Service (EETS);
2. obligation for all new tolling systems (installed after the 1st of January 2007) to support the
technologies listed in the legislation, i.e. 5,8 GHz dedicated short-range communication (DSRC),
global navigation satellite system (GNSS, including GPS and GALILEO) and Global System for Mobile
communications-General Packet Radio Service (GSM-GPRS); systems may be DSRC-based or GNSS-
based (autonomous tolling systems) schemes;
3. obligation for all toll service providers to provide their users with the possibility to obtain on-board
devices that support all technologies above;
4. possibility for users to have a single contract with a service provider that gives access to all electronic
tolling systems in Europe;
5. obligation for all toll chargers to give not-discriminatory access to their tolling domains for all
European toll service providers.
Tuning the EETS service definition: the new legislation
After the introduction of the European legislation, the development of the EETS went on slower than
expected, due to commercial, procedural and legislative aspects that were not initially considered.
[44]
Some pilots and European projects (among all the REETS – Regional EETS ) had shown that a number
of standards ought to added to and become part of the European EETS legislation, in order to achieve a
more solid interoperable framework.
While, with lengthy procedures, a core of EETS was beginning to take shape, with Service Providers being
accredited in a number of Toll Domains and registered in their respective member state of the EU, the
European Commission decided that it was time to revise (recast in EU legal parlance) the Directive. The
revision process, a rather lengthy process, eventually led to a recast Directive (EU) 2019/520 of the 19th
[30]
of March 2019 . The new Directive gives more flexibility in the on-board equipment (OBE) (possibility
for light weight vehicles to mount a DSRC-only device, possibility of a “scattered” device that possibly
uses already existing components in the vehicle, …), more flexibility for accreditation and registration as
European Toll Service Provider, provides for cross-border enforcement, and empowers the EU
Commission with the ability of adopting Delegated and Implementing Acts to refine the technical contents
of the “new” EETS.
New main characteristics of the new EETS legislation are:
• addition of cross-border enforcement;
• separation of Light Weight Vehicles and Heavy Weight Vehicles;
• clarification of responsibilities of the EETS providers;
• clarification of responsibilities of the Toll Chargers;
• removal of market entry barriers in order to promote competition;
• addition of automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) technologies.
[31]
The Commission adopted two Acts, one named Commission Implementing Regulation , the second one
[32]
named Commission Delegated Regulation , that were adopted at the end of 2019, to further define the
technical and procedural characteristics of the EETS. These Acts, among others, name and prescribe a
number of CEN standards to be used for the EETS.
This document examines the requirements expressed in the new European legislation for EETS
(including mandated CEN/ISO standards) and maps these requirements to the current CEN EFC
standards, with the aim to identify gaps in the standardized offer (standards to be developed/enhanced)
and also perceived inconsistencies and weaknesses in the current version of the European legislation. A
roadmap is then proposed to fill the discovered gaps, whilst noting that it is not CEN's role to develop a
turnkey solution for the EETS.
1 Scope
This document provides an EETS gap analysis with the aim to identify the need for new or updated
[29], [31], [32]
standards to provide an enhanced support of the recast of the EU EETS legislation .

5 EETS legislation and relevant standards
5.1 Introduction
This clause is to list the standards currently referenced in the EETS legislation. Standards are divided
into requirement and test standards. The information contained in this clause forms the basis for the gap
analysis in Clause 6.
The EETS legislation lists requirements for all actors in the European Tolling Service, including the Toll
Chargers, the Toll Service Providers, and the certification entities (e.g. Notified Bodies). In the
requirement statements, a number of International standards are cited. The following clauses list the
standards exactly as they are referred to in the EETS legislation, independent of their latest status and
versions. This type of information is then needed in Clause 6 for the gap analysis. It is noteworthy that
not all EETS required functionalities are covered by international standards, nor all existing standards
covering EETS functionalities are quoted in the EETS legislation. This will be dealt with in Clause 6, as
part of the Gap analysis.
Conformance testing is dealt with in the Annex III of the Implementing Act, which states that conformity
assessment can be done by either one of the following two procedures as defined by Decision No
[45]
768/2008/EC :
a) internal production control (module A);
b) EU type examination (Module B), followed by conformity to type based on internal production
control.
Test standards for all requirement standards are cited in the EU legislation and may be used to evaluate
conformity. Its usage, however, is not mandatory.
5.2 Standards supporting the EETS definition
5.2.1 Generalities
The EETS is defined by requirements (technical specifications) and tests (certification specifications)
functionalities.
As far as technical specifications are involved, the EETS foresees three types of electronic tolling, namely
based on dedicated short-range communication (DSRC), autonomous, and automatic number plate
recognition (ANPR) technologies.
Standards applying to both requirements and tests functionalities, and mentioned in the legislation, are
listed in the following clauses.
5.2.2 Requirement standards
For DSRC-based tolling systems tolling transactions, the EETS considers two alternative requirement
standards, as shown in Figure 1:
• EN 15509:2014, that can be used in all EETS systems in Europe;
• ETSI ES 200 674-1 V2.4.1, that may alternatively be used in Italy.

