In Germany winter tires are not a legal requirement except in some mountainous areas. These include Bavaria where there is a small fine for not having your winter tires. This can be doubled if your failure to put on winter tires has disrupted the flow of traffic. If the car is responsible for an accident due to not having winter tires then there is an increase to the fine as well as points on your licence. You motor insurance could even be compromised.
In Francethe use of winter tires is not mandatory but sometimes signs indicate that winter tyres are necessary, especially in mountainous areas. Drivers of cars that weigh up to 3.5 tonnes can use spikes from November until the end of March as long as they have a badge which shows they are using spikes. Vehicles with spikes can go at a max of 50 km/h in residential areas and 90 km/h on out of town roads.
In Italy there is no need to wear winter tires or snow chains unless requested to do so by the relevant authorities. If you are using spikes you have to comply with the speed limits of speed limits 90km/h on motorways and 50 km/h on open roads. Even though Italy and France don’t enforce the use of winter tires, if you are travelling through the Alps you should use them.
In Austria the use of winter tires is not mandatory but all season tires are also considered as long as they have the “M + S” (mud and snow) mark. According to the law passenger cars winter tires must be fitted to all wheels on cars with a maximum weight of 3.5 tonnes between November 1 and April 15 (any accidents between this period by cars not fitted with winter tires will have their insurance deemed null and void). These tires are for winter conditions such as snow, slush or ice. If there are signs on rods showing that winter tires must be used, it is illegal to travel along such roads without having the tires. Not obeying the law would result in a fine of 5,000 Euros and a spell in the pound. If you can’t get winter tires it is legal to fit snow chains on the two front wheels but only in extreme conditions when the road is covered in snow or ice.
Switzerland has similar regulations to those used in France and you are not obliged to use winter tires, though for insurance purposes they are usually a safe bet. It is also optional as to whether you want to use spikes or snow chains unless road signs say otherwise. However, spikes are not to be used for motorway driving. You can only have studded tires from November 1 to March 31 when you can drive at 50 kms per hour in towns and at 80 kms per hour on motorways. Accidents caused by using summer tires during the winter will result in liability on the part of the driver, whether or not they have fully comprehensive insurance.
Motorists in Norway must always have the appropriate tires for the appropriate weather conditions. Drivers must therefore fit winter tires during the coldest months, but winter tires are not required for cars registered outside of the country.
In Sweden winter tires are only compulsory for Swedish nationals.
In Finland winter tires are required by law from the beginning of December to the end of February. This law also applies to cars which have been registered abroad.
Latvia and Estonia have the same regulations as Finland.
You must wear winter tires in Lithuania from November 1 to April 1.
In Slovakia winter tires are required in wintry conditions.
In Slovenia it is a requirement to use winter tires between November 15 and March 15, and you must use two winter tires per car (although we recommend four winter tires for optimum safety). If you only have radial tires and not winter tires, they must have a tread depth of four millimetres.
In Hungary cars must have winter tires and snow chains on board in case of icy conditions. This is also the case in Croatia and Lapland.
In countries such as the United Kingdom, Belgium, Denmark, The Netherlands, Poland, The Czech Republic and Spain there is no requirement to have winter tires. In Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxembourg however there can be snow near the German border and winter tires are recommended. Studs are forbidden in those low countries. Winter tires are recommended in Denmark. Poland and The Czech Republic because of wintry conditions and a high chance of snow and ice at that time of year. Studs are permitted in Denmark but not often used.
