Toll in Romania
Toll payments in Romania are handled through the e-vignette (rovinieta), which is linked to your vehicle's license plate.
Register online
You can easily register an e-vignette (rovinieta) online at Tollvignettes.com using a credit card, PayPal, or another payment method. After completing your registration, you'll receive a confirmation email, ensuring a quick and hassle-free experience when traveling on Romania's motorways.
In Romania, toll costs are charged on motorways (autostrăzi), expressways (drumuri expres), and national roads (drumuri naționale). These are marked as A, DX, and DN. A valid e-vignette (rovinieta) is mandatory for travel on these roads.
The roads that are part of the European network, marked with an E, also pass through Romania. These E-roads coincide with the motorways (A) and national roads (DN).
A valid e-vignette (rovinieta) is required for the following sections:
The motorways including European roads: A1 (E81, E68, E79, E671, E68), A2 (E81, E87), A3 (E60), A4 (E87), A10 (E81), A11 (E671), A0 (E81).
The national roads including E-roads: DN1 (E60), DN2 (E85), DN6 (E70), DN7 (E68).
The expressway including E-road: DX12 (E574).
In addition to the e-vignette (rovinieta), the following bridges require a separate toll fee:
Fetești-Cernavodă Bridge (A2 Motorway)
Giurgeni-Vadu Oii Bridge (DN2A)
Calafat-Vidin Bridge (Romania-Bulgaria border)
Giurgiu-Ruse Bridge (Romania-Bulgaria border)
01. Exceptions
An e-vignette (rovinieta) is not required on national roads that pass through cities, towns, and villages between the entry and exit signs of the locality.
All vehicles with at least 4 wheels are required to register an e-vignette (rovinieta). Motorbikes, trikes, and trailers are therefore exempt from the e-vignette requirement.

Unlike other countries, driving in Romania with a lorry also requires an e-vignette (rovinieta). Lorries fall under categories E and F, depending on the number of axles. So be aware that Romania is an exception and does not use distance-based toll systems.
Driving without a valid e-vignette (rovinieta) can lead to hefty fines. Don’t take the risk—make sure your vehicle is registered with the correct Romanian e-vignette before starting your journey.
In Romania, driving on toll roads without a valid e-vignette (rovinieta) is not permitted, and there is no grace period for driving without one. If you are caught driving without a valid e-vignette, you can be fined immediately. So make sure you are not accidentally driving on a Romanian toll road.
The obligation to have a valid e-vignette (rovinieta) in Romania is monitored using multiple methods to ensure compliance:
Automatic camera systems: License plates are scanned by automatic cameras installed on toll roads to verify the presence of a valid e-vignette (rovinieta) or an exemption in the CNAIR database.
Patrol cars: Romanian Police and Customs Administration vehicles are equipped with license plate recognition cameras to conduct on-the-spot checks for compliance.
Inspections at rest stops: Vehicles may be inspected at rest stops or parking areas by authorities to confirm the validity of their e-vignette (rovinieta).
If you have not registered a motorway e-vignette (rovinieta) or have registered the wrong one, you will always face a penalty, as both scenarios are treated as not having a valid e-vignette at all.
No, Romanian e-vignettes (rovinieta) are not transferable between vehicles. The rovinieta toll system strictly links the e-vignette to the vehicle's registration number at the time of registration, ensuring it is valid exclusively for that specific vehicle.
If you sell your car or change your license plates, the e-vignette cannot be transferred to a different vehicle or a new registration number. In these situations, you will need to register a new Romanian e-vignette (rovinieta) for the new vehicle or updated registration.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to postpone the start of validity after registering an e-vignette (rovinieta). Once the registration is completed, the selected validity period is fixed and cannot be adjusted. Therefore, we recommend carefully selecting the desired start date during the registration process.
The following vehicles are exempt from registering a Romanian e-vignette (rovinieta):
Emergency Vehicles: Vehicles operated by emergency services such as ambulances, fire trucks, and police vehicles are exempt from tolls.
Military Vehicles: Military vehicles operated by the Romanian Armed Forces or allied forces for official purposes do not require an e-vignette.
Public Service Vehicles: Vehicles used by public utility companies (e.g., electricity, gas, water services) are exempt while performing tasks related to infrastructure maintenance and repair.
Diplomatic Vehicles: Vehicles with diplomatic plates or those operated by consular services are exempt from the e-vignette requirement.
Agricultural and Forestry Vehicles: Tractors and machinery exclusively used for agricultural and forestry activities, provided they remain off public roads outside their work areas, are exempt.
The following neighbouring countries of Romania also have compulsory tolls to finance and maintain their motorways:
