Toll Vignette-Required Routes
In Slovakia there are a large number of toll-vignette-required routes. In order to be allowed to use these, you must therefore purchase a vignette in advance. If you use roads requiring a vignette without one, fines may be imposed. Therefore, avoid this risk and pay attention to the roads requiring a vignette.
Digital Vignette
On nearly all motorway and expressway sections in Slovakia, a vignette requirement applies. Sections without fees are marked with signs displaying ›BEZ ÚHRADY‹. The digital vignette (also called e-vignette) for Slovak motorways and expressways has replaced the original sticker vignette and has existed since 2020.
Not every vehicle is subject to the vignette requirement. In addition to the vignette requirement, there is also the route-based toll in Slovenia. For more information on the various vehicle classes and when your vehicle is subject to a vignette requirement or the route-based toll, you can find our article on vehicle classes and on the toll in Slovakia.
