The most convenient way to make your Brenner motorway toll purchase is through Tollwayr. The vignette is digitally connected to your license plate and proof of your registration is e-mailed by ASFINAG. Your vehicle's license plate number will be electronically recognized at the toll station so you can drive right through.

Where Is The A13 Brenner Toll Road?

The A13 Brenner Toll Road starts near Innsbruck and travels over 15.5 miles (approximately 25 km) to the Italian border at Brenner Pass. The adjacent Italian stretch is called the A22, commonly referred to as the Brennerautobahn, Autostrada del Brennero, or simply Autobrennero. While you do not need a vignette for Austria to drive this stretch of motorway, you will need to drive to the Brenner via the A12 Inntal Autobahn, which means you still need both. You will need to pay a toll for both directions: from Austria to Italy and the other way around.

On the road

While it is possible to pay the Brenner Pass toll cost at toll booths along the highway, we do not recommend this. Waits can be as long as several hours, significantly lengthening drive times.

Trucks, buses, and motorhomes heavier than 3.5 t must use the Go-Box to pay for the Brenner Motorway toll. This on-board unit is available at ASFINAG GO points of sale in Austria and overseas. It is installed in your truck and will record and process the toll automatically when you drive on the motorway.

How To Use The Digital Toll For The Brenner Motorway

The key toll station on the Brenner is situated just south of the Schöneberg exit, specifically on the Brennerautobahn A13 at 6141 Schönberg im Stubaital. As you pass through the Schönberg toll station, the electronic license plate recognition system activates, allowing you to continue without stopping. A dedicated green lane for the section toll ensures a smooth, congestion-free passage. We’ve included an image below highlighting the special lane you can use.

If the bar isn't opening automatically you’ll need to hold the QR code before the camera. Below we’ve shown which QR we refer to.
