Frequently Asked Questions

Do motorcycles pay tolls in Norway?

No, motorcycles and mopeds are exempt from road tolls at automatic toll stations. However, some special local exemption schemes may apply.

Can I get an AutoPASS tag at the border?

No, AutoPASS tags for light vehicles cannot be obtained at Norwegian borders. You must order well in advance or use Epass24 for foreign vehicles.

What happens if I don't pay my toll invoice?

Late payment results in additional fees, and persistent non-payment can lead to debt collection and legal action. Pay invoices promptly to avoid escalating costs.

How much discount do electric vehicles get?

Zero-emission vehicles receive 30-100% discounts depending on location. With an AutoPASS tag, you get environmental pricing plus the standard 20% discount.

Can I use my AutoPASS tag in other countries?

AutoPASS tags work on some bridges and ferries in Denmark and Sweden through EETS partnerships, but coverage varies by provider.

What if I'm driving a rental car?

Rental cars should be registered with AutoPASS by the rental company. If not, ensure you register with Epass24 to avoid the rental company's administrative fees.
