Nine countries

Vignettes in nine countries

Where you need a vignette, what you risk without one and where to buy it, for every country Routava watches. Each guide lists the motorway crossings too, and whether the vignette applies from the border line.

Questions

Which countries in Central and South-East Europe need a vignette?

Routava covers the nine that do: Slovakia, Czechia, Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, Switzerland, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova. In six of them the vignette is for motorways and expressways; in Romania, Bulgaria and Moldova it is needed on every main road from the border.

Is a vignette the same as a toll?

A vignette is a time-based charge: you pay once for a day, ten days, a month or a year and drive as much as you like. Tolls by distance (Austria's tunnels, Italy's motorways) are separate and Routava does not cover them.

How do I know whether my car has one?

Add the car in Routava: it asks each country's register, or a vignette seller that reads it, and shows every vignette with its last day. Where nobody can say, it says so and warns you as if there were none.

Can I drive on ordinary roads without a vignette?

In Slovakia, Czechia, Austria, Hungary, Slovenia and Switzerland, yes: only motorways and expressways need one, and Routava warns only on those. In Romania, Bulgaria and Moldova the vignette is needed from the border on every main road.

Know before the border.

Routava checks your car's vignettes in all nine countries and warns you, out loud and on your car's screen, before a border where it has none. In beta on iPhone, Apple Watch and CarPlay; Android and Android Auto close behind.
