Czechia tolls light vehicles through Edalnice e-vignettes on most D and R networks. A digital vignette ties your plate to a validity window so cameras and patrols can verify compliance without a sticker.
Read the short country guide for travellers before you pay.
Choose standard or eco vehicle type, then a duration from one day to one year. Set your validity start, enter plate country and registration, add your email, review the basket, and pay on the secure checkout page.
A Czech vignette is only valid where Edalnice applies. Crossing into Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Poland , or other neighbours requires their respective toll products. Plan each border separately.
Wrong category (standard vs eco) or wrong plate can invalidate coverage. Use the format hint for your plate country. If checkout errors occur, correct the fields and retry.
Expanded reference from national operator and roadside-marketing material: network coverage, exemptions, vehicle rules, flex-style services where mentioned, and list-price tables. Swiss pages also include separate tunnel and car-loading tables that are not covered by the annual vignette.
Toll charges in the Czech Republic are collected through an e-vignette via the Edalnice system. The digital vignette is linked to a vehicle registration number. After payment you receive confirmation by e-mail (and optionally SMS where offered).
Motorways use the prefix “D” (Dálnice) and expressways “R” (Rychlostní silnice). With few exceptions, all motorways and expressways require a vignette.
The following motorway sections are commonly cited as exempt or partially exempt in reference material. Always confirm on the official Edalnice map before relying on an exemption:
| D0 | Prague city ring: partially toll-free |
|---|
| D1 | Prague – Brno (exits 182–210) |
|---|
| D1 | Brno – Ostrava (exit 354 to Polish border) |
|---|
| D3 | Veselí nad Lužnicí north – Bošilec (exits 104–109) |
|---|
| D5 | Plzeň – Prague (exits 89–67) |
|---|
| D6 | Cheb – Karlovy Vary (exits 162–131) |
|---|
| D7 | Chomutov – Louny (exits 18–78) |
|---|
| D11 | Sedlice – Kukleny (exits 84–90) |

On D2, D5 and D8 you may drive up to the first motorway service area without a vignette; toll applies beyond that point.
Use the official Edalnice map for compulsory toll sections; third-party schematic maps may be outdated.
Vehicles up to 3.5 t need an e-vignette on tolled D and R networks. Motorbikes and trikes (fewer than four tyres) are exempt. No separate vignette is charged for trailers.
Therefore there is effectively one light-vehicle toll category on this site: passenger cars and goods vehicles up to 3.5 t, plus the dedicated eco tariff where your vehicle qualifies.
Common validity lengths: 1 day, 10 days, 30 days, 1 year. Validity runs through 23:59 on the last calendar day. Annual products follow Edalnice calendar rules (example from source: annual validity may span from 1 December of one year into January of the year after next).
List prices are in Czech koruna (CZK). Marketing copy may show GBP with a refresh rate (example: 1.00 £ = 28 Kč, last updated 14/05/2026). Purchases can typically be made up to 30 days in advance. Resellers may add a service fee at the final step.
Since 2024, eco discounts apply for qualifying plug-in hybrids (up to 50 g/km CO₂) and for natural gas / biomethane vehicles at published percentages; pick eco only if your vehicle meets Edalnice evidence rules.
Official e-vignettes are sold online, at border vending machines, Czech Post branches, and some petrol station networks (e.g. EuroOil in reference material).
Enforcement is mainly by video surveillance after border crossings or motorway slip roads. Fines can be severe; reference copy cited up to about £730 for driving without a valid vignette, up to about £6,900 for abuse of exemptions, and about £170 if exempt vehicles are not registered/deregistered within 10 working days.
You cannot move a vignette to another vehicle. Plate changes for loss/theft/destruction follow Edalnice procedures with supporting documents and the authorisation code from your confirmation.
Before the first valid day, some flex-style retailer products allow a plate change for the same vehicle category. During validity, Edalnice may allow limited character corrections and one country change with an authorisation code. Czech-registered vehicles whose plates change in the national vehicle register may not need a manual submission if both old and new numbers appear in the register.
Only where a flex-style service is booked can validity usually be shifted before the first valid day. If you set the start date to “today”, some operators block later plate changesconfirm in Edalnice before buying.
