In order to drive on Romanian national roads with a motor vehicle, an electronic vignette is generally required. Motorcycles are exempt from this requirement. Motorhomes are tolled like passenger cars, regardless of their gross vehicle weight. So always category A! For trailers, a distinction must be made between passenger cars and commercial vehicles:

• If your vehicle is a passenger car (vehicle class A), you only have to buy the vignette for the vehicle's license plate and the trailer does not have to be considered additionally.
• If your vehicle is a commercial vehicle (vehicle class B-F), you have to buy a vignette for the license plate of the vehicle, taking into account the total permissible weight of the vehicle and the trailer.

Thus, to determine the category, the total permissible weights of the commercial vehicle and trailer are added together. A total of eight vehicle categories (categories A-H) are distinguished. We will explain which category you need in the ordering process.

Buying the correct vignette is essential to avoid fines. Always check your vehicle's correct category before buying the vignette. You can check the validity of your vignette online at any time.

After you have paid for your order, we will immediately start registering your license plate in the vignette system. This usually takes less than 2 minutes! After successful registration with the official toll provider in Romania, you will receive a registration confirmation by email with all the required information. Your vignette is now valid and you can start driving!

Important to remember about your vignette:

1. The vignette is valid as soon as the registration is confirmed.
2. Keep the vignette confirmation for any later checks.
3. You can check the status of your vignette online at any time.
4. Make sure you have selected the correct validity period for your vignette.
5. The vignette is linked to the vehicle's license plate, not to a physical document.

We recommend buying the vignette at least one day before your trip to Romania to avoid any unforeseen delays. Driving without a valid vignette can lead to significant fines.

Yes, it is recommended to carry the registration confirmation as proof of the successful recording of the vehicle data in the database and of the validity period.

Important information about the vignette confirmation:

1. The digital vignette is the main proof of payment of the road toll in Romania.
2. The vignette confirmation can be kept digitally on your phone or tablet.
3. If the verification system has technical problems, the confirmation can be useful as additional proof.
4. The confirmation contains details about the vehicle, the validity period and the vignette category.
5. Even though the vignette is registered electronically, keeping the confirmation gives you extra peace of mind.

We recommend saving the vignette confirmation on your mobile device and keeping it at hand during your trip. Although checks are usually electronic, having the confirmation can help in exceptional situations.

Remember that not having a valid vignette can lead to significant fines. Always check the validity of your vignette before driving on Romanian national roads.

No. You no longer need a physical product after successful registration. The digital vignette is linked to your license plate number and the system automatically recognizes whether and for which period your digital vignette is valid.

Essential information about the digital vignette in Romania:

1. The electronic vignette has completely replaced the old system of physical stickers.
2. There is no sticker or physical proof of the vignette that must be displayed on the vehicle.
3. Vignette validity is checked exclusively electronically, by scanning the license plate.
4. You can check the status of your vignette online at any time using your license plate number.
5. Still, keep the electronic vignette confirmation for your own reference.

Advantages of the digital vignette:

• Easy to buy - you can buy the vignette online, at any time.
• Cannot be lost or damaged - being digital, the vignette cannot be lost or destroyed.
• Fast checks - the authorities can instantly verify the validity of the vignette.
• Flexibility - you can buy the vignette even for short periods, depending on your travel needs.

Remember that although you do not need a visible sticker, it is crucial to make sure you have bought and registered the vignette correctly before driving on Romanian national roads. Always check the validity of the vignette before your trip to avoid fines.

If you received a fine even though you have a valid vignette, you can lodge a complaint against the report on the finding of the contravention and the application of the sanction within 15 days from the date of its delivery or communication. The complaint is submitted to the court in whose constituency the contravention was committed (if the report does not specify another constituency).

Steps to follow if you receive a fine despite having a valid vignette:

1. Immediately check the validity of your vignette on the official website.
2. Collect all evidence of the purchase and validity of the vignette (payment confirmation, confirmation email).
3. Write a complaint explaining the situation and attach the proof of the valid vignette.
4. Submit the complaint to the competent court within the legal term of 15 days.
5. Keep a copy of the complaint and of all documents submitted.

Important tips on the vignette and avoiding fines:

• Always check the validity of the vignette before travelling.
• Make sure you entered the license plate number correctly when buying the vignette.
• Keep the proof of payment and the electronic confirmation, just in case.
• If you receive an unfair fine, act promptly to contest it.
• Consider buying the vignette a few days before your trip to avoid any technical problems.

Note that the electronic vignette verification system may sometimes be slow to update. If you bought the vignette very shortly before receiving the fine, this could explain the situation. In any case, with the right evidence, you should be able to resolve the problem through a complaint.
