Vignette Price Index 2026

Vignette price index 2026: official annual, monthly and short-term prices for every European vignette country, verified against official operator sources.

The Autovig price index puts the official 2026 vignette prices of every European vignette country into a single, verified comparison. All amounts come directly from the national operators (ASFINAG, DARS, edalnice and others) and are re-checked on a fixed cycle.

2026 in one sentence: the cheapest annual vignette among the major transit countries is Switzerland at 40 CHF — but it is sold only as an annual product, with no short-term option. At the top end sit the annual vignettes of Slovenia (€117.50) and Austria (€106.80), with the Czech Republic almost level with Austria. Several neighbours — Slovenia, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary — already run a digital-only vignette; Austria follows from 2027.

As of July 2026. The current price in the official operator portal always prevails; the sources linked below take precedence.

Index metrics

From the same data, the index computes the figures that matter most in practice and to the press:

Price per day for a typical 10-day trip (short-term vignette divided by validity days).
Annual ranking from cheapest to most expensive.
Share of countries already digital-only (no sticker vignette).

Methodology

This index follows the same verification protocol as all Autovig data:

Primary sources: official national road and toll authorities only — no aggregators or scrapers.
Review cycle: weekly for Tier-1 countries, monthly for the rest; every data point carries its own verifiedAt date.
Source precedence: in case of any discrepancy, the current price in the official operator portal always wins.

The full methodology is described under Transparency & Data Methodology.

FAQ

Which annual vignette is cheapest in 2026?

Among the major transit countries, the Swiss annual vignette is the cheapest at 40 CHF — but it is sold only as an annual product. For a few days of driving, other countries' short-term vignettes are often cheaper.

Which countries are digital-only in 2026?

Slovenia, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Hungary already run a digital-only vignette. Austria offers the sticker vignette for the last time in 2026 and switches fully to digital from 2027.

How current are the prices in this index?

Each entry carries its own check date (verifiedAt). Tier-1 countries are re-checked weekly, the rest monthly. The official operator price always prevails.

Do the prices include section tolls?

No. The index shows the vignette prices only. Section and special tolls (e.g. Brenner, Tauern, Karawanken in Austria, or tunnel charges) apply on top, depending on the route.
