Posted by Also in Slovenia, as for example in Austria and Switzerland, motorways and motorways are not free of charge. Vehicles (cars and motorbikes) weighing less than 3.5 tonnes require a vignette, which must be purchased and affixed to the windscreen before using the toll roads. There are no toll booths like in France or Italy. In Austria, the toll stickers are also called “Pickerl”.

There are three different vehicle categories and vignettes for three different periods for Slovenia. So there are nine different toll charge stickers in total.
Motorbikes (toll category 1) pay 7.50 euros for 7 days, 30 euros for half a year and 55 euros for a whole year.
Normal cars (under a height of 1.30 metres, toll class 2A) need a vignette in Slovenia for 15 euros (7 days), 30 euros (1 month) or 110 euros (one year).
Higher cars (toll class 2B) cost 30 euros (7 days), 60 euros (1 month) or 220 euros for a year. So you pay double for cars over 1.30 metres high compared to a lower vehicle.
If you are caught by the police in Slovenia without a toll sticker, you can expect big trouble. You pay at least 300 euros, often much more. Even vehicles or vehicle documents have been confiscated, especially if you don’t want to or can’t pay. Excuses like “I’m from abroad and didn’t know about the toll” usually don’t help.
Caution: The vignettes are only available for vehicles under 3.5 tonnes; heavier vehicles have to pay a kilometre-dependent road usage fee, similar to Germany.

You can already buy the vignettes for Slovenia in Austria and Italy at many petrol stations. This applies especially to motorway petrol stations in the direction of Slovenia and petrol stations near the border. In Slovenia, too, the stickers are available in many places, e.g. at the Slovenian post office and some shops and, of course, at petrol stations. In Germany you can buy the Slovenia vignettes at the ADAC, but as far as we know only for cars and only for 7 days. If you order them from the ADAC on the internet, you should allow for a delivery time of at least one week.
Monthly vignettes and 7-day vignettes can begin their validity on any calendar day. The annual vignette is always valid until 31.1. of the following year.
