Frequently asked questions
Do I need a vignette in Austria?
Yes. Every vehicle up to 3.5 tonnes using Austrian motorways (Autobahn) or expressways (Schnellstraße) must have a valid vignette. This includes transit trips — even passing through for 20 minutes requires one.
What is the fine for driving without a vignette in Austria?
The substitute toll is €120, payable on the spot. If not paid, penalties can escalate up to €3,000. Automatic cameras scan license plates, so getting caught is essentially guaranteed.
How fast does the digital vignette activate?
The 1-day and 10-day digital vignettes activate immediately after purchase. Unlike the 2-month and annual versions (which have an 18-day legal waiting period when bought directly from ASFINAG), short-term vignettes are usable right away.
Does my vignette cover the Brenner Pass or Arlberg Tunnel?
No. Several special routes require additional tolls: Brenner Pass (A13), Arlberg Tunnel (S16), Karawanken Tunnel, Tauern Tunnel, Pyhrn Autobahn. These are paid separately at toll stations. The regular vignette covers the rest of the network.
Can I use the vignette if I change my license plate?
No. The digital vignette is linked to a specific license plate number. If you change plates (new car, new registration), you need to purchase a new vignette. Store your confirmation email — you may need it to claim a partial refund from ASFINAG in case of a total loss.
Do motorcycles need an Austrian vignette?
Yes. Motorcycles need their own vignette (at a reduced rate). The digital version is linked to the plate, so it works the same way as for cars.
