European route planning typically involves hundreds of kilometers through Germany, France, or Poland. However, sometimes a destination—or an optimal transit path—leads through European microstates. Liechtenstein, Andorra, Monaco, and San Marino are countries with unique characteristics where you won’t find massive satellite tolling systems or complex e-vignettes.
Transport company owners often wonder if entering these states involves hidden costs, the need for local devices, or special permits. Below is a complete summary of road tolls in these four specific regions for 2026.
Liechtenstein: Alpine Precision
Liechtenstein, situated between Austria and Switzerland, is strictly integrated with the Swiss system (using the Swiss Franc, CHF) but maintains its own road toll rates. The good news is that vehicles with a gross vehicle weight (GVW) up to 3.5 tonnes can travel on all roads in the Principality of Liechtenstein completely free of charge.
For heavy transport (over 3.5 tonnes), a kilometer-based fee called LSVA III applies, depending on the Euro emission standard, weight, and number of axles. Like Switzerland, Liechtenstein is highly pro-ecological—all zero-emission electric heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) are exempt from road tolls.
Full Tariff: Liechtenstein 2026 (Rates per tkm in CHF)
The fee is calculated using the formula: Weight (tonnes) x Rate (CHF/tkm) x Distance (km).
| Vehicle Mass | Number of Axles | Euro 6 (Cat. III) | Euro 4/5 (Cat. II) | Euro 0-3 (Cat. I) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.5 - 7.49 t | 2-3 | 0.0239 | 0.0282 | 0.0326 |
| 7.5 - 11.99 t | 2-3 | 0.0239 | 0.0282 | 0.0326 |
| 12 - 18 t | 2-3 | 0.0239 | 0.0282 | 0.0326 |
| > 18 t | ≤ 3 | 0.0239 | 0.0282 | 0.0326 |
| > 18 t | 4 | 0.0239 | 0.0282 | 0.0326 |
| > 18 t | ≥ 5 | 0.0239 | 0.0282 | 0.0326 |
Note: For the most accurate budgeting, use the official Swiss/Liechtenstein LSVA calculator as of Jan 1, 2026. While internal roads are often quoted with simplified rates, international transit through Liechtenstein typically involves unified Swiss-Liechtenstein customs declarations.
Andorra: Pyrenean Routes and the Tolled Tunnel
Andorra, hidden high in the Pyrenees on the French-Spanish border, is a state where transport heavily depends on weather conditions. The internal road infrastructure is entirely free, with no vignettes or kilometer taxes.
However, there is one significant infrastructure exception: the Envalira Tunnel. This nearly 3-kilometer tolled tunnel facilitates passage during difficult winter conditions (bypassing the high Pas de la Casa pass). Following the trend in Liechtenstein, electric trucks are exempt from Envalira Tunnel tolls in 2026.

Toll rates are fixed and depend on the vehicle’s physical dimensions. The settlement currency is the Euro (€).
| Weight Category | Physical Height | Number of Axles | One-way Fee (EUR) |
|---|---|---|---|
| ≤ 3.5 t (Vans) | ≤ 2 m | 2 | 8.10 € |
| Intermediate | 2 - 3 m | 2 | 14.20 € |
| Heavy Vehicles / Coaches | > 3 m or > 3.5 t | 2 | 16.30 € |
| Heavy Vehicles (TIR) | > 3 m or > 3.5 t | ≥ 3 | 20.30 € |
A hazardous goods supplement of €10.00 applies.
Monaco and San Marino: Free Roads with Limited Access
Both the Principality of Monaco (an enclave in France) and the Republic of San Marino (an enclave in Italy) are microstates that do not have their own road toll systems for heavy transport. No local vignettes or tolls are required.
However, keep the following operational aspects in mind:
- San Marino: Entry is possible only from the Italian road network. You must account for the standard Italian toll collected at the exit gate (e.g., Rimini Sud) before crossing the physical border into San Marino.
- Monaco: The Principality is extremely densely built. Truck movement over 3.5 tonnes is restricted by entry bans, weight limits on narrow streets, and the mandatory notification of deliveries to local police (Sûreté Publique). Heavy goods vehicles over 7.5 tonnes are generally prohibited except for specific routes to the Urban Distribution Center (CDU) “Monaco Logistique.”
Discover Our Route Calculator
You already know the rates and what to watch out for with currency conversions, but manually calculating costs for a route spanning thousands of kilometers is a direct path to errors. That is why we provide a tool that does it for you.
- Precision to the cent: Our calculator automatically determines road tolls based on each country’s unique regulations—from axles and weight to Euro/CO2 emission classes.
- The choice is yours: The system suggests alternative routes. Decide whether you prefer a faster or cheaper route, with travel time and final toll costs clearly displayed.
- Your fleet at your fingertips: Save your vehicles in the system once. You won’t have to re-enter parameters—simply select a truck, and the calculator applies its specific rates.
- Real-time cost optimization: Seeing the total toll cost before sending a truck allows for better freight pricing and avoidance of unprofitable orders.
Test it for free and without obligation. We offer a free trial period so you can see how the calculator handles your most frequent routes. No “catches” or hidden commitments.
