E-vignette Slovenia

Toll charges in Slovenia are collected through a digital vignette (also called E-Vinjeta) via the Dars payment system. The motorway vignette is linked to a vehicle registration number and can be purchased online from vintrica. You can purchase the Slovenian vignette quickly and easily using PayPal, online banking or a credit card. A confirmation will be sent to your e-mail address and, if you wish, you will receive a text message confirmation that you can show at a checkpoint.

The following motorways require a vignette:

Motorways (hitre ceste)

At the beginning of 2020, five expressways existed, some of which were upgraded to motorways in the course of motorway expansion and thus cease to exist in the blueprints, while others were downgraded to rural roads.

Karawanks Tunnel

The Karawanks Tunnel is excluded from the general vignette obligation in Austria and Slovenia, instead a special toll of around £6.70 is charged for passing the tunnel and can be paid on site at the Hrušica toll station. The special toll is only valid for a single trip through the tunnel and does not count as a return trip. Therefore, the points card for the tunnel is worthwhile for frequent drivers. With the points card, you can pass the tunnel 14 times in 30 days for around £30.20.

Regulations for vehicles

The fee depends on the vehicle you are driving. The following e-vignettes are available in Slovenia:

Toll regulations for lorries

For vehicles exceeding the total weight of 3.5 t, a route-dependent toll is charged. To log the distance, you must apply for a transponder from DarsGo and attach it to the inside of the windscreen. The cost depends on the kilometres driven in Slovenia, the number of axles and the Euro emission class. To register your vehicle in the DarsGo system: Click here.

Sales points

You can purchase the vignette for all vehicle categories in Slovenia here at vintrica.com, at petrol stations near the border or at DARS sales points.

Fines

If you drive in Slovenia without a valid vignette, you will be subject to heavy fines. We therefore recommend buying a digital vignette before you start your journey. In addition, you should check the validity of the electronic vignette before and after purchase so that you can act quickly if there are any problems.
