No. Dutch law prohibits window tint exceeding 35% light transmission on front side windows and windshields, rendering 50% tint illegal. The Reglement Verkeersregels en Verkeerstekens 1990 (RVV 1990) enforces this under Article 5.10, with penalties including fines up to €140. Local authorities like the Rijksdienst voor het Wegverkeer (RDW) conduct roadside checks, and 2026 amendments may tighten enforcement via mandatory roadworthiness inspections.
