Applicable toll systems
The Swiss toll system works differently depending on the vehicle’s licence plate (foreign or Swiss).
- Foreign licence plates
For vehicles registered abroad, the charge is levied with an ID card at a processing terminal.
- Swiss licence plates
Vehicles registered in Switzerland must be equipped with an OBU (On Board Unit EMOTACH) installed at authorised mounting stations. The OBU determines the mileage from the tachometer.
