Durations and prices

For crossing the country the shortest one is usually enough. If you’re staying longer, compare: two short ones can cost less than one long one.

Why Vignette Point

What we check for you before you pay

The right category

Car, motorbike, motorhome or van: we filter by type and weight so you never buy a vignette that isn’t valid for your vehicle.

The cheapest option for your dates

If two 10-day vignettes cover your trip for less than a 2-month one, that’s what we suggest.

Way there, way back and your stay

On a return trip we cover the days you cross each country and your whole stay at your destination.

100% digital, no stickers

It’s registered to your number plate. Keep the confirmation email in case you’re asked for it at a check.

FAQ

What people ask us most

Is there a Swiss 10-day vignette?

No. There is only the annual one and it goes by year, not purchase date: the 2026 vignette is valid from 1 December 2025 to 31 January 2027.

When is it valid from?

It goes by year, not by purchase date: the 2026 vignette is valid from 1 December 2025 to 31 January 2027.

Do I need a vignette if I am only passing through?

Yes. It applies from the first kilometre of motorway, even if you are only passing through. For a short transit the shortest duration, which is also the cheapest, is usually enough.

How do I know my vignette is active?

We email you the confirmation with the country, plate and validity dates. Keep it on your phone during the trip in case you are asked for it.

Can I buy it before my trip?

Yes. You choose the day it starts and it is ready when you arrive. Next year’s annual vignettes go on pre-sale before the year begins.

What if I mistype my plate?

Before you pay we show the plate exactly as it will be registered so you can check it. If you still spot a mistake, write to us as soon as you notice and we will help you fix it.

Towing a caravan or trailer: do I need another vignette?

It depends on the country. In Switzerland the trailer or caravan needs its own vignette; each country page explains which vehicles need one.

Can I use the same vignette for another car?

No. Each vignette is linked to one plate. If you travel in another vehicle, you need a vignette for that plate.

Can I buy vignettes for several countries at once?

Yes. In “Plan your trip” you enter your route, choose the duration and date for each vignette and pay for everything at once.

What is the Unlimited Vignettes plan?

All the vignettes you need for your plate for €49/month. Every purchase includes a free 7-day trial, and you can cancel anytime from your account.

Who is Vignette Point?
