The Mairie de Lauris informs that the eligibility criteria for the "heavy haulers" fuel aid have been relaxed for the end of 2026, allowing more workers to benefit.

It is now possible to benefit from the "heavy haulers" fuel aid of €100 for the period of October to December 2026. The rules have been modified, notably by raising income ceilings, allowing 5.5 million workers to qualify for this aid, whereas they could not benefit previously.
To be eligible, one must notably travel more than 30 km round trip as part of their professional activity and use their personal vehicle. A simulator is available on the tax authority's website to check eligibility.
Eligible individuals can access the application form for the October to December 2026 period. For any questions, a FAQ and a step-by-step guide are available.
For those who have already benefited from the previous aid, no additional steps are required: the payment of €100 for the October to December period is automatic.
