Austrian Vignette: The Definitive Driver's Guide — we are dedicated to providing drivers with clear, accurate, and up-to-date information about Austrian motorway vignettes.
Our mission is straightforward: to eliminate confusion around Austrian motorway vignette requirements and help every driver — whether a first-time visitor or a seasoned commuter — travel legally and confidently on Austria's motorway network.
Too many drivers arrive at the Austrian border unprepared, either purchasing the wrong vignette type, overpaying through unauthorised resellers, or — in the worst case — driving without a valid vignette and facing fines. We exist to prevent these situations through clear, honest, and practical guidance.
ASF-Pass Vignette Guide was established in 2018 by a team of Austrian traffic law researchers and travel information specialists based in Vienna. Our founders noticed a significant gap in reliable, English-language information about Austrian motorway requirements — particularly for international visitors and transit travellers from Germany, Switzerland, and beyond.
Since our founding, we have helped thousands of drivers understand their obligations, choose the right vignette, and navigate Austria's motorway network without incident. Our team includes legal researchers specialising in Austrian traffic law, experienced travel writers, and digital content specialists.
We operate from our office at Favoritenstraße 44, 1040 Wien, Austria, and our team is available during business hours to answer queries via email or telephone.
