Vehicle classes in Slovenia
If you want to travel to Slovenia, you will either need a vignette or must pay a distance-based toll to cover the applicable toll charges. Below you will find an overview of whether a vignette is required for your vehicle or whether you need to purchase a transmitter device for the distance-based toll at the local toll stations.
Do you need a digital vignette?
As a general rule, vehicles up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight are subject to the vignette requirement, while vehicles over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight must pay a distance-based toll. However, exceptions may apply depending on the type of vehicle.
Motorcycles
A digital vignette is required for motorcycles to use the Slovenian road network.
Cars
A digital vignette is also required for cars to use the Slovenian road network. Vehicles with a front axle height of more than 1.3 m are subject to a higher toll category.
Combinations: cars and trailers
If the permissible total weight of the combination of car and trailer is a maximum of 3.5 t gross vehicle weight, only a digital vignette is required for the car. However, if the total weight exceeds 3.5 t gross vehicle weight, the vignette requirement no longer applies and a distance-based toll must be paid.
Motorhomes
Motorhomes up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight are subject to the vignette requirement. Motorhomes with a permissible total weight over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight, on the other hand, must pay a distance-based toll; a vignette is not required in this case.
Commercial vehicles over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight
For vehicles with a permissible total weight over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight, the obligation to pay a distance-based toll generally applies. A vignette is not provided for this vehicle class.
Vehicle classes within the vignette requirement
Within the vignette requirement, vehicles are assigned to various classes. The cost of the digital vignette also varies depending on the respective vehicle class.
Class 1: Motorcycles
Class 2a: Motor vehicles up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight with a front axle height of under 1.3 m, as well as motorhomes up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight with an SA entry in Part I of the registration certificate and fixed living installations
Class 2b: Motor vehicles under 3.5 t gross vehicle weight with a front axle height of over 1.3 m
Attention: special toll route
The Karawanken Tunnel is a special toll route. Using this tunnel incurs additional fees, regardless of whether a digital vignette has been purchased or a distance-based toll has been paid. The tunnel connects Austria with Slovenia and is frequently used to cross the border. Although the Karawanken Tunnel itself is not subject to the vignette requirement, the access roads run over routes that are subject to the vignette requirement. Travelers coming from Austria who wish to use the Karawanken Tunnel should therefore take into account both the additional tunnel fees and purchase a digital vignette for the access routes.
