Truck tolls in Europe, country by country

Romania · TollRo

How it works

Distance-based toll (TollRo) since 01/10/2026 for goods vehicles over 3.5 t, whatever their country of registration. The rate depends on the mass, the Euro class and the road type.

Network

National roads, expressways and motorways managed by CNAIR. Crossings of municipii (cities with municipal status) are not tolled.

Indicative cost

• 0.48 lei/km — motorway (incl. VAT) ≈ €0.090/km (NBR rate of 07/10/2026: €1 = 5.3501 lei)
• 0.24 lei/km — national road (incl. VAT) ≈ €0.045/km (NBR rate of 07/10/2026: €1 = 5.3501 lei)

12 t or more, Euro VI

Rate for a vehicle or combination of 12 t or more, Euro VI, including VAT, on motorways or expressways and on national roads. The other categories and Euro classes are in the calculator.

Paying with a foreign vehicle

CNAIR's free mobile app, open to foreign users, or a route ticket paid before departure, valid 72 h for a single trip. According to CNAIR, payment by on-board unit through European Electronic Toll Service providers opens on 15/01/2027.

Penalties

Unpaid toll: the TollRo due is claimed, or 2,000 lei if the distance cannot be established (no more than once every 12 h). After a camera check, paying within 72 h ends any penalty; otherwise, a fine of 10 to 20 times the toll due, or 5,000 lei.

Electric trucks

No exemption or specific rate for electric trucks: have the applicable rate confirmed by CNAIR.

The system's launch was hit by outages: user protection in the event of a malfunction and calls to suspend penalties are still evolving. TollRo: Romania's distance-based HGV toll — rates, payment, enforcement →

France · Autoroutes concédées

How it works

Tolls on concession motorways, set by each operator and for each section. HGVs pay class 4 (more than two axles and over 3.5 t). Two regional per-kilometre taxes have been announced: the R-Pass in Alsace and the Grand Est HGV eco-contribution (ECPL).

Network

Concession motorways only, with toll barriers or free-flow (A79). National roads and most non-concession motorways are toll-free.

Indicative cost

• €0.25/km to €0.35/km — Rate varies by section and motorway operator. (incl. VAT)
• Typical trip: A6 from Fleury-en-Bière to Villefranche-Limas (APRR), 430.28 km, €139.10 in class 4 (rates as of 01/02/2026). (incl. VAT)

Rates vary by section and motorway operator: there is no single cost per km. The range gives the order of magnitude in class 4, including VAT; the typical trip comes from one operator's rate table.

Announced · R-Pass · Planned for 01/01/2027

Per-kilometre tax of the European Collectivity of Alsace on the A35, the A36 and four departmental roads, from 01/01/2027. Payment by toll tag or e-ticket.

Announced rate: €0.146/km (Euro VI, over 32 t)

Announced · ECPL · Start date not yet set

Paying with a foreign vehicle

Toll tag from an accredited European Electronic Toll Service provider (SET in France), bank card or cash at the barriers. On free-flow sections, payment is made online within 72 h of passing.

Penalties

Unpaid toll: 4th-class offence. The user can pay the toll plus a flat-rate charge of €90 within 2 months; on free-flow sections, the charge drops to €10 if everything is paid within 15 days. Otherwise, an increased fixed fine of €375.

Switzerland · RPLP/LSVA

How it works

Performance-related heavy vehicle fee (RPLP/LSVA), based on the kilometres driven and the vehicle's mass, according to its emission category. A Euro VI vehicle falls into the cheapest category.

Network

All public roads in Switzerland, motorways included, for goods vehicles over 3.5 t.

Indicative cost

• 0.0239 CHF per tonne-kilometre, i.e. 0.956 CHF/km for 40 t (VAT not specified by the source) ≈ €1.027/km (ECB rate of 09/10/2026: €1 = 0.9313 CHF)

The RPLP/LSVA is charged per tonne-kilometre, so the cost per km depends on the mass. It is calculated here for a 40 t combination, the maximum mass taken into account.

Paying with a foreign vehicle

EETS on-board unit from an accredited provider or, for a foreign vehicle without one, an online declaration before entering Switzerland (NMTS).

Penalties

Intentional evasion: fine of up to 5 times the fee evaded. Breach of declaration obligations (unit switched off, undeclared trailer, etc.): fine of up to 20,000 CHF.
