Digital Vignette 2025 Now available: How to benefit immediately!

In Austria, the digital vignette for 2025 comes with exciting innovations! From now on, this is not only available from the ASFINAG web shop, but also very conveniently at the ÖAMTC bases. Buyers benefit from the fact that the long consumer protection period of 18 days is eliminated, as the ÖAMTC clearly emphasizes. This can start the validity immediately after purchase, which is particularly advantageous for spontaneous drivers. The digital vignette is no longer binding to the vehicle, but to the license plate - a real plus for owners of change marks, which can now also acquire a vignette for test drives.

Further important information concerns the changes to the vignette, because after the start of the validity, a change in the license plate is only possible with the help of the order confirmation. This contains the necessary product ID. ASFINAG also informs that unauthorized persons can also access the system in order to check the validity of a license plate. This means that even with rental cars or privately left -handed vehicles, it can be ensured whether there is a valid vignette.

data protection and revelations for data processing

But that's not all! ASFINAG also knows about the sensitivity of the data that is collected when buying and using the digital vignette. The insights of the web application are recorded by the Dynatrace company, analyzed the click path and technical details. While all cookies have been accepted, data such as IP address are also collected and automatically deleted after 35 days. Users have the right to inspect their personal data and to insist on deletion or correction if necessary, as the General Data Protection Regulation provides for. ASFINAG also issues information about the rights of those affected to ensure maximum transparency.

With these innovations and the focus on data protection, ASFINAG sets a sign of a modern and safe toll system in Austria. Here, both the immediate availability of the vignette at ÖAMTC locations and the careful handling of personal data are important, which improves the entire toll experience for users.
