Notes

  • Sweden has no motorway toll or vignette for cars. Charges apply only in central Stockholm and Gothenburg and on three bridges. The pages read do not cover other crossings, such as the Øresund bridge to Denmark, or heavy-vehicle charges.
  • Congestion tax: a surcharge of SEK 500 applies if payment is late. Bridge charges: a late fee of SEK 300 applies, and a surcharge of SEK 500 if that is not paid in time. The payment deadline is the date printed on the invoice.
  • The number of days is not fixed: Transportstyrelsen sends one invoice at the end of each month for the previous month, and payment is due by the date shown on it.
