Final weeks for toll stickers. Electronic vignette is coming to sale in December at edalnice.cz

“The difference between the classic toll sticker and the electronic vignette is not only in the different sale point and the fact that it will no longer has to be stuck on a car window and then scraped off. The one-year vignette will be valid for 365 days and will be available for purchase during the year,” said Mr. Karel Havlíček, minister of transport.

Thus, the drivers do not have to buy the one-year vignette by the end of January at the last minute. The system allows buying the vignette 90 days in advance and the driver can choose its validity. They will also receive a notification of impending expiry.

The online sale of electronic vignette for 2021 will begin in about a month, i.e. on 1 December 2020 at edalnice.cz. The price for 2021 remains the same; CZK 1,500 for one-year vignette, CZK 440 for one-month vignette and CZK 310 for 10 days vignette. It will also be easier to make a large purchase for a corporate fleet.

Similarly to this year, vehicles powered by electricity, hydrogen or in combination with another fuel (CO2 emissions up to 50 g/km) will be exempt from the fee. The same exemption applies to persons owning a special disability card without a need to notify this exemption.

Drivers of electric vehicles without special EL licence plate must notify the exemption via online form on edalnice.cz. The form can be then sent in an electronic form (via data mailbox or with a verified electronic signature) or in a paper form with verified signature via post or delivered personally to the State Fund for Transport Infrastructure seat. 

The fee for vehicles powered by natural gas or bio methane is lower. The one-year fee is CZK 750, the one-month fee is CZK 220 and the 10 days fee is CZK 155. These vignettes will also be available at edalnice.cz.

The first toll stickers were used in the Czech Republic 25 years ago, in 1995. At that time, the toll applied to 570 kilometres out of 651 kilometres of motorways and motorway-road network. The new electronic vignette will be valid for 1,024 kilometres of tolled infrastructure.
