VignetteDirect: Instant, Easy, and Official Swiss Motorway Vignettes. Trusted by tourists and transit drivers for compliant, stress-free journeys across the stunning Swiss landscape.
Buy Your Swiss Vignette NowA Swiss vignette is an essential requirement for most vehicles using Swiss motorways and certain A-roads. This toll sticker, or its digital equivalent, ensures your compliance with national regulations, allowing you to avoid potential fines and enjoy Switzerland's breathtaking scenery without interruption. VignetteDirect is designed to simplify the process of acquiring this vital travel document, whether you're a tourist planning an alpine adventure or a transit driver navigating through the heart of Europe. We make it easy to understand your obligations and meet them swiftly.
Virtually all vehicles and trailers up to a total weight of 3.5 tonnes must display a valid vignette to travel on Swiss national motorways. This includes standard passenger cars, motorcycles, camper vans, and even trailers pulled by such vehicles. It's a common misconception that only foreign vehicles need it; Swiss residents are also subject to this rule. The vignette system is a flat-rate toll, ensuring that all users contribute to the upkeep of Switzerland's world-class road infrastructure. Failure to present a valid vignette during a check can lead to on-the-spot fines significantly higher than the cost of the vignette itself, along with the obligation to purchase one immediately.
The vignette requirement applies to all national motorways, easily identifiable by their green directional signs, and also to some Class 1 highways throughout Switzerland. These are the primary arteries for long-distance travel and transit within the country. Upon approaching a motorway section where the vignette is mandatory, clear signage will indicate the start of the toll obligation. This extensive network covers most major routes, connecting cities, alpine passes, and border crossings. Therefore, if your itinerary involves any significant driving on main Swiss roads, securing a vignette beforehand is crucial for a smooth and lawful journey.
VignetteDirect has streamlined the process of obtaining your Swiss motorway vignette, transforming a potential travel chore into a quick and effortless online task. Whether you're meticulously planning your dream Swiss holiday weeks in advance or need a last-minute solution as a transit driver, our platform is designed for speed, security, and ultimate convenience. Say goodbye to border queues and frantic searches for sales points; your journey to compliance is just a few clicks away.

The Swiss vignette is a mandatory toll payment, effectively a road tax, required for most vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight using Switzerland's national motorways and certain highways. VignetteDirect provides a convenient and efficient online purchase method, delivering an instant digital confirmation once your license plate is registered.
The annual Swiss vignette offers an extended validity period. It is valid from December 1st of the year prior to the imprinted year, through the entire imprinted calendar year, and up to January 31st of the year following the imprinted year. This means it can be valid for up to 14 months (e.g., a 2024 vignette is valid from Dec 1, 2023, to Jan 31, 2025).
VignetteDirect facilitates the purchase of the official Swiss e-vignette. With the e-vignette, your vehicle's license plate is digitally registered in the Swiss federal system. This means there is no physical sticker that needs to be affixed to your windshield. You receive an instant digital confirmation of this registration via email, which serves as your proof of purchase.
A vignette is required for all motor vehicles and trailers with a total gross vehicle weight rating up to 3.5 tonnes. This includes passenger cars, motorcycles, camper vans, motorhomes, and light utility vehicles. If you are towing a trailer, the trailer itself also requires its own separate vignette if its GVWR is up to 3.5 tonnes.
You will receive your digital confirmation of vignette registration via email almost instantly after your payment is successfully processed through VignetteDirect. This prompt delivery ensures you can plan your travel with certainty, even if making last-minute arrangements.
The Swiss e-vignette is linked to a specific vehicle license plate number. Therefore, each vehicle that you intend to drive on Swiss motorways requires its own separate vignette registered to its unique license plate. You cannot transfer a vignette from one vehicle to another.
