== Truck Tolls and Tollpass OBU in Bulgaria ==
+
 
−
Bulgaria uses GNSS technology to charge tolls for trucks, HGVs and vehicles which weigh over 3.5 tonnes. The satellite system charges rates automatically as the vehicle travels on a toll road using an on-board unit. Before the start of the trip, the user has to enter toll-related parameters like axle count and weight, which is verified by in motion sensors present on the roads.
+
== Coverage & Network Information ==
−
=== Toll rates, and how to pay truck tolls ===
+
 
−
For vehicles over 3.5 tonnes, toll fees are based on the total kilometres travelled. The price per kilometer depends on the axle count, weight and emission class of the vehicle. It also varies with the type of road. Truck toll rates are usually higher than bus rates.
+
=== Toll Road Network ===
 +
* **Total coverage:** 1,000+ km of motorways and national roads
 +
* **Major routes:** A1, A2, A3, A4 motorways plus selected national roads
 +
* **Border connections:** Direct toll road links to Romania, Serbia, Turkey, and Greece
 +
* **Free alternatives:** Local and regional roads available for most routes
 +
 
 +
=== Special Considerations ===
 +
* **Transit traffic:** E-vignette required even for brief crossings
 +
* **Commercial vehicles:** Different rules apply for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes
 +
* **Seasonal variations:** No price differences by season or time of day
 +
* **International integration:** Compatible with neighboring countries' electronic systems
