New Vignette 2025: Prices rise by 7.7 percent - what you need to know

For drivers in Austria, there are news that went through the media in the last November days: The new adhesive vignette for 2025 will be available in the striking color of the seagrree. With the entry into force on December 1, 2024, all users can stock up on time. This vignette will replace the current color of the sun yellow and keep its validity until January 31, 2025.

As announced by ASFINAG (Autobahn and expressway financing share company), the price for the annual car vignette will increase to EUR 103.80 in the coming year. This increase of 7.7 percent takes place in accordance with the harmonized consumer price index, after one year without price increase. "The selection of the color is significant because it can control the adhesive vignette better and more optimently - for advantage for our customers," said Claudia Eder, Managing Director of ASFINAG. The new color is intended to help clearly distinguish the vignette from its predecessor version.

The income from vignette sales are essential for ASFINAG because the company is fully user -financed. The proceeds flow directly into operation, construction and maintenance of the more than 2,200 kilometer motorway and express road network in Austria. These investments are crucial for security on the streets. The validity of the new vignette extends over 14 months, starting on December 1 of the previous year until January 31 of the following year.

The ASFINAG asks all drivers to take care of the new vignette in good time and refers to your website www.asfinag.at, where helpful information is available for correctly attaching and removing the vignette. These measures are not only important for compliance with the regulations, but also for safety and order in road traffic.
