Austria operates a vignette-based motorway toll system managed by ASFINAG (Autobahnen- und Schnellstraßen-Finanzierungs-Aktiengesellschaft). All vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes must display a valid vignette when using Austrian motorways and expressways. Failure to display a valid vignette can result in on-the-spot fines.
This guide is informational only. For official purchase and registration, always use the official ASFINAG channels or authorised retailers. We do not sell vignettes directly.
