Vehicle Classes Hungary
Depending on the vehicle class, your vehicle is subject to the vignette requirement or the distance-based toll. You can order your digital vignette conveniently and easily from home with us! First, however, we would like to show you which vehicle classes require a vignette.
Do you need a vignette?
In Hungary, vehicles up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight require a (digital) vignette. A distance-based toll must be paid if your vehicle weighs over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight. However, there are also exceptions. The following vehicle types will help you decide whether you need a vignette or whether the distance-based toll applies to you:
Motorcycles
You need a vignette.
Cars
For your car up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight, you need a vignette.
Combinations (towing vehicle + trailer)
You must purchase a vignette if your combination does not exceed 3.5 t gross vehicle weight. As soon as your vehicle is over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight, you must pay a distance-based toll.
Motorhomes
Motorhomes are subject to the vignette requirement regardless of their gross vehicle weight. Motorhomes over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight require vehicle class D2 for this. Since January 1, 2026, a distance-based toll is no longer possible for motorhomes.
Trucks
Trucks over 3.5 t gross vehicle weight must pay a distance-based toll.
