Good to know
- No vignette: Sweden has no highway vignettes. Do not waste money on sites claiming to sell a "Swedish vignette."
- EPASS24: This is the primary system for foreign-registered vehicles. Register your plate to ensure invoices are delivered correctly and avoid administrative delays.
- Congestion tax: Applies in Stockholm and Gothenburg during peak weekday hours. The amount varies depending on the time of day you cross the city boundary.
- Rental cars: Most rental companies automatically charge these tolls and taxes to your credit card, often with a small administration fee.
- Bridge tolls: Certain major infrastructure projects, such as the Motala and Sundsvall bridges, have specific passage fees regardless of city entry.
