Tolls and the vignette in Slovakia
How the Slovak vignette works
The local term is diaľničná známka, also e-známka. It is digital, tied to the plate and valid on motorways and expressways for vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes.
The trailer rule
If the towing vehicle and trailer together exceed 3.5 tonnes, an additional vignette is required for the trailer. Anyone travelling with a caravan or a heavy trailer should check this before the border — Austria has no such rule, Slovakia does.
Periods and prices
From short transit periods up to an annual vignette. What we arrange is listed on the Slovakia country page; a run towards Hungary or Poland is usually covered by the 10-day vignette.
Enforcement
Fixed cameras and mobile units check plates without stopping anyone. Your confirmation email is the proof; no sticker is issued.
