Driving a motorhome in Poland

Motorways, tolls and vignettes

What a vignette is: in some European countries you buy a permit before using the motorways, now often digital and linked to the number plate, valid for a set period instead of paying at toll booths.

Up to 3.5 t you only pay on some concession motorway sections, for example parts of the A1, A2 and A4, usually at the booth; the rest of the network is free.

Over 3.5 t you pay the e-TOLL charge on motorways and many national roads, with the app or an on-board unit.
