AUSTIN, Texas — Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Supervised) software is moving closer to a continent-wide green light in Europe, with the European Union's Technical Committee on Motor Vehicles set to take up the system on June 30 after a rapid run of national approvals.
In just two months, the Netherlands, Belgium, Estonia, Lithuania and Denmark have each cleared FSD for use on their roads, building the kind of momentum Tesla has long sought on the continent. The Danish approval, reported by Electrek, made the country the fourth in Europe to authorize the driver-assistance suite in a matter of weeks, and Tesla has continued to add jurisdictions since.
A Growing Map of Approvals
Each national sign-off matters because it expands the real-world footprint where Tesla owners can use the same supervised autonomy features that drivers in North America have enjoyed for years. Tesla has been methodically working through Europe's patchwork of regulators, and the company's recent additions to the FSD feature set — including Grok voice control and parking memory — underscore how quickly the product is maturing.
The bloc-wide path runs through the Technical Committee on Motor Vehicles, or TCMV, which is scheduled to discuss FSD on June 30. A favorable recommendation there would set up an eventual vote on mutual recognition across all 27 member states, allowing a single approval to unlock the entire EU market at once.
The Speed-Offset Question
Not every regulator is ready to wave the system through immediately. Sweden's transport authority has asked the committee to require changes to FSD's "Speed Offset," a feature that lets a driver choose to travel slightly above the posted limit, before backing a bloc-wide rollout. Finland and Norway have raised their own technical questions.
Tesla supporters note that the speed-offset behavior mirrors how human drivers already operate and remains fully under the driver's control, and that the company has a strong track record of tuning features to satisfy local rules. With FSD already legal in a growing list of countries, the engineering path to address the remaining concerns appears narrow and solvable.
What Comes Next
For full EU recognition, committee members representing 55% of member states and 65% of the bloc's population must vote yes. Industry trackers expect the June 30 session to be a discussion rather than a final vote, with the decisive ballot likely later in 2026. Tesla, meanwhile, keeps stacking national approvals — the same grassroots momentum its owners have shown elsewhere, including New Jersey drivers rallying behind the robotaxi future.
The direction of travel is clear. Every new country that says yes strengthens the case for a unified European approval, and Tesla's expanding European FSD map suggests the company is closing in on one of the largest autonomy markets in the world.
