Bulgarian e-vignette: types and validity
The vignette is electronic: it is linked to the licence plate and the country of registration – nothing is stuck on the windscreen. Here you can buy it for one day, a weekend, 7 days, 1 month, 3 months or 1 year.
The 1-day vignette is valid for 24 hours from activation and can only be bought for today. The weekend vignette is valid from Friday 12:00 to Sunday 23:59 (bought during the weekend: from the purchase). The other types start on the day you choose; you see the exact end date before you buy.
After payment we buy the vignette, usually within a few minutes, and send you the confirmation by e-mail. The vignette is for vehicles up to 3.5 t; heavier vehicles pay a distance-based toll.
Before you travel to Bulgaria
Before you travel, check that you carry your driving licence, the vehicle registration certificate and proof of insurance. Buy the vignette before you drive onto a road that requires it: plates are checked by cameras. The Danube bridges (Ruse – Giurgiu, Vidin – Calafat) are paid separately; the vignette does not cover them.
