In part

Approved in a handful of EU countries, led by the Netherlands. The Netherlands granted the first EU type approval and several countries have recognized it. France declined as it stands, a few Nordic countries are objecting, and others are pending. The table below tracks every country, each cell dated and sourced.

Tesla FSD (Supervised) is approved in a growing set of EU countries, led by the Netherlands, whose RDW type approval is the one the later national go-aheads recognize. Lithuania, Estonia, Denmark, and Belgium have approved it too. France has declined for now, Sweden, Finland, and Norway are objecting, and Greece and Latvia are pending. Because approval largely flows from a shared EU type-approval process, the map is likely to move with a coming EU vote rather than country by country.

    Declined to sign off as it stands: the minister judged the safety trade-offs insufficient, citing speeding (about 70 km/h in a 50 zone) and driver-attention gaps in urban maneuvers. Not a ban. France seeks an EU-wide sign-off, with the next TCMV vote expected around October 2026.
