Window tinting laws for NL?
Help.. I can't seem to find the legal answer for this. My F36 doesn't have tints right now but I'm planning on getting it tinted but I'm also moving to NL next year so I want to make sure it will be legal when I get there. Anybody here knows the legal tint limit or should I not tint the car at all. Thanks!

Thats correct. According to the European law you have a year grace period to change your car to the local requirements after you are a full enlisted and approved citizen of the desired country.
Same thing for your numberplates, if you are an Armymember, consult your bureau for exact details to avoid any troubles.

Dutchy here. As far as I know, rear windows can be tinted as much as you like (as long as you have a right side outside mirror). Front side windows can be tinted to a maximum of 50% light transmittance.
I checked online and am fairly certain I am right. Just don't forward your fines to me in case I turn our to be wrong. Where are you moving from, and where to? |

Thanks for the information on this. I would like to do more research so can you please forward the link to me, if you have it. Thank you for the information. I don't know how dark 50% will be. Hahaha
I'm living in Germany now, so its only a 2.5 hours drive, but work is there so I'm moving closer. |

Side tinting of front windows are not allowed into Germany. As long as you dont import such a car, I wouldnt try

In the NL the front windshield and front side windows must have a minimum of 55% light transmission, which means a tint limit of 45%.

Here is a pic of my F11 with 55% windows tint for the front door. It kind of difficult to see, because 55% is not so dark. The back windows are tinted 35%