Figure 1 — Standards supporting tolling transactions in DSRC systems
For checking conformity of OBUs and enhancing location coordinates in autonomous tolling domains, the
EETS considers two requirement standards, as shown in Figure 2:
• EN ISO 12813:2015 to check conformity and functioning of OBE devices respectively
EN ISO 12813:2019 to retrieve vehicle classification parameters from OBE devices
• EN ISO 13141:2014 to enhance location information
Figure 2 — Standards supporting CCC and LAC DSRC interactions in autonomous tolling systems
For all types of tolling systems, the EETS considers the standard CEN/TS 16986:2016 and CEN/TS
16986:2016/AC:2017 to exchange tolling related information between toll chargers and toll service
providers, as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3 — Standard supporting back-office communication for all types of tolling systems
Parameters to be used for vehicle classification for tolling are defined in EN ISO 14906.
5.2.3 Test standards
As mentioned in 5.1, test standards are not mandatory. However, the following test standards may be
applied for conformity evaluation of implementation to the EETS interface requirements:
• EN 15876-1:2016 to evaluate implementation for conformity to EN 15509:2014 (“CEN DSRC tolling
transactions”)
• ETSI TS 102 708 to evaluate implementation for conformity to ES 200 674-1 (“ETSI DSRC tolling
transactions”)
• EN ISO 13143-1:2016 to evaluate implementation for conformity ISO 12813:2015 (“compliance
checking transactions in autonomous tolling schemes”)
• EN ISO 13140-1:2016 to evaluation implementation for conformity to ISO 13141:2015 (“localisation
augmentation in autonomous tolling schemes”)
No test standard for back office interface is mentioned, although the CEN/TS 17154 (parts 1 and 2) was
published on June 6, 2019.
6 Gap analysis
6.1 Technical elements of the EETS legislation
6.1.1 Introduction
Requirements and regulations in the EETS legislation can be organized by different criteria. As the main
scope of this document is to address technical standards, the following clauses introduce the technical
elements of the EETS legislation by technology domains, plus one category of general requirements.
Technology domains in the EETS refer to three main categories:
(a) Front end technologies i.e. those technologies used in the interactions between vehicles and fixed
equipment for the tolling categories mentioned in the EETS legislation: DSRC-, GNSS and ANPR-based
schemes.
(b) Back end technologies, i.e. those technologies used for the transfer of tolling related information
between the back-end systems of toll chargers and toll service providers.
(c) Testing and certification technologies, i.e. those technologies used to verify and certify
interoperability constituents.
The tables contained in the following clauses show the mapping between EETS requirements and
standards. For each requirement, together with its source in the legislation, one or more standards
fulfilling the requirement (if any) are cited, as well as an indication of where and how that standard is
quoted in the same EETS legislation. It is important to note that:
1. standards that support a given requirement are cited undated: this means that the latest version of
the standard is referred to;
2. references in the EETS legislation (when present) are always dated: it may thus happen that a
requirement that is satisfied by the latest version of a given standard is not in fact satisfied by the
version cited in the legislation.
The presence, as well as the suitability, of a referenced standard in the legislation, or the lack of a standard
that fulfils a given requirement are listed and analysed in detail in 6.2.
Requirements listed in the tables in the following subclauses:
1. are sequentially numbered (column 1);
2. are spelled-out from the relevant legislation document (column 2);
3. are referred to in the relevant legislation document (column 3);
4. are referred to their implementation in the same legislation, by citing their reference (column 4) and
the referred standard document in the legislation, if any (column 5);
5. are satisfied by an existing ISO/ETSI/CEN standard, independent of whether that standard is cited in
the legislation or not (column 6).
It may happen that the same requirement applies for different categories of technological domains: in
this case, that requirement is repeated in all relevant clauses.
6.1.2 General requirements
General requirements listed in the following Table 1 are valid for all technology domains, and mainly
relate to vehicle classification parameters and their possible retrieval by means of a DSRC interaction.

Directive 2019/520 , together with its related implementing regulation and delegated regulation ,
require two standards to perform DSRC interactions in autonomous tolling based toll domains, namely,
the EN ISO 12813 for compliance checking and the EN ISO 13141 for location augmentation. In addition
to that, requirements on security, which can be fulfilled by EN ISO 19299, and requirements on OBE
configuration, which can be fulfilled by CEN ISO/TS 21719, are specified. Table 3 lists the requirements
for autonomous tolling-based toll domains.

6.1.5 Front end requirements: ANPR tolling
[30] [31]
Directive 2019/520 , together with its related implementing regulation and delegated regulation
[32]
, allow ANPR technology to be used for tolling. No international standards at the moment support
ANPR tolling. In addition to that, requirements on security, which can be fulfilled by EN ISO 19299, are
specified. Table 4 lists the requirements for ANPR based toll domains.

6.1.6 Back end requirements
[30] [31]
Directive 2019/520 , together with its related implementing regulation and delegated regulation
[32]
, requires CEN/TS 16986 to specify back office interactions between toll charger and service provider.
Noteworthy is that CEN/TS 16986 is currently under revision, and will be upgraded to EN. So, when
quoting the standard fulfilling the requirement, “CEN 16986” is used, while in reference to legislation,
“CEN/TS 16986” is used. In addition to that, requirements on security, which can be fulfilled by EN
ISO 19299, are specified. Table 5 lists the requirements for back office interactions.

6.1.7 Testing and certification requirements
Although test standards are not to be mandatorily used during certification processes, most Notified
Bodies use the conformance test standards developed by standards organisations as part of their
procedures. The EU legislation cites a number of those standards, which are reported in the following
