Digital Vignette Slovenia Vehicle classes in Slovenia

Vehicle classes in Slovenia

Last updated: 26.08.2026 Reading time: 2 Minute(s)

If you want to travel to Slovenia, you will either need a vignette or you will need to pay a distance-based toll to cover the applicable toll charges. Below you will find an overview of whether a vignette is required for your vehicle or whether you need to purchase a transmitter device for the distance-based toll at the toll stations on site.

Do you need a digital vignette?

Truck and bus on a Slovenian motorway viaduct

As a general rule, vehicles up to 3.5 t GVW are subject to the vignette requirement, while vehicles over 3.5 t GVW must pay a distance-based toll. However, exceptions may apply depending on the type of vehicle.

Motorcycles

A digital vignette is required for motorcycles to use the Slovenian road network.

Cars

A digital vignette is also required for cars to use the Slovenian road network. Vehicles with a front axle height of more than 1.3 m are subject to a higher toll category.

Combinations: cars and trailers

If the permissible total weight of the combination of car and trailer is a maximum of 3.5 t GVW, only a digital vignette is required for the car. However, if the total weight exceeds 3.5 t GVW, the vignette requirement no longer applies and a distance-based toll must be paid instead.

Motorhomes

Motorhomes up to 3.5 t GVW are subject to the vignette requirement. Motorhomes with a permissible total weight over 3.5 t GVW, on the other hand, must pay a distance-based toll; a vignette is not required in this case.

Commercial vehicles over 3.5 t GVW

For vehicles with a permissible total weight over 3.5 t GVW, the obligation to pay a distance-based toll generally applies. A vignette is not provided for this vehicle class.

Vehicle classes within the vignette requirement

Vehicles are assigned to different classes within the vignette requirement. The cost of the digital vignette also varies depending on the respective vehicle class.

  • Class 1: Motorcycles

  • Class 2a: Motor vehicles up to 3.5 t GVW with a front axle height of less than 1.3 m, as well as motorhomes up to 3.5 t GVW with an SA entry in Part I of the registration certificate and fixed living installations

  • Class 2b: Motor vehicles under 3.5 t GVW with a front axle height of more than 1.3 m

Please note: special toll route

The Karawanks Tunnel is a special toll route. Additional fees apply for the use of this tunnel, regardless of whether a digital vignette has been purchased or a distance-based toll has been paid. The tunnel connects Austria with Slovenia and is frequently used to cross the border. Although the Karawanks Tunnel itself is not subject to the vignette requirement, the access roads run along routes that do require a vignette. Travellers coming from Austria who wish to use the Karawanks Tunnel should therefore take into account both the additional tunnel fees and purchase a digital vignette for the access routes.
