Questions drivers ask
What is the fine for driving without an e‑vignette?
Up to 20,000 koruna in administrative proceedings, and up to 5,000 koruna if it is settled on the spot (eDálnice and the public administration portal, checked 29 August 2026). Claiming an exemption you do not qualify for is treated far more seriously, at up to 100,000 koruna.
Is an electric car exempt?
Yes. A vehicle running only on electricity or hydrogen needs no Czech e‑vignette at all. A CNG or LNG vehicle pays a reduced eco rate of 1,280 koruna a year, and a car emitting at most 50 g of CO2 per kilometre pays 640 koruna (eDálnice, checked 29 August 2026). LPG does not qualify for either.
Can I get the eco rate through you?
No. We sell the standard rate only, so if your car qualifies for the eco price or for the exemption above, you are better off buying at the official shop or buying nothing at all. Paying our standard price for a car that Czechia charges 640 koruna a year would be a poor trade.
How far ahead can I set the start date?
With us, up to 28 days. eDálnice sets its own limit as a date rather than as a number of days: when we last read its calendar, on 7 September 2026, it offered every start up to 31 October and would not open November at all. We stop short of that limit so the day you pick is one the shop will still sell. A trip further out is best paid for nearer the time.
Who checks, and how would they know?
Czech police and the Customs Administration, using camera systems on the charged sections that read plates against the register, remote checks at control gates, and inspections at rest areas. A photograph is taken only when a violation is detected, and it is deleted once the period for proceedings has passed (eDalnice, checked 29 August 2026).
Do motorcycles need a Czech e‑vignette?
No, and the reason is worth knowing: the charge is written for vehicles with at least four wheels, which leaves two-wheelers outside it rather than merely discounted. Riding through Czechia costs nothing in e‑vignettes. Anyone selling you a Czech motorcycle e‑vignette is selling you something that does not exist.
