Croatia

Planning a trip to Croatia? On this page you will find information about motorway vignettes, toll payment methods and rules for driving on paid roads.

Driving on the road

No vignette (unlike Austria, Czechia or Slovenia). Autoceste are paid by the kilometre — you pay only the stretch you use.

Most A-class motorways are paid (green signs). A1 Zagreb–Split–Dubrovnik is the spine. Some D/S roads near borders or bridges may be paid. County and local roads are free.

Official class I (cars) sample (as of January 2026): Zagreb–Split €26.40. Full table: hac.hr toll rates. Pay cash, card or ENC.

Extra: Učka tunnel (A8) is charged on top (class I examples about €4–8 depending on entry). Krk bridge and Pelješac bridge are free — Pelješac reaches Dubrovnik without crossing Bosnia.

Motorway without a ticket or ENC: fine from €150. Unpaid Učka-type objects ~€200; repeat or late payment up to ~€400. Foreign owners get mail.

Speed limits for cars ≤3.5 t: motorway 130 / express 110 / rural 90 / urban 60.

Alcohol 0.5‰. Winter tyres 15 Nov–15 Apr if snow or ice. Mandatory kit: triangle, first-aid, vest, extinguisher, spare wheel.

Green Card required for foreign and UA-registered cars. Same tariffs as everyone else — no UA discount.

ANPR at entry and exit. Keep the ticket until you pay. Summer Adriatic traffic is heavy — ENC or a card-ready lane saves time.

There is no Croatian car vignette to buy in advance; only the stretch you drive is billed.
