Tolls in Austria: everything you need to know

Note for motorhomes: From 1 December 2023, the calculation of the toll obligation in Austria will no longer be based on the maximum permissible gross weight (hzG) but on the technically permissible gross mass (tzGm). In future, the technically permissible maximum laden mass (tzGm) will determine whether a vehicle is subject to the vignette obligation or route toll (up to 3.5 tonnes tzGm) or the GO toll obligation (more than 3.5 tonnes tzGm).

Transitional period until 31 January 2029: For all vehicles registered before 1 December 2023 

. December 2023 

  • with a technically permissible maximum laden mass of more than 3.5 tonnes and 
  • with a maximum permissible laden weight of no more than 3.5 tonnes, 

applies until 31 January 2029. The vignette obligation and route toll for vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes (tzGm) will continue to apply until 31 January 2029 (§ 33 Para. 18 Z 8 BStMG).

"GO-Box" or "Mautbox"?

The "GO-Box" is the toll box of the Austrian toll operator ASFINAG and is specifically and exclusively activated for Austria. The "toll box for vehicles over 3 m in height" from maut1 can be used in Austria instead of the GO-Box for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes in weight.

Your advantages with the maut1 toll box: 

  •  No need to top up credit 
  •  No need to upload the vehicle registration document

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about tolls in Austria

The driver must also enter the number of axles here. Only commercially used vehicles must set the number of axles. If your vehicle is registered as a commercial vehicle, you must check whether the current setting is correct every time you drive in Austria. To check the number of axles, briefly press the button on the toll box. The current setting lights up. To change the number of axles, press and hold the button until the next number of axles lights up. Once the correct number of axles has been set, you can drive off.

You will receive a vehicle declaration with your delivery. The vehicle declaration is a letter containing the relevant vehicle data. In Austria, you are obliged to carry this document with you and to present it during inspections.

In Austria, please always listen for the "beep". If the box emits no or 4 "beeps", you must report to a GO-Point within 5 hours / 100km to pay the toll.

The "Go-Box" is the Austrian toll box and is distributed directly by ASFiNAG. The Go-Box from Austria is functional for all vehicles over 3.5 tonnes and only for Austria. Our toll box from maut1.de is suitable for other countries. One box - several countries! 
The car toll box is the perfect companion for Spain, Portugal, France and Italy. The car toll box is not suitable for Austria. In Austria, you need a vignette for the toll with a vehicle under 3.5 tonnes.  The motorhome toll box works for all vehicles over 3.5 tonnes and therefore completely replaces the Austrian "Go-Box" toll box. In addition, our toll box for motorhomes (vehicles over 3.5 tonnes) can also be used for Spain, Italy, Portugal and France.

Yes, German drivers can drive on the A1, A12 and A14 motorways to Salzburg or Kufstein (connection to Kitzbühel) without buying a vignette.

Vehicles and large motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes GVW have to pay the toll in Austria on a distance-based basis using a toll box. A certain amount is charged per kilometre driven, depending on the EURO emission class and the number of axles, among other things. All other vehicles are subject to toll stickers on toll routes in Austria. Vignettes are small stickers that are affixed to the windscreen of the car or, more simply, are registered digitally and are valid for a certain period of time (e.g. 1 month).

No, the digital vignette costs the same as the conventional adhesive vignette.

If you are caught driving on an Austrian motorway without a valid vignette, you will have to pay a replacement toll of 120 euros for vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes. The replacement toll for motorbikes is 65 euros.

The vignette must have been purchased before you set off - either online or as a vignette that is attached to the windscreen. The toll in Austria is compulsory. Those who do not adhere to the rules must reckon with high replacement toll payments.

Note for motorhomes: From 1 December 2023, the calculation of the toll obligation in Austria will no longer be based on the maximum permissible gross weight (hzG) but on the technically permissible gross mass (tzGm). In future, the technically permissible maximum laden mass (tzGm) will determine whether a vehicle is subject to the vignette obligation or route toll (up to 3.5 tonnes tzGm) or the GO toll obligation (more than 3.5 tonnes tzGm).
