\nImportant Information About Österreich Autobahn
\nThe Österreich Vignette
\nThe Österreich Vignette is a toll sticker required for most vehicles driving on Austrian highways and autobahns. Without a valid vignette, travelers may face fines and penalties.
\n\nCosts and Purchase Locations
\n- \n
- Vignette prices vary depending on duration (10 days, 2 months, or annual passes). \n
- Travelers can purchase the vignette at border crossings, gas stations, post offices, and online before entering Austria. \n
Consequences of Not Having a Vignette
\nDriving without a valid vignette incurs fines starting at €120 and possible traffic violations. Austrian authorities enforce these requirements strictly, so travelers must ensure the vignette is correctly displayed on the vehicle\'s windshield before using toll roads.
\n\nAdditional Toll Roads
\nBesides the vignette, some motorways, tunnels, and alpine routes require additional toll fees. Examples include several major tunnels and mountain passes on the Autobahn network.

\n- \n
- On-the-spot fines for missing or invalid vignettes. \n
