E-vignette (dialničná nálepka) for travelers in Slovakia

Motorway tolls in Slovakia are collected with a digital vignette that is linked to your license plate, so there is no sticker to collect and nothing to display in the windscreen. It is required on all motorways and expressways, and can be bought for 1 day, 10 days, 1 month or a full year. Motorbikes are exempt. Pick the class that matches your vehicle below. Confirmation is instant and your order is completed within 2 minutes.

Vehicles < 3.5 tUp to 3.5 t laden weight

TrailersOver 3.5 t laden weight

Toll roads in Slovakia

With a few exceptions, all motorways (diaľnica) and expressways in Slovakia are subject to tolls. Roughly 435 kilometres of motorway are tolled today, out of a planned network of about 700 kilometres. The vignette is digital and linked to your license plate, so there is no sticker to collect and nothing to display in the windscreen.

Motorways and expressways

D2Kúty — Bratislava — Hungarian border

D3Žilina — Skalité (Polish border)

A handful of urban sections around Bratislava and Košice are toll-free, and ordinary first- and second-class roads never require a vignette.

Vignette regulations for vehicles with a total weight of less than 3.5 t

The vignette is required for all vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes total weight, including camper vans and minibuses. Motorbikes are exempt in Slovakia and pay nothing at all.

A trailer or caravan with a laden weight over 3.5 tonnes needs its own vignette in addition to the towing vehicle. A light trailer towed by a car up to 3.5 tonnes is covered by the vignette of the towing vehicle.

Prices and validity periods

You can choose between the following validity periods:

1 day
10 days
1 month
1 year

The annual vignette runs from 1 January until 31 January of the following year, so a vignette bought for the current toll year is still valid in the first month of the next one. Shorter periods start on the date you select and run to midnight of the final day. Prices in this checkout are shown in your own currency, converted at the current rate, and include our service fee.

Toll regulations for lorries

Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes are not covered by the vignette. They pay a distance-based electronic toll based on the kilometres driven, the number of axles and the emission class, settled with an on-board unit registered before entering the motorway network.

Sales points

Vignettes are sold at petrol stations near the border and at selected sales points inside Slovakia. Ordering online before you leave registers your plate in advance, saves you the queue at the border and gives you a proper e-mail receipt and invoice within minutes of paying.

Fines

Enforcement is automatic through camera gantries and mobile units. Driving without a valid vignette leads to a fine that far exceeds the price of an annual vignette, issued to the registered keeper of the vehicle, and it applies to foreign-registered cars as well.

Transfers, plate changes and start date

A Slovak vignette is linked to one license plate and cannot be transferred to another vehicle, and the registration number cannot be changed once the vignette has been issued.

The start of validity cannot be postponed after purchase. Pick the correct start date at checkout, or add the Flex option and we handle changes and cancellations for you up to 24 hours before the vignette becomes valid.

Who is exempt from a vignette

Motorbikes and mopeds
Emergency, police, fire and military vehicles
Vehicles over 3.5 t, which pay the distance-based toll instead
Vehicles of disabled persons registered for a Slovak exemption
