Toll in Bulgaria

Toll payments in Bulgaria are made through a digital vignette system known as the Bulgarian e-vignette (e-vinetka). The vignette is electronically linked to your vehicle’s license plate, so there’s no physical sticker required.

Toll roads in Bulgaria

In Bulgaria, vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes gross weight are required to have a valid digital vignette when driving on the national toll road network. This network includes the country’s motorways (автомагистрали) and national roads that connect regions and border crossings.

The Bulgarian vignette obligation applies not only to the fastest routes but also to several main roads that form part of the republic road network. Tolls are collected electronically through license plate registration and camera enforcement.

In short: if you are travelling by car in Bulgaria, you must have a valid vignette before driving on any toll road.

  • A1 (E80 E773) from Sofia via Plovdiv and Stara Zagora to Burgas

Additional toll bridges in Bulgaria

In addition to the national toll road network, Bulgaria also charges separate tolls for two Danube River bridges connecting the country with Romania. These bridge tolls are not included in the Bulgarian vignette and must be paid separately at the crossing points.

  • Ruse – Giurgiu Bridge (Friendship Bridge) – A toll of approximately €2 / 4 BGN applies to passenger cars when leaving Bulgaria via this bridge.

  • Vidin – Calafat Bridge (New Europe Bridge or Danube Bridge 2) – A toll is collected directly at the crossing for all vehicle categories.

Both bridges serve as major international transit routes between Bulgaria and Romania, and tolls are payable in cash (BGN or EUR) or by card at the toll booth.

Toll regulations for lorries and heavy vehicles in Bulgaria

Since 1 March 2020, Bulgaria has operated a distance-based toll system for all vehicles over 3,500 kg, replacing the old e-vignette. The BG Toll system applies to lorries, buses and heavy goods vehicles using the national toll road network.

Tolls are calculated using GNSS satellite technology, so there are no toll gates or barriers. The price per kilometre depends on:

  • Vehicle weight class

  • Number of axles

  • Emission standard (EURO I–VI)

  • Road type (motorway or main road)

Since 15 October 2025, a weight-in-motion system has been active across the BG Toll network, automatically checking the real-time weight of vehicles above 3.5 tonnes.

How to pay

You can pay the Bulgaria truck toll in two ways:

  1. Route pass (for single journeys)

  2. On-Board Unit (OBU)

Fines and enforcement

The BG Toll system uses cameras, mobile control units and weight sensors to ensure compliance. Driving without valid toll payment can lead to fines up to BGN 1,800 (≈ €920) for heavy vehicles.

Frequently asked questions about the Bulgaria vignette

Yes. All vehicles with a maximum permissible weight of up to 3,500 kg must have a valid Bulgaria vignette to use the country’s motorways, expressways and national toll roads. Only motorcycles, tricycles and other vehicles with fewer than four wheels are exempt.

The e-vignette is required for both domestic and foreign-registered vehicles and must be valid before entering any toll road.

The vignette is mandatory on all motorways (автомагистрали), expressways, and most major first-class roads within the national Republic Road Network. This network is defined in Decree No. 959/31.12.2018 and includes routes that connect Bulgaria with neighbouring countries such as Romania, Greece, Serbia and Turkey.

Even some key national roads outside motorways are tolled, so it’s safest to assume you’ll need a vignette for most intercity travel.

The easiest and safest way to buy your Bulgarian e-vignette online is through Tollvignettes.com. Simply enter your license plate number, select your vehicle class and validity period, and pay securely by card or PayPal. Once payment is complete, your vignette is activated instantly and linked directly to your license plate. You’ll receive a confirmation by email. No sticker or paper is required.

The Bulgarian e-vignette becomes valid immediately from the start date you select during purchase. You can also buy a vignette up to 30 days in advance of your trip. The validity period always begins at 00:00 on the chosen date and ends at 23:59 on the last valid day.

Yes. If you’re towing a trailer or caravan with a vehicle weighing up to 3,500 kg, you’ll need to buy a separate vignette for the trailer. It must match the same validity period as your main vignette and is registered to the trailer’s licence plate.

Driving on a Bulgarian toll road without a valid e-vignette is considered unauthorised road use and leads to fines issued automatically through the BG Toll camera system. For cars and light vehicles, the fine starts at around BGN 300 (€150), while for heavier vehicles it can reach up to BGN 1,800 (€920).

There is no official grace period in Bulgaria, even if you buy a vignette shortly after entering a motorway, the fine still applies.

Yes. You can buy a Bulgarian e-vignette at most petrol stations, border crossings, BG Toll terminals, and service points throughout the country. However, buying your vignette online through Tollvignettes.com is faster, safer, and available 24/7. Ideal for travellers entering from abroad.

Yes. Motorcycles and scooters are exempt from toll payments in Bulgaria. They can use motorways and expressways without an e-vignette.
