Sans titre

In Hungary, the freeways, expressways and certain stretches of national main roads may only be used upon payment of a toll (freeway fee), i.e. by purchasing an e-vignette. Buy your digital vignette for Hungary here and you are free to go immediately.

Important notes for use

  • In order to select the correct vignette category, the following information from the vehicle registration document is relevant:
    • S.1 – number of seats according to registration
    • F.1 – permissible total weight
    • J – vehicle type (vehicle for passenger transport or for goods transport)
    • Vehicles of class M = passenger transport
    • vehicles of class N = carriage of goods
  • The Hungarian e-Vignette is not delivered by mail. After successful order, a confirmation voucher is sent immediately by e-mail, which must be printed out and carried in the vehicle.
  • The confirmation voucher and the registration certificates of the vehicle and the trailer have to be carried in the vehicle for control purposes
  • The validity date is determined during the order process. Start of validity can be on the same day of ordering.
  • The “1 week” vignette is valid for 10 days (from the selected day plus 9 additional days).
  • The “1 year” vignette is valid from the selected day until 31.01. of the following year.
  • Changes of data and cancellations cannot be made by tolltickets.
  • Umlauts, spaces, and hyphens are adjusted according to the toll operator when entering the license plate number.
  • The Hungarian e-Vignette is excluded from the right of withdrawal.

Validity and Use

All Hungarian toll freeways and expressways marked with an M are subject to tolls. in Hungary all motor vehicles up to and including 3.5t are subject to a toll sticker (e-vignette). Passenger cars with more than 7 seats are subject to higher tolls. The same applies to towing vehicles such as trucks and motor homes. Only certain routes can be used free of charge (e.g. the entire section of the M31 freeway). The Hungarian vignette, the e-Matrica, controls the toll online via the vehicle license plate. The price category is determined according to the official entry in the registration certificate. The vignette receipt must be kept for three years for evidence purposes in case of later complaints. We recommend that you obtain the e-vignette in good time before driving on toll roads.

e-Vignette types

1 day e-vignette

The 1 day e-vignette is valid on the day of purchase from the exact time of completion of the purchase (In the case of advance purchase, it is valid from midnight to midnight on the day given on purchase.)

10 day e-vignette

The 10 day e-vignette is valid for the start day indicated by the customer and an additional 9 days, for a total of 10 consecutive calendar days, until 00:00 of the 10th day.

Monthly e-vignette

The monthly e-vignette is valid from the start day indicated by the customer to 00:00 of the same (numerical) day of the next month: if there is no day of the same number in the expiration month, then the vignette is valid until 00:00 the last day of the month.

County e-vignette

The county e-vignette is an annual, territory-based vignette available for vehicles in categories D1M, D1, D2, U and B2, granting road use authorization on the toll speedway network of a specific county. More than one regional county e-vignette may be purchased for the same vehicle. The validity of this type of e-vignette is the same as the validity period of the annual road use authorization. The territorial scope of the county e-vignette extends outside the relevant county, up to the first junction past the county border. 

Validity: Valid for all the roads of the County indicated by the customer. Valid from the first day of the reference year until 00:00 January 31 of the year following the reference year. In case of purchase within the period of validity, the vignette provides road use authorization from the time of purchase. County e-vignettes may be purchased simultaneously for several different counties.

Yearly highway vignette

The yearly highway vignette is valid for all toll roads in Hungary. The validity starts from the first day of the reference year until 00:00 January 31 of the year following the reference year. In case of purchase within the period of validity, the vignette provides road use authorization from the time of purchase.

Fantastic Customer Service.
We ordered well in time prior to our travel.
However due to postal strikes & brexit, they didn't arrive on time.
Tolltickets were very understanding, and very helpful. Everything was done via email. They respond almost instantly. I wish more companies were like them, The world would be a better place if everyone worked to their standards. Thank you so much for your prompt responses, 1st class Customer service and the politeness of your whole team. We will definitely use you again next time we need the tollticket machines. Kind regards, Mr & Mrs Watson

I have been using Tolltickets for the past 5 years and they have been consistently super efficient. Their customer service has always been very good and delivery of Swiss vignettes extremely prompt and have never had any problems with picking up my toll boxes nor any problems with paying the invoices.

Anne Paul

We had been using the toll boxes for France and Spain from the company tolltickets for many years. Purchasing and installing the devices was very uncomplicated. The devices always worked perfectly at every toll station. The billing of the toll costs was carried out in a way that was absolutely comprehensible and was always correct. Within one day, we received competent, friendly and solution-oriented answers from the support team to inquiries by e-mail. Over the years we have always had a positive impression and can highly recommend this company and their products. We no longer need the toll boxes, but we would like to thank tolltickets for the very pleasant cooperation!
