A vignette for the Czech roads must be purchased only when using the above expressways and motorways.

Toll roads can be easily identified by the white and green road signs located along the road. There are also a few roads surrounding large cities, such as Prague and Brno, which are exempt from the vignette requirement.

Vignette control

Based on the vehicle license plate, the control authorities – the Police of the Czech Republic and the Customs Administration of the Czech Republic – determine whether you have a valid electronic vignette or whether your vehicle is exempt from the toll requirement.

Vignette checks are carried out on toll sections of motorways using patrol vehicles with camera systems recognizing vehicles’ number plates, via a remote connection with control gates or in the form of checks at MOPs and car parks.

Penalties

Vignette checks are carried out regularly, and not having a valid one can result in financial penalties. You can receive a fine of up to CZK 20,000.

Moreover, the check also traces the potential unlawful use of toll exemptions. Vignette system violation, for example, using toll exemption when not being entitled to do so, may cost a driver up to CZK 100,000 fine.

A fine of up to CZK 5,000 applies when a driver entitled to a toll exemption uses a tolled motorway section but did not submit an exemption notice.

The same amount of fine may be imposed on individuals failing to notify the State of Transport Infrastructure Fund within 10 business days that the reason required for exemption of the vehicle has ceased to exist.
