A Vignette is a form of road pricing imposed on vehicles as a compulsory road tax, based on the time the vehicle may be used on the road. Vignettes are coloured stickers that need to be affixed to the front window of the vehicle. The Vignette system is different from road tolls which are based on distance travelled.
Vignettes are required for driving along certain roads, like motorways, in the following European countries: Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland and Austria. If you are caught driving in any of these countries without a vignette you will run the risk of being fined by the local authorities.
