Highway in Romania with vehicles and road signs

Most vehicles in Romania require a vignette. However, there is also an exception. We give you an overview of which vehicle classes exist and which requirements apply to your vehicle.

Motorcycles

As a motorcyclist, you do not need a vignette. You can relax and use the entire road network in Romania without having to worry about toll regulations. The only exception are the special toll routes, for the use of which all vehicles must pay a fee.

Cars

If you want to travel to Romania with your car, you need a digital vignette.

Cars with trailer

If you want to travel to Romania with your car and an attached trailer, you only need a digital vignette for your car and not for your trailer.

Motorhomes

If you want to travel to Romania with a motorhome up to 3.5 t, you need a digital vignette.

Commercial vehicles

Goods vehicles with a total weight of over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight no longer need a vignette as of 1 October 2026, and instead pay the distance-based toll TollRO. It is calculated based on the kilometres driven. Buses remain in the Rovinieta system.

Vehicle classes within the vignette requirement

Below, the various vehicles are assigned to their respective vehicle classes. Depending on the vehicle class, the price of the digital vignette also varies:

  • Category A: cars up to 9 seats, cars with trailers, and motorhomes up to 3.5 t

  • Category B: goods vehicles up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight

  • Category C: minibuses with 10 to 23 seats

Attention: special toll routes (route toll)
