Some Hungarian motorway vignettes will become brutally expensive!
Change language:
Despite the previous statements of the Hungarian Ministry of Technology and Industry vignette prices will increase more. According to the previous reports, the ministry did not plan to change the regulation regarding the price of motorway usage in the country. However, it is not bad news for everyone.
Not even two weeks have passed since the ministry made a remark on the question of whether vignette prices will increase or not. In the report, Minister of Technology and Industry László Palkovits said that they did not intend to change the regulation. According to the current regulation, vignette prices should have only increased by about 15 percent or in other words, by the inflation rate measured in August.
But the rules have been changed which is good news for those who buy annual vignettes, but it is terrible news for monthly and 10-day pass buyers and also for truck drivers.
New prices
Annual countrywide and regional vignette prices will only increase by 5 percent. This means that the price of the annual vignette will increase from HUF 47,000 (EUR 118) to HUF 49,190 (EUR 123). While the price of the annual regional vignette will increase from HUF 5,450 (EUR 14) to HUF 5,720 (EUR 14). For bus drivers, the increase will be the same, which means 5 percent.
