Buy your vignette online in minutes:
Travelling by car or motorcycle in Switzerland? A valid motorway vignette is legally required on all Swiss motorways and national roads where the vignette obligation applies. This requirement is established under Swiss federal law and applies from the moment you enter the country.
The vignette is mandatory for motor vehicles and trailers up to 3,500 kg, including passenger cars, motorhomes, and motorcycles. Switzerland offers both a sticker vignette and a digital vignette (e-vignette). Compliance is enforced by the Federal Customs and Border Security Office and cantonal authorities.
The Swiss digital vignette is fully recognised under Swiss federal law. It is electronically linked to the vehicle’s licence plate. No windscreen sticker is required when using the e-vignette.
